EDBED3512 Gifted education
This course provides a framework for pre-service teachers (PSTs) to understand giftedness and practices associated with gifted education from a theoretical perspective. The assessment tasks provide opportunities for both critically reflective appraisal and practical application of new understandings. PSTs are required to critically examine current understandings and practices relating to teaching highly able students from a national and international perspective. A focus of the course is on the development of a differentiated unit designed to engage all ability levels through models that also target the specific needs of gifted students.
Commonwealth supported place (CSP)
A CSP is subsidised by the Australian Government and students pay a contribution amount. Each unit is classified into a band, depending on the study area of the unit (this discipline may be different from the study area of your course).
