EDBED2112 Collaborative Partnerships
Collaborative Partnerships builds on the attitudes, beliefs and practices developed previously in the core courses. PSTs are required to work collaboratively with peers, practicing educators, students and lecturers. PSTs will refine the skills and attitudes needed to create and maintain an inclusive environment. PSTs will develop planning and curriculum knowledge along with a range of communication skills through creating, reviewing, revising and implementing an inclusive project that addresses point-of-need learning opportunities. A focus of the course will be on pedagogical approaches that meet and support students' needs. The project will be developed in conjunction with an inschool mentors. To complete this course, all PSTs are required to have a Working with Children Check. As a part of this course, all PSTs will undertake a 5-day non-assessed Cooperative Experiential Learning (CEL) placement in a school setting. The focus on this placement will be on the collaborative partnerships and relationships that are built as part of the teaching and learning cycle. A reflexive element of the course will engage PSTs to critically evaluate their participation and implementation of the project.
