Advanced Pedagogy - EDCN813
Current debates in Australian education and public policy focus on the issues of curriculum and assessment. Central to any discussion is the role of teachers and their pedagogies. Pedagogy is more than classroom teaching. It is the crafting together of teachers' professional knowledge, skills, and abilities, to create effective learning opportunities and outcomes for all students in a range of contexts. This unit explores the ways research informs pedagogical practice and enhances teacher professional learning. It investigates the evidence base of effective pedagogy, the contemporary relationship of curriculum, pedagogy and assessment, and the changing nature of teaching and learning. It is advisable to have teaching experience for this unit.
