English is the order of the day
16 JUNE 2011
Several hundred Riverina teenagers will immerse themselves in English literature in all its forms during the Higher School Certificate (HSC) English Study Day at Charles Sturt University (CSU) on Friday 17 June. The annual event is designed to provide local high school students with information, scholarship and strategies on some of the HSC English texts and topics for this year’s HSC exam. Organised by the English Teachers’ Association and staff in the School of Humanities and Social Sciences at CSU in Wagga Wagga, the program provides lectures, workshops and panel discussions on both Advanced and Standard English. Presenters include regional high school teachers, CSU staff, and students undertaking degrees towards high school teaching. Mr David Gilbey, adjunct senior lecturer in English from the School of Humanities and Social Sciences, said, “It’ll be a full day, with up to 800 students due to attend the event. I am hoping the students will also enjoy their glimpse of Charles Sturt University’s facilities and our learning environment.”
