Description

Becoming a Teacher of Language and Literacy explores what it means to be a literacy educator in the 21st century.

It promotes a reflective and inquiry-based approach to literacy teaching and examines three central questions: 1.

How do teachers approach the teaching of reading and writing, speaking and listening within a digital age? 2. How do teachers approach the standardisation of literacy, including high-stakes testing? 3. How do teachers work within the framework of the Australian curriculum: English?

The book covers a range of contemporary topics in language and literacy education, including reading and creating digital texts, supporting intercultural engagement in literacy education and developing community partnerships.

Each chapter features teacher narratives, current theoretical perspectives, examples of practice and reflective questions.

The narratives are designed to prompt reflection about teachers' professional practice within local school settings.

They convey the voices of teachers as they grapple with the challenges of their professional practice.
