Requisite(s): 023117 Practicum 7: Reflecting on Educational Practice
Undergraduate

This final-semester subject is designed to help students draw together their teacher preparation experiences as they engage with a number of major professional issues. Issues examined reflect current trends and demands affecting teaching, learning and schooling in Australia, enabling students to critically analyse these and develop an appropriate and well-supported response that guides their future professional practice. Students' engagement in their professional experience program is continued during this semester and culminates in the Associate Teacher Program.

The field experience component of this subject occurs in a regular primary school. The placement articulates with Practicum 7, which is intended to occur in the same setting. The field experience has both distributed and block elements.
