This subject is open to all students, but is particularly designed to assist overseas students. It develops students' abilities to meet the language and technology demands of university courses. Students develop effective reading and writing strategies for academic literacy needs, drawing on knowledge of reading and writing processes. This subject analyses key readings from other subjects in the course and provides support to students with writing needs. Other key areas include the analysis of the discourses of learning and teaching and an examination of the cross-cultural dimensions of these in Australian and overseas contexts.
