This unit explores the theory and practice of teaching and learning and how effective teachers plan to execute productive learning events, including ways in which we assess learning outcomes. The unit also aims to develop the prospective teacher’s skill as a facilitator and decision-maker in the teaching learning process. It assumes a model of the classroom teacher as a rational autonomous educator able to make justifiable professional decisions and to develop appropriate strategies for their implementation. The unit focuses clearly on the development of skills and strategies to facilitate the teaching and learning process. It includes models of the teaching and learning process, teaching skills and strategies, instructional media, theories of learning and measurement and evaluation. Strong emphasis is placed on relating these topics to current teaching practice in schools.
