Description
***DUE TO THIS WORKSHOPS POPULARITY WE HAVE NOW CHANGED VENUES - NEWMAN SIENNA CENTRE***
AISWA, the Department of Education and Catholic Education Western Australia are joining forces again to offer language-specific whole day collaborative workshops for teachers of Year 11 and 12 WACE (Second) Language courses. In the past, teachers have valued the time and physical space provided at a sector level to collaborate with colleagues (particularly with moderation partners) to design and share resources.
This year, AISWA will hold a whole-day workshop for French at the start of both semesters. The aims of this second semester workshop are:
- To facilitate deeper understanding of the scope of the topics in Units 2 & 4 and review and adapt old texts/tasks
- To share teaching strategies and new resources
- To discuss strategies on how to prepare students effectively for the practical examination.
For information about the first semester workshop for French held on 10 February, 2017 (click here).
Both workshops will be facilitated by AISWA Languages Consultant, Kate Reitzenstein and a Languages Consultant from the School Curriculum and Standards Authority.
