The unit aims to introduce students to the nature of study and enquiry in the Arts faculty through a study of Australia. It gives students opportunities to learn, discuss, practice and receive feedback on academic skills of reading, writing, communicating ideas in discussion, critique and analysis, academic argument, research and referencing and acquire library skills while at the same time learning about contemporary Australia. The practical skills acquired can be applied to a wide range of disciplines and areas of study across the Faculty -- Course Website
