AFMLTA – National Languages Plan Teacher Survey 2

3/11/2020

0 Comments

 
The National Languages Plan and Strategy project teacher survey 2 is now open.

Teacher participation contributes to building an indicative profile of the nature of our language teaching profession to inform future policy.

Teachers of all languages in schools or community language centres are invited to complete this brief survey about their language teaching experiences and qualifications. This should take no more than 10 minutes to complete. Survey 2 is a brief series of questions asking about your language teaching experience and qualifications.

Your participation in this study is completely voluntary and all information provided will remain anonymous (the names of individual school sites and participating teachers are not collected).

The survey data will be used to inform the development of a national picture of the current situation of languages education across Australia, including the teaching of Community languages and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander languages.

To find out more and to access the survey please visit https://nlps.afmlta.asn.au/

​
A video conference link may be provided for those who are not able to attend in person.
