Synopsis

Students enrolled in EDC4100 will engage with transformative pedagogies/andragogies in the context of contemporary case studies that reflect local, national and global issues in education. Students will develop workable responses to real world case studies and will be able to make connection to personal and collective efficacy. This will draw on the prior learning and experiences that inform their personalised frameworks of practice that delineate the roles and responsibilities of educators as global citizens and contemporary educators. Emergent professionals will be able to make connections between theory and practice and the professional standards for educators (QCT, EQ, national and/or global as appropriate) and will document these connections through a personalised e-portfolio. They will also identify future learning goals that will support their professional identities, resilience and sustainability in complex and fluid educational contexts. NOTE: Minimum enrolment numbers apply to this offering. Should enrolments not reach the minimum number required for on-campus study, students may be transferred to the EXT or WEB offering and advised of this change before semester commences.
