EDMST6131 Gifted and Talented Education
This course provides a framework for educators to understand giftedness and the practices associated with gifted education in the school context from both a theoretical and practice-based perspective. It provides opportunities for critically reflective appraisal of the current literature and research relating to identifying and teaching highly able students from a national and international perspective. It supports critical examination of current understandings and practices relating to educating gifted and talented students. Practical application of new understandings are fostered through the assessment tasks. A particular focus of the course is on development of differentiated curricula to engage all ability levels and gifted students in particular.
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.
