  1. MODULE A: Experience Through LanguageElective: Distinctively Visual

  2. This module requires students to explore the uses of a particular aspect of language. It develops students’ awareness of language and helps them to understand how our perceptions of and relationships with others and the world are shaped in written, spoken and visual language.

  3. Each elective in this module requires study of a prescribed text through a key aspect of language. This provides the basis for the study and use of this aspect of language in other texts, including texts drawn from students’ own experience.

  4.

  5. Elective 2: Distinctively Visual In their responding and composing students explore the ways the images we see and/or visualise in texts are created. Students consider how the forms and language of different texts create these images, affect interpretation and shape meaning. Students examine one prescribed text, in addition to other texts providing examples of the distinctively visual.   Students will use the prescribed text Maestro by Peter Goldsworthy, plus the related texts Beneath Clouds by Iven Sen and Wide Open Road (Triple JJJ) as the basis for their further exploration of the elective.

  7. When reading Maestro • Have a stash of post-it notes and pen attached to your text • EVERY TIME YOU COME ACROSS A POWERFUL WRITTEN IMAGE OF • Social messages, • cultural messages and/or • historical messages • Make a note and stick into the page…
