We use language - written, spoken, and electronic all of the time, but do we stop to consider HOW language is used and question it? Effective study of language requires curiosity, a keen eye and ear, a questioning approach, and awareness of key concepts. The A-level units will provide you with the opportunity to explore contemporary language, branching out from your own language use to wider social implications. You will develop your skills as a writer for different audiences and purposes - a rewarding and valuable skill, and build up your skills to research, plan, select, and shape materials. You will learn to read as writers and to write as readers, developing an inquiring and open mind. Language will never be the same again! Language investigation plus original writing and a commentary.
