HENAG4004 Learning Through Play
This course will focus on developing an understanding of play-based pedagogies and how play contributes to development and learning for children from birth. It will explore a variety of environments and resources. Learners will exercise their ability to plan inclusive play-based learning experience and develop the skills to communicate the value of play. This course will be applicable to any person that may be working in an environment where they need to interact with young children. This may be teachers, teacher leaders, school administrators, museum educators, and any educators and facilitators working in informal learning environments. The course will be also suitable for anyone with an undergraduate qualification interested or currently working in education, seeking a lowcost option to enter a postgraduate study. Learners who successfully complete the course will be able to use this completion for consideration of RPL (or direct credit into the future if an appropriate pathway is established), which will be issued at the discretion of the Institute of Education, Arts and Communities. ¿
