| Outcomes |
Students are able to develop a personal philosophy to support their teaching; understand how students learn in the visual arts area; use relevant curriculum documents to plan, implement and assess learning programs for Years 8 to 10 which support the principles of the outcomes-based Curriculum Framework in Western Australia; demonstrate skills in lesson planning and presentation in preparation for their first teaching practice; develop an effective approach to their classroom teaching; demonstrate high standards of professional behaviour and commitment to the unit; and work collegially with their peers. |
| Content |
This unit uses the Curriculum Framework, The Arts Progress Maps and Curriculum Guides and a range of school-related resources to enable students to develop the knowledge and competencies needed to create learning programs, design lesson plans, develop a range of learning strategies based on a variety of resources and develop appropriate assessment techniques. |
| Assessment |
This comprises two assignments; a series of lesson plans; and a learning program designed to assess curriculum knowledge, an understanding of learning theory, planning competencies and resourcefulness.
Supplementary assessment is not available in this unit except in the case of a bachelor's pass degree student or a student enrolled in the Graduate Diploma in Education who has obtained a mark of 45 to 49 and is currently enrolled in this unit, and it is the only remaining unit that the student must pass in order to complete their course. |
