Synopsis
Literacy and Numeracy across the Curriculum is a course for secondary pre-service teachers in the Master of Learning and Teaching. It will focus on unpacking aspects of teaching, planning and assessing literacy and numeracy from the Australian Curriculum, underpinned by a clear understanding of relevant subject-matter knowledge and current theories of learning and teaching. The approach to teaching is based on thinking strategies and deep conceptual understandings and may be significantly different from the methods experienced in pre-service teachers' own schooling. Past and present practices will be critically examined in the light of research findings, curriculum documents and teaching practice. In addition, major contemporary drivers of change in the educational environment and the implications of recent key reports and initiatives in literacy and numeracy will be addressed, as will the embedding of Australian Professional Standards for Teachers.
