Learning outcomes

Unit Learning Outcomes express learning achievement in terms of what a student should know, understand and be able to do on completion of a unit. These outcomes are aligned with the graduate attributes. The unit learning outcomes and graduate attributes are also the basis of evaluating prior learning.

On completion of this unit, students should be able to:

demonstrate engagement with a wide range of texts including literary, visual and multimedia texts and study literature that gives insights into Aboriginal, multicultural and children’s experiences, for example texts from Australia and children’s literature

understand early language acquisition from 0-5 years and an introduction to related issues of child development

demonstrate an understanding of the teaching and learning of reading, the impact of electronic multimedia and digital literacies

demonstrate an understanding of the teaching of reading and writing in years K-6, including phonemic awareness, systematic phonics instruction, sentence structure, and evidence-based approaches related to how to assess reading and writing, particularly for students who are at risk of falling behind, and monitoring student progress in reading.
