Course description
Through a focus on recent developments in research into building inclusive primary classroom environments, this course prepares preservice teachers for supporting the diverse learning needs of all students in their future classroom contexts in inclusive and responsive ways. Critical reflection on legislative requirements and teaching strategies that support participation and learning of students across the full range of abilities and backgrounds (linguistic, cultural, religious and socioeconomic) will be demonstrated, with the aim of applying this knowledge with creativity and initiative to establish challenging learning goals for all students. Specific approaches for managing inclusive primary classrooms will be taught. This course offers approaches for the use of student data and strategies for working with others to action personalised learning plans. At the same time, preservice teachers will have opportunities to build their capacity in their knowledge and pedagogical content knowledge in their subject specialisation area.
