Learning about literature: Travelling through the literary landscape

Presented by Dr Lorraine McDonald

In her presentation, Dr Lorraine McDonald will review the knowledge, understandings and skills that teachers will need to appreciate to teach literary texts. Aspects of these domains will be demonstrated through a range of literary texts. The presentation will also make links to the NSW Syllabus for the Australian Curriculum: English K-10 Syllabus.

Dr Lorraine McDonald is an Honorary Fellow, School of Education, Australian Catholic University, Sydney. Lorraine, a former classroom teacher, has taught programs in Literacy Education, Linguistics, ESL and Literature for Children and Young Adults.
