Synopsis
In this unit the student identifies and analyses the main variables
which influence the nature of post-compulsory teaching and training in
general and his/her own instructional activities in particular.
Students will be expected to demonstrate competency in planning
implementing and evaluating a series of instructional sessions for a
wide range of learners in the post-compulsory education/training
sectors.
Students will be introduced to the skills of assessing the training
needs of particular learners and of analysing established course
documentation as the basis of developing instructional programs.
At all times students will be encouraged to develop a commitment to
self-evaluation as a major factor in their on-going development of an
effective personal instructional style.
NOTE: Students enrolled in this unit must be involved at least part-
time as an instructor/trainer in post-compulsory education or industry
training. Units 80801 and 81101 cannot be used for credit in the same
degree.
