Humanities Curriculum 1 | Federation University

EDBED3035 Humanities Curriculum 1

This unit is designed to enable pre-service teachers to develop teaching and learning strategies that are specific to the teaching of humanities and social sciences. Pre-service teachers develop their understandings of key concepts such as global understanding, historical knowledge and understanding, environmental awareness and the economy and enterprise skills. These concepts are explored in light of contemporary teaching approaches and pedagogies. This unit promotes the specific teaching of skills and the development of continuums based on curriculum documentation to ensure specific feedback and assessment. The unit investigates the content knowledge from years 7-10 of Geography, History, Economics and the connections with concepts of Civics and Citizenship.

2026 contribution amount* $592
2026 grandfathered contribution amount^ $592

^ If you are a continuing student who commenced your course before 1 January 2021, you will continue paying the same amount as you would have, had legislative reforms not been implemented, for any units that would otherwise have an increased student contribution amount.

* For Psychology and Social Work bands the unit fee amount is determined by accredited courses. Students in Postgraduate Clinical Psychology, Professional Pathway Psychology or Professional Pathway Social Work accredited courses should refer to the information below.

A domestic full fee–paying place is one that isn’t subsidised by the Australian Government. These places are offered to postgraduate students or those who are ineligible for a CSP. Domestic postgraduate tuition fees are course-based annual fees, which means individual unit fees vary according to the degree.
