Preservice teachers will focus on: Language as interactional, ideational and textual; creating Literature; and creating texts. They will develop their role as critical and reflective practitioners through participation in professional communities of educators, expanding their disciplinary knowledge of English and Literacy, building a comprehensive resource portfolio for planning, teaching and assessing in subject English, and prepare an inquiry unit of work using a multi-literacies model that reflects: current curriculum frameworks and policies; knowledge gained from professional learning, and teaching networks; and the engagement of students from diverse backgrounds including Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students.
