  • The English Teachers' Association of Queensland
    ETAQ Saturday Seminar 2-2015 Meeting in the Middle Saturday 30 May, 2015 Brisbane Grammar School, 24 Gregory Terrace, Brisbane QLD 4000 Context “The middle years are an important period of learning, in which knowledge of fundamental disciplines is developed, yet this is also a time when students are at the greatest risk of disengagement from learning. Student motivation and engagement in these years is critical, and can be influenced by tailoring approaches to teaching, with learning activities and learning environments that specifically consider the needs of middle years students.” (Melbourne Declaration on Education Goals for Young People, Dec 2008, p. 12) Purpose With the arrival of Year 7 learners in Queensland high schools in 2015, English teachers have been presented with the exciting opportunity to develop and renew our knowledge and understanding of the learning needs of the Millennium Generation. While new school structures may have been built and new learning spaces created to accommodate their arrival, we know that it is the pedagogy, curriculum and assessment employed in our English classrooms that is the real key to engaging and motivating young adolescent readers, writers, speakers and thinkers. This seminar aims to provide an opportunity for us to share our ideas, resources and experience of teaching English in the middle years. Keynote Address: in the last 50 years - Year 7 shifted from primary schools to high schools in all state and non-state The Millennials and Learning: What schools. teachers need to know Along with this major structural reform, growing recognition of the ways to work with middle years students has become an important part of school agendas.

In each of our first two years, we received a plethora of submissions from schools in all corners of the country, bringing to our attention some truly inspiring work being undertaken to equip students with the tools that will help them to face a world vastly different from the one we currently know. Once again this year, the volume and quality of entries received made selecting the list of schools to profile an arduous task and spoke to the depth of innovative work currently being undertaken in Australian schools. But we have gone through the difficult assessment process and chosen 40 schools we have determined are worthy of special recognition. It must be emphasised, however, that the outstanding work detailed on the pages that follow offers only a snapshot of the pioneering work in our schools that merits commendation.
