Lesson Summary
Retired AFL star Adam Goodes is known to many for his resilient journey in the face of detrimental treatment by AFL spectators and the media beginning in 2013.
In this lesson, students move from activating their existing understanding of power to gaining a deeper and more nuanced understanding of what power can look, sound and feel like. Students access written and audio-visual resources to build their knowledge and support their analysis. Then students analyse how different individuals project power. Students develop their own criteria to determine who is the more powerful of two prominent Australian figures.
