Course description

This course will introduce students to the multi-disciplinary field of the Science of Learning, and how it can be applied to a broad range of teaching and learning contexts and practice. Students will develop an understanding of important evidence-based principles of learning, the science underpinning these principles, and how to apply them in practice. They will also develop skills to facilitate practice-based research and inquiry, as well as leadership capabilities in supporting others to translate research into practice. This course will assist graduates to establish and sustain positive professional knowledge, skills, dispositions and habits around engaging effectively with a range of evidence to continually grow their professional practice and pedagogy.

This course may not be offered in person if the enrolment is less than 10 students.
