Introduction

My Place Asia Australia website is for teachers and students across the middle years of schooling. The site has been designed to incorporate key curriculum guidelines outlined in the Studies of Asia Statement for Australian Schools and provide ideas for teachers in the Visual Arts and Society and Environment learning areas.

The Art Gallery displays over 100 artworks and stories about special places in the lives of young people from schools across Australia, China, Korea and India.

These artworks have been catalogued into eleven different themes. After the artworks and stories were created, a series of exhibitions were held across these countries.

During these exhibitions other young people had the opportunity to observe these artworks and their responses have been included for your information.

Questions have been developed to help you understand and learn more about these important places across Australia and Asia.
