EDECE3022 Guiding Behaviour
This unit is designed to engage Pre-Service Teachers (PSTs) with current research and practices in guiding the behaviour of children from birth to eight years of age. PSTs will revisit the core principles of early childhood education to understand the importance of responsive and sensitive education and care for young children. A range of influences including developmental, social, cultural and environmental conditions that impact upon the child will be explored. This unit will draw upon a range of theories with a particular emphasis on children's social and emotional development. PSTs will examine guidance principles and practices to develop a range of strategies to manage behaviour and support children's developing self-regulation. Responses to common challenges and diverse learners will be explored. PSTs will investigate strategies that foster ethical and professional relationships with children, families and professionals in a collaborative approach to behaviour guidance.
Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) unit fee
A Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) is one that is subsidised by the Australian Government, which means students only pay the student contribution amount of the tuition fee. CSPs are only available to eligible domestic students.
The student contribution amount depends on the unit and how much funding the Government provides. Each unit is classified into a band based on its discipline (which may be different to your overall course discipline).
2025 student contribution amount: $578
2025 grandfathered student contribution amount (for students who commenced before 1 Jan 2021*): $578
* 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.
