EEBED3106 Professional Placement C: Alternative and Diverse
This course is part of a 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 an educational setting or educational program. It is designed to encourage, inspire and challenge all Pre-Service Teachers (PSTs) to choose to explore alternative learning settings in which good educational practice occurs. The placement is underpinned by the intention to extend the PSTs¿ perceptions of teaching and learning outside of the traditional and familiar educational environment. Throughout this placement, PSTs immerse themselves in the diverse possibilities and opportunities available to them. PSTs also have the opportunity to complete this placement interstate and internationally. This 15 day placement can occur as a block placement however, there is flexibility to complete it part time over both Semester I and 2, for example, one/two days per week across multiple weeks, depending on the academic timetable and the structure of the placement the PST is engaging in.
