Moorditj in Primary Schools

The contents of Moorditj are suitable for a wide range of students and the diversity of the selections means that there is something for everyone. However, some of the cultural expressions were created for mature audiences and might not be suitable for younger students. The list below highlights these artworks so that you can make up your own mind about their suitability for your students.

Hiding artists and their artworks

If you wish to hide certain artists from your students, go to the List of Artists screen. This may be accessed from the opening screen or, if you have version 2.3 or better, by typing “L” anywhere within Moorditj.

On the List of Artists screen, select “Show All” and then select (click) each of the artists that you wish to hide. Then select “Continue”. You will need to do this on each of the computers that your students will use. Each computer will store your settings indefinitely so you do not need to make this selection every time your students use Moorditj and you can change your settings at any time.
