I am in the process of compiling a list of possible resources for the new area of study. This commences in Term 4 of 2008. Do you have any "must includes" that should be on the list? I am happy to share my list. 57  out of 70 found this valuable. Do you?

I talked to an English Coordinator, to find out what they were doing. I got some ideas from the HSC Forum Day at the State Library (I can't find the powerpoints anymore, though) and looked at some English Teachers Association material as well. As I watch something on TV (on ABC / SBS) , I look for more ideas. Hope that helps.

Hi! I'm a NSW English teacher. There is a useful new collection of poems and short fiction on 'Belonging' that might be useful here in this online literary magazine, The Chimaera, which I edit:
