Dr Britta Jensen looks at critical thinking and how to nurture intercultural capabilities in the language classroom. “We aim to teach students how to think rather than teach them what to think”. @brittatweeting #mltansw2024

The state's first Auslan syllabus for K-10 students is now available! 🥳🧏 This new syllabus will give NSW students the opportunity to experience a unique part of Australia’s linguistic heritage and learn a valuable communication skill.

One of things we love about the new Modern Languages K-10 Syllabus (2022) is that the outcomes and content for Stage 5 allow a clearer progression into Stage 6 Continuers. To showcase this, we've created 3 infographics - one for each of the focus areas. @LanguagesNSW
