Week 2 homework 1

Read the article, “Be a Proud Aussie Quietly” which is in the folder of Core Texts on Blackboard. Identify one positioning technique and be able to explain what the technique is and how the reader is positioned by it. For example, you might find that there is a silence in the text or that one idea is privileged over others, as we discussed in class. You might also find an example of a positioning technique that you are familar with from last year, such as a particular language choice, the use of repetition etc. Remember that we are positioned by pictures as well as words. Be ready to speak to the class about what you have found on Wednesday during the lesson.
