Disciplinary literacy, encompassing the specialised ways of reading, writing, and communicating knowledge within distinct academic disciplines, has emerged as a critical focus in education worldwide as educators and learners face the challenge of mastering subject-specific literacies in a wide range of curriculum areas, sometimes in more than one language.
The event is designed to be of particular interest to secondary school teachers, and promises excellent opportunities for discussion, knowledge exchange, professional development and networking. This is a two-day in-person event with refreshments provided.
