Learning requirements

The learning requirements summarise the knowledge, skills, and understanding that students are expected to develop and demonstrate through their learning in Stage 2 Australian Languages — Additional Language.

In this subject, students are expected to:

1. interact with others to exchange information, experiences, ideas and/or opinions in [Additional Language]
2. create resources in [Additional Language] to express information, experiences, ideas, and/or opinions
3. analyse and respond to resources that are in [Additional Language]
4. understand and apply knowledge of [Additional Language] systems and structures
5. explore and understand relationships between language, culture, identity, and communities.

The history of Australian Languages means that written materials in or about a language being studied may not be extensive. Students are encouraged to use and engage with as wide a range of resources as possible. Resources include, but are not limited to:

• spoken materials, such as talks, conversations, and interviews, whether filmed, recorded, transcribed, or experienced personally
• written materials, such as books, articles, diaries, letters, and administrative records
• artwork, music, songs, and other creative materials
• online materials.
