Tracey Corrigan Tracey has taught in public, Catholic and independent schools in both the UK and Australia for over 25 years. Her experience teaching years 7-12 English, leading two diverse faculties and delivering workshops to pre-service teachers at Flinders University, has provided her with a wealth of information about the interests (and disinterests) of adolescent readers. Furthermore, her role as SACE marker and moderator has also given her access to the choice of texts used as shared texts by teachers and those independently chosen by students.
A recording of the event and PowerPoints will be available to registered individuals after the event.
