EDBED2006 Language and Literacies in the Primary Years
This course is designed to develop students knowledge and understandings of the nature and scope of literacy pedagogy in primary education, and the importance of translating theory to practice when planning appropriate learning activities. Students examine a wide range of effective strategies and resources that can be applied to the teaching of reading, writing, spelling, grammar, speaking, listening, and viewing. Students explore a range of childrens literature and multimodal texts and design a unit of work incorporating cross-curricular links and a variety of assessment strategies. A Primary professional experience placement is attached to this course
Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) unit fee
A Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) is one that is subsidised by the Australian Government, which means students only pay the student contribution amount of the tuition fee. CSPs are only available to eligible domestic students.
The student contribution amount depends on the unit and how much funding the Government provides. Each unit is classified into a band based on its discipline (which may be different to your overall course discipline).
2025 student contribution amount: $578
2025 grandfathered student contribution amount (for students who commenced before 1 Jan 2021*): $578
* If you are a continuing student (who commenced your course before 1 January 2021) you will continue paying the same amount as you would have, had legislative reforms not been implemented for any units that would otherwise have an increased student contribution amount.
