Synopsis
This course builds upon primary pre-service teachers' knowledge and skills related to reflective and responsive practices to enable them to develop strategies that respond to the learning strengths and needs of a diverse student cohort. Primary pre-service teachers learn about the complex influences on student experiences and learning in schools, with a particular focus on the impact cultural and linguistic backgrounds may have on the educational experience of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students. Pre-service teachers will develop teaching and learning strategies that are informed by contemporary research into the improvement of student learning via responsive pedagogical practices. Ongoing professional learning for teachers is a focus of The Reflective Practitioner and, upon successful completion of the course, primary pre-service teachers will understand both the rationale for career-long professional learning and the impact this can have on student learning.
