Multilayered Pedagogy to Engage EAL Students

In order to engage EAL students, teachers need to effectively understand and utilise language acquisition, assessment processes, and explicit planning models. 

This course will address the current EAL models in the Australian context and how teachers can use functional grammar, EAL assessment continuums and explicit instructional models (EIM) to plan and deliver more inclusive lessons.


In this course, participants will get a clearer understanding of EAL student backgrounds and how they can help their students access language learning through investigating the EAL continuum and Functional Grammar strategies. 

Participants will also explore how they can incorporate some Cooperative Learning Strategies through the use of the Teaching and Learning cycle and a sample Explicit Instructional lesson plan.  


This online course will allow participants to:

  • UNDERSTAND what their EAL learners bring into their classrooms;
  • UNPACK EAL teaching and learning in Australia;
  • UPLOAD additional EAL knowledge and strategies into their existing repertoire.
