How is the Australian Curriculum: Languages organised?
The Australian Curriculum: Languages for Chinese and Indonesian is available for use in states and territories.
The Australian Curriculum states that:
Languages is organised through two interrelated strands:
- communicating: using language for communicative purposes in interpreting, creating and exchanging meaning
- understanding: analysing language and culture as a resource for interpreting and creating meaning.
The strands reflect three important aspects of language learning:
- communication
- analysis of aspects of language and culture
- reflection.
