Mind Mapping

Read the following excerpt on the “mind mapping” technique from Cracking Creativity, p. 55-60.
Mind Mapping, Cracking Creativity (pdf, 969.2 KB)
Use this mind mapping technique to help you brainstorm ideas for an aesthetic direction for your project. As you brainstorm your mind map, think about your client interview from Module 3. For example, here are some of the things you should be thinking about as you develop your mind map:
Did your client indicate a preferred aesthetic direction for the renovation?
What values, atmosphere, metaphors, or other meaning would they like to see expressed in this renovation?
If your client did not strongly specify a certain aesthetic direction for the project, then what direction do you think would be most effective?
How can the space be better designed to provide a symbolic expression of identity to its occupants (whether this identity connection is personal, social, or branding-related)? Think of words that convey this aesthetic direction.

Please post only your completed mind map.

Developing literacy

Your presentation must draw upon the course materials and specifically address the following points:

1.
Define and describe English as a curriculum learning area. Provide an example of how English can be taught in either an Early Childhood setting. Support your discussion with references made to scholarly sources, the Early Years Learning Framework, and other relevant literature.

2.
Define and describe the teaching literacy skills. Provide an example of how literacy can be taught in either an Early Childhood setting. Support your discussion with references made to scholarly sources, the Early Years Learning Framework, and other relevant literature.

3.
Discuss the key differences between teaching English as a curriculum learning area and literacy in early years education. Support your discussion with references made to scholarly sources, the Early Years Learning Framework or the Australian Curriculum (or state curriculum equivalent), and other relevant literature.

CRITERIA
The presentation includes an engaging introduction to attract the listener’s attention. It includes a coherent and logical take-home message to encourage reflection and thought in the listener.

An added depth of thinking is displayed though the integration of a wide range of dimensions of the educational context for the teaching and learning of English as a curriculum learning area and literacy.

Statements and discussion points were consistently supported with references made to the Early Years Learning Framework and a wide range of relevant scholarly sources.

Assignment Overview
We know the importance of acquiring a language in order to communicate with others. We also know how important it is for an individual to be literate in the 21st century. However, knowing a language is not enough for an individual to be literate, although they might be considered to be proficient in a language, if they are literate. The English language and literacy concepts are somewhat confusing for many because of their similarities. However, there are differences between English language skills and literacy skills, and knowing these differences is important for all educators, particularly those in the early years education in Australia.

Write in the style, tone, level of formality, etc. that is typical for that publication. Learn this by reviewing and reading articles from the local publication with particular attention to the letter to the editor sections.
Analyze the target audience for the publication and consider how their needs dictate the writing choices you will make. Think of ways you can make connections with them in your writing.
Include a call to action in your conclusion.
Use APA format. While it is likely that the publication you choose will not use APA format, since learning APA is a key component of this class, we will continue to use it here.  If you do submit for publication, consult publication guidelines, and use the reference style specified.
