Major studies
All students must select one of three available areas of specialisation in the form of an identified sector of education/schooling, as follows:
-
Primary (understood, in Queensland, as the school years Prep – 7)
-
Middle Years of School (understood, in Queensland, as the school years 5 – 9)
-
Secondary (understood, in Queensland, as the school years 8 – 12)
Major studies objectives
Primary
In addition to the whole-of-program aims described above, the Primary specialisation aims to prepare graduates with sound levels of knowledge and understanding appropriate to working as educators with children around five to twelve years of age. For assistance refer to the Department of Education and Training Learning Areas.
Middle years of school
In addition to the whole-of-program aims described above, the Middle Years of School specialisation aims to prepare graduates with sound levels of discipline and pedagogic content knowledge in their nominated teaching areas and across the Key Learning Areas and who will thus be able to apply a range of teaching and learning approaches to support the development of students around ten to fourteen years of age within a variety of school structures. For assistance refer to the Queensland Studies Authority Guidelines.
Secondary
In addition to the whole-of-program aims described above, the Secondary specialisation aims to prepare graduates with sound levels of discipline and pedagogic content knowledge in their nominated teaching areas and who will thus be able to apply a range of teaching and learning approaches to support the development of knowledge, understanding and skills that will help students around thirteen to eighteen years of age to reach their full potential through secondary schooling. For assistance refer to Queensland Studies Authority Syllabus.
Practical experience
The Graduate Diploma in Learning and Teaching program complies with all requirements of the Queensland College of Teachers in terms of the minimum number of supervised days mandated (55) and the College’s minimum requirements for the total number of days of practical experience overall (75).
All students, domestic and international, must complete the majority of supervised professional experience in Australian Primary and/or Secondary school settings.
Within each sector strand, the practical experience components of the program are all tied to four courses, so that students undertake two practical experience placements in both semesters of full-time enrolment.
In order to undertake the courses to which practical experience placements are attached in the second half of the program, it is a requirement that students will have satisfactorily completed the practical experience courses in the first semester of the full-time enrolment pattern. For EDC4000 – Professional Placement and Portfolio there is the additional requirement that students undertaking the embedded placement in a Queensland school will need to have been granted an Internship Authority by the Queensland College of Teachers.
For further information, see http://www.usq.edu.au/education/profexp/default.htm
IT requirements
Students must have reliable and ready access to email and the internet. Broadband would be a significant advantage. See http://www.usq.edu.au/ict/students/standards/hardware.htm
Other program requirements
The major program requirements are the satisfactory completion of 8 specified units and 75 days of approved practical experience. However, in order to undertake the practical experience, and certain other activities with young people identified in various course specifications, it is required that Queensland-based students hold a current positive notice indicating that they are deemed suitable for working with children and young people. Further information about the “Blue Card” suitability process is available from the Commission for Children and Young People
All students, domestic and international, must complete the majority of supervised professional experience in Australian Primary and/or Secondary school settings.
A 30-hour induction program, compulsory for all students regardless of location or mode of enrolment/study is held prior to commencing formal studies in the first semester of enrolment. For the Semester 1 intake each year this induction program is held at the Toowoomba campus in February. For the Semester 2 intake each year the equivalent induction program is held at the Fraser Coast campus in late June/early July. Students who elect not to attend the induction program in person must complete an equivalent on-line induction program prior to commencement of the first semester of formal study.
Exemptions
There are no exemptions available from courses completed in the degree that formed the basis for the student’s admission to the program, but students who have completed degrees or diplomas in addition to the degree that formed the basis of their admission to the program may apply for any credit that may be applicable from that source.
Students may seek exemption from courses on the basis of documented prior study at University level or equivalent qualifications and experience. Such applications will be considered on their merits in relation to the extent to which the documentation supplied by the student demonstrates a clear match with the objectives of the course for which the exemption is sought. A maximum of four units of credit may be allowable.
Students who have documented evidence of satisfactory work in the role of teacher (or similar) may be eligible to seek credit for some of the required days of practical experience on the basis of recognition of current competence. Such applications must be supported by formal documentation from a school principal on school letterhead. The maximum credit available in such circumstances shall not exceed 20 days.
