Melbourne and Regional Atlases - Teaching Resources
Melbourne Atlas | Regional Matters
The Department of Planning and Community Development (DPCD) and the Geography Teachers Association of Victoria (GTAV) have jointly developed a selection of learning materials based on the Melbourne and Regional Atlases.
The collection of teaching resources with classroom and take-home activities, support teachers and encourage secondary students to access the Melbourne and Regional Atlases in their studies. These activities have been written by practising geography teachers for use in Victorian schools and are all clearly linked to either the VELS or VCE curriculum.
