Into English Study Guide: I am Malala Year 12 Common Module: Texts and Human Experiences

The I am Malala Student Book is a study of Malala Yousafzai’s memoir, I am Malala. The study has been designed to fulfil the requirements of the NSW Stage 6 English Year 12 Common Module: Texts and Human Experiences. By engaging in a close reading of the memoir, alongside several texts from the Standard English and Advanced English Module C: The Craft of Writing courses, students will develop their knowledge of how texts provide insight into the emotions, behavious, and motivations that form the code of human experiences.

To help students master the critical thinking, reading, and writing skills the Common Modules demands, a variety of analytical, creative, discursive, and reflective activities have been included in this student book. By completing these earnestly and diligently, students’ skills and confidence in using disciplinary specific language, literary devices, and textual concepts in response to different texts is guaranteed to improve.
