Description This unit introduces key concepts in literature for children and young adults, examining theory and research related to literature; the diversity of literature and multi-literate environments; and the impact of social and cultural influences on literature. Through reading a wide range of literature, including literary classics, popular texts, graphic novels, picture books, in paper-based and electronic forms, students will identify the interrelationships between image and writing and ideological assumptions conveyed through these texts. It will focus on Australian literature, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander literature, Asian literature and bilingual texts.
