Course description

The course explores the two technology curricula; Design and Technologies and Digital Technologies through a STEM focus as a model for connected learning. Preservice teachers will develop their design thinking processes in order to explore common features in Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics accessed through systems thinking. National priorities such as food and water security, health and well-being, knowledge economy, engineering, construction and manufacturing and innovation provide a foundation for integrative thinking and digital expression. They will be presented with effective teaching strategies for classroom practice that align with current best practice approaches in early, middle and upper primary years of learning.
