Conference Theme: Reading recent developments in SFL: theory and practice
Recognising that South Australia has a particular interest in educational applications, the conference aimed to explore reading pedagogy as well as the recently developed national curriculum in Australia, particularly the opportunities that SFL affords teachers and students.
It also offered, more broadly, presentations dealing with developments in the theory and applications of SFL in a range of contexts.
