About this Unit
This is a Professional Experience unit in which students participate in 15 days placement in schools. Five of these days will be in their home communities and ten will be in Sydney schools. During these days students will work in partnership with classroom teachers to further develop and begin to put into practice their knowledge of curriculum and pedagogy. Students will observe classrooms, assist individuals and groups of students with their learning, and begin to teach lessons. By the end of the unit students will have taught lessons in all of the KLAs, assessed student learning and evaluated their teaching.
