University of Technology Sydney language programs

UTS recognizes that students will develop their language skills during their studies and that these skills are integral to the development of disciplinary knowledge. Language skills are necessary for students to successfully engage in their studies, develop course-specific graduate outcomes, and, as graduates, successfully participate in their professional environments.

• Assessment task design and scaffolding (including feedback strategies)
• Curriculum (subject and course) design/development
• Language and literacy development (resources, orientation activities, OPELA)
• Pedagogical practice change (collaborative teaching, professional development)
• Research, projects and grants
