EDMAS6067 Youth Identities, Diversity and Wellbeing
This unit focuses on adolescence and young peoples¿ diverse identities and socio-cultural worlds. It celebrates the creativities and achievements of young people and begins with a focus on youth rights and responsibilities. PSTs examine the cognitive development of young people and the implications for wellbeing. They explore the impact of technology and social media on young peoples¿ lives and come to see young people as global citizens who require intercultural capabilities. PSTs consider ways to place resilience and mental, physical, and emotional wellbeing at the centre of educators¿ work. They develop their understandings of disability and ways of working with young people who have diverse additional needs. They learn teaching strategies that foster inclusive participation and engagement of students who have a full range of abilities. PSTs will identify ways to effectively engage families/carers in young peoples¿ education.
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.
