'Twenty-six young people from around Australia tell their story about the day that changed their lives forever and how the events of 24 hours can fundamentally change attitudes and aspirations.
In an upbeat, visual feast of social media inspired storytelling, MY:24 is a factual entertainment series chronicling the life-changing events that have shaped a diverse and fascinating collection of young Australians.
The 26 highly aspirational stories are told by 11-21 year olds. In each episode, the young person is the driver of their own story - it's told from their perspective and in their own words.
Each individual story takes us on a personal journey to relive their ‘MY:24’ event and the transformational impact it’s had on their life.'

'This article outlines how teachers curate Australian screen content for use in classrooms from pre-school to senior secondary school. It suggests teachers use their professional knowledge of curriculum and pedagogy to arrange screen resources, curriculum concepts and student experiences to promote learning. This complex curatorial process adds value to broadcaster and producer curation processes that aim to position cut-down clips and educational resources for classroom use. The article draws on a national research project that undertook interviews with 150 teachers in schools across Australia. The authors suggest the ongoing digital disruption of the school sector presents both opportunities and challenges for the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, The Special Broadcasting Service and the Australian Children’s Television Foundation.'
