School of Education, University of New England, NSW
This submission discusses four groups of issues: first, the interconnectedness
of reading and writing development; second, the need for differential teaching,
according to student need, of reading as decoding, comprehending and critical
interpretive response; third, the importance of literacy pedagogy beyond initial
reading instruction, developing students’ effectiveness in reading and writing
using conventional book-based resources as well as new forms of digital
multimedia; and last, the impact of social, contextual issues on the classroom
implementation of literacy pedagogies.

Ms Julie Beer, VIC
This submission calls for a closer examination of the perceived causes of
failure in literacy teaching and their attendant solutions, and briefly outlines
some basic approaches the writer has found to yield success. The writer says
that she has found that the explicit linking of the visual to the oral/aural
through narrative and conversation can provide new levels of understanding in
reading for students. Such an approach requires a shift from viewing teaching as
a method to the understanding of teaching as a much richer dialogic approach.

Ms Julie DeAngelis, OzChild, VIC

early identification and intervention for students regarding reading
development, before they fall behind. Direct, classroom instruction implemented
by a speech pathologist as the facilitator is the model. Teachers are provided
support and training to meet the literacy needs of their young students and
parents are also involved in the program. The submission says that statistics
clearly demonstrate improvement in students overall average scores and feedback
from parents and teachers has been exceptionally positive.

Ms Julia Grmistone, Brain Gym, VIC
The submission draws the Inquiry’s attention to the Educational Kinesiology
program called Brain Gym, which is a movement-based program used to prepare
students for learning. Fundamental to Educational Kinesiology is the idea that
movement is important in learning and the notes that some of the difficulties
children have with literacy and learning go back to their early childhood
development.. The submission refers to an article published in the Brain Gym
Journal (July 2000) that lists research and anecdotal evidence from around the
world. The submission provides a brief summary of four of the articles. The
writer is a member of the International Faculty of Educational Kinesiology.
