EDLA624 Language for Learning and Teaching
10 cp
In this unit, participants will analyse the nature of English and the place of language study within current curriculum contexts. Participants will examine the relationship of language learning to literacy and the construction of meaning in written and visual texts. They will extend their knowledge and proficiency in English grammar and develop classroom strategies for the effective and explicit teaching of grammar. Within their study of language, participants will consider the role of language in constructing what counts as critical literacy. These concepts will be applied to the teaching and assessment of language and literacy in different curriculum areas K-12.
