Academic Language and Learning (ALL)
The Academic Language and Learning (ALL) unit works closely with teaching staff in all Faculties and on all campuses to ensure that all La Trobe students – including those from non-English-speaking backgrounds – receive the support they need to develop core academic skills required to succeed. Those high-level, core academic skills include speaking and writing in English, numeracy and study strategies. the Academic Language and Learning staff assist in course and subject design, advise on teaching strategies and teach/co-teach special subjects, tutorials and workshops. The Academic Language and Learning unit also produces online learning resources, provides professional development for academic staff, trains student academic mentors and supports student learning success in many other ways.
