This year, our first language unit has been ‘Representation’. It endeavours us to question…
Identity
- How are we affected by texts?
- How does language represent social distinctions and identities?
- How can texts offer multiple perspectives of a single issue, topic or theme?
- How does voice contribute to construction of meaning?
Representation
- How do texts reflect, represent or form a part of culture?
- Is the act of representation problematic?
- How do representation reveal and conceal underlying values or attitudes?
- How does language represent social distinctions and identities?
