EDLA438 English Curriculum and Teaching 1
10 cp
This curriculum studies in English for secondary schools unit focuses on the nature, uses and structure of language as applied to the teaching of literacy in the secondary classroom. Through studying a variety of literary, non-literary and media texts, students will examine a range of principles and practices which focus on the teaching of reading, writing, speaking and listening. The unit also focuses on approaches to planning, teaching and evaluating units of work that implement relevant syllabus documents. The unit will deal with approaches to teaching English which cater for a range of students with specific language needs. The unit will develop and critically evaluate resource material for teaching and learning English and plan activities which integrate the four language modes of reading, writing, speaking and listening; and effectively provide for individual differences in mainstream English classrooms in particular, for the junior secondary years.
