A unique opportunity to expand your knowledge and complement your classroom learning by hearing from our academic experts! Explore our ARTiculate Talk Series designed for high school teachers and students.
Introduced in 2021, the ARTiculate Talk Series aims to provide senior high school students and teachers with free, additional support in HSC subjects related to English, CAPA, HSIE, Languages and PDHPE subjects.
Aligned to the curriculum and delivered by academic experts in the field, the talks complement the understanding of key concepts taught in the classroom while providing a deeper understanding into the topics studied.
These talks are designed to be a resource for teachers, and they provide a unique opportunity to engage with our outstanding academics as they share their knowledge and latest research and teaching insights.
Award-winning American writer George Saunders says: “It’s a natural thing, to be creative”.
In this webinar, we cover practical strategies to refine your discursive and imaginative drafts, and hone your natural creative instincts. We explore ways to develop a strong purpose and a believable sense of voice or character – and we consider choices of form and style to best support your intentions and engage your reader.

Australia’s minimum age of criminal responsibility (MACR) remains set at 10 years across most jurisdictions, placing it among the lowest in the developed world. This webinar examines the case for raising the MACR to at least 14 years of age. It explores six key areas: (i) international human rights frameworks; (ii) comparative international evidence demonstrating the benefits of higher ages of criminal responsibility; (iii) the operation of the principle of doli incapax in Australia; (iv) contemporary neuroscientific evidence; (v) the disproportionate impact of criminalisation on disadvantaged children, particularly Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander young people; and (vi) evidence on youth offending.
Our ARTiculate talk topics are developed in consultation with our high school teacher communities.
