English Extension 2

ENGLISH EXTENSION 2

Board Developed Course (ATAR) - 1 Unit

The English Extension 2 course enables students who are accomplished in their use of English with the opportunity to craft language and refine their personal voice in critical and creative ways. They will master skills in the composition process to create a substantial and original Major Work that extends the knowledge, understanding and skills developed throughout Stage 6 English courses.

Through the creative process of developing a Major Work they pursue areas of interest independently, develop deep knowledge and manipulate language in their own extended compositions. The course develops independent and collaborative learning skills and higher-order critical thinking that are essential at tertiary levels of study.

 

PREREQUISITE

Students must be enrolled in both English Advanced and English Extension 1 to be eligible to complete this course.
