EEBED3105 Professional Placement B
This course is part of the sequence of four courses of professional experience designed to develop students' competencies as professional teachers. It comprises a supervised teaching experience of 15 days in a primary school (P-6). During this placement Pre Service Teachers (PSTs) will connect and extend the coursework undertaken at university by engaging in practical and constructive experiences in a variety of learning settings than can include rural, regional and urban localities. They will continue to develop the necessary skills and knowledge to teach in the appropriate school setting. University based pre placement sessions will augment students' exploration of their professional learning and post placement session will be undertaken to reflect on the professional experience and assist in developing future learning goals. During this professional experience placement, PSTs begin to explore more deeply the complexities of teaching and learning through their own and the Mentor Teacher¿s practice. PSTs, in collaboration with their Mentor Teacher (MT), plan and teach whole class lessons, develop learning and assessment tasks and systematically reflect on their teaching and student learning. PSTs begin to understand the teaching and learning connections, which form the educational core for learning, by developing professional relationships with the MT, students, other teaching staff and the broader educational community.
