Course description
This course is part of a suite of Literacy and English courses in the Master of Teaching (Primary) program. Three interrelated aspects of the teaching profession provide a developmental framework for the courses: knowing yourself as a Literacy/English teacher; knowing your students; and knowing the disciplinary content of the subject English as well as the place of literacy teaching and learning within other curriculum areas. In this course students will develop a repertoire of teaching strategies and practices related to the teaching of English; identify a range of assessment techniques and strategies suitable for diverse contexts; and build their knowledge of key concepts related to literacy and the discipline of English. This course provides an introduction to school life through a 5 day (one-week block) of professional experience and students are required to have a valid Blue Card for the duration.
