EDU4255 Teaching for Effective Learning
SCHOOL OF EDUCATION
Credit Points: 15
 
Description:
This unit is designed to help participants develop a better understanding of the role of ediucation in the context of global change, and of teaching being a process that facilitates student learning. The unit addresses two central questions "What should there students learn?" and "How will I help students learn this?" To help develop this understanding, participants will work in-depth with key ideas drawn from phenomenographic studies of learning and teaching, constructivist views of the learning process, and student approaches to learning theory. Participants will also focus on particular aspects of teaching and learning that meet their own needs, the requirements of their teaching context and the strategic initiatives of their organisations.
