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 literature, literacy and language learning. The New South Wales' syllabus documents for Stages 4, 5 and 6 are examined in terms of outcomes, programming, assessment strategies and resources. The nature of student centred 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.

Please consult the Secondary TEP Guide for recommended prior studies.
