EDMAS6056 Integrating curriculum: Humanities and the Arts
This unit explores a range of pedagogical approaches to teaching and learning in a cross-disciplinary environment utilising the context of humanities and the visual and performing arts. Pre-service teachers will be introduced to the Humanities and Visual and Performing Arts curriculum as a broad and dynamic field that helps students to interact with one another and the world around them in local, national and global contexts. The unit is designed to develop inclusive, student centred pedagogical content knowledge that informs planning, structuring, sequencing, assessing and evaluating integrated Humanities and Visual and Performing Arts programs. Throughout the unit pre-service teachers will have the opportunity to engage and build understanding of the approaches and opportunities that the Humanities and Arts curriculum provides to integrate the values, skills and general capabilities that enable students to actively participate as informed citizens. Students explore how the Humanities and Visual and Performing Arts are taught and planned for in various ways, such as inquiry, place-based (including fieldwork), theme-based and integrated learning.
