Synopsis

In this course learners will examine theories, models and frameworks of curriculum and program design and evaluation and their application in a range of post-compulsory education and training contexts. Learners will use this foundation to inform the development and justification of both an education/training program designed to respond to an identified training/learning need in their own instructional context and a comprehensive plan for the evaluation of their program. This course requires learners enrolled in the Bachelor of Education (Technical and Vocational Education) to successfully complete 15 days of supervised professional experience. Students in the Bachelor of Vocational Education and Training are required to complete a minimum of 25 hours of supervised instruction.
