Sequencing and Scaffolding

 

An Instructional Leadership textbook for Australian secondary Schools

A practical guide to strengthen teaching and learning outcomes.

Any teacher reading this will have experienced professional learning that has been irrelevant to their needs, has failed to be sustained, has been ignored by colleagues or has simply failed to make any impact.

This book’s prime focus is to make positive classroom reform realistic and sustainable by demonstrating the means to make professional learning relevant, impactful and sustainable.

As a ‘how to’ manual, it translates the ‘what and why’ of contemporary educational research into the ‘how and when’ of actual teaching. Through numerous, real school examples, it carefully signposts the way to enhance the instructional leadership capacity of existing and aspiring secondary school executives.

Based firmly on the principles of explicit teaching, the book melds diverse educational topics such as cognitive science; academic literacy; intellectual quality; learning and assessment design; evaluating Teaching and Learning programs; classroom management; evaluative thinking and strategic planning into a unique professional learning compendium.

Tides of Memory

 

A Living History of Yorkeys Knob

Tides of Memory begins with a simple truth: a place is never only land and coordinates. It is woven from memory, shaped by relationships and carried in the stories people tell. Yorkeys Knob is not just a headland on a map, but a living shoreline of experiences — marked by beauty, resilience and the quiet continuities that tie generations together.

The stories held here rise from interviews, community gatherings, family albums and treasured keepsakes. They are created in companionship — with residents who opened their homes, their archives, and their hearts. Through this shared making, a deeper trust forms and a legacy grows — one that stretches beyond the final printed page.

Across four chapters spanning the late twentieth century to the present, voices of the community speak to changing seas, shifting climates and the evolving rhythms of daily life. Their testimonies trace how Yorkeys Knob bends and transforms, yet holds close the values that anchor it.

This book is also an invitation — to listen, to wander, to explore further. The Tides of Memory Interactive Map continues the journey: follow the QR code to walk through stories mapped onto place. And as you travel through these histories, we welcome your reflections on how we remember, write and share the living fabric of a community.

Dr Daniela Vávrová

 

I’m a visual anthropologist, independent researcher, and former Curator at the Cairns Museum, with roots in Bratislava, once part of Czechoslovakia. My work has always been driven by curiosity – about people, cultures and the ways we understand the world through images, words, and sensory experience. Since 2005, I’ve spent long stretches of time in the East Sepik Province of Papua New Guinea, where my PhD project and film, Skin Has Eyes and Ears, grew from close relationships and everyday observations. These days, my skills in storytelling, ethnography and visual communication have taken on new forms through cybersecurity work and private investigations. Life in remote Yorkeys Knob keeps me grounded and inventive as I juggle research, parenting my 11-year-old son, helping at Yorkeys’ Gem Rent-a-Car, and creating photographic calendars featuring the place I call home.
