It's all around us. Language defines us. We use language, written, spoken and electronic all of the time, but do we stop to consider HOW language is used and question it? Is the English Language sexist? How do we use language to exert power? How do children learn to speak? Effective study of language requires curiosity, a keen eye and ear, a questioning approach and awareness of key concepts. The AS and A2 units will provide you with the opportunity to explore contemporary language, branching out from your own language use to wider social implications. You will learn to become a linguistic detective, taking a forensic approach looking out for the smallest clues in a text as to its purpose and meaning and, like a detective, you will be stepping back from the individual words to assess the wider context. You will learn to read as writers and to write as readers, developing an enquiring and open mind. Language will never be the same again.
