TEP423: English in the Secondary School I

This unit focuses on the contemporary role of the teaching of English in a secondary school context. Emphasis is given to the classroom application of current theories about literacy, literacy and language learning. The NSW syllabus documents for Stages 4 and 5 and Stage 6 are examined in terms of outcomes, programming, assessment strategies and resources. The nature of student centered learning in the English classroom will be explored through a variety of approaches. Key issues considered include the writing process, popular culture, visual texts, adolescent reading and the role of technology.

All work in TEP423 is closely coordinated with TEP414.
