Course description

Becoming a teacher requires commitment and dedication to lifelong professional learning and personal growth through critical reflection. This course provides a further introduction to teaching through workshops and a 20-day (4 week) block practicum. Observation of practice will be provided to enable the opportunity to improve practice. Practice in the design and implementation of units/lessons will also be a feature of this course. The focus of this course is on the relationship between the national professional standards for graduate teachers and the work of a teacher. This course is developmental and builds on EDUC2740, providing a basis for the subsequent course, EDUC4750. The course will also build on and incorporate knowledge previously developed in the Bachelor of Education (Primary) program. Blue Cards current through the period of the practicum are mandatory.
