Language Unit 1: Representation/Identity

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?
