About this Unit
This unit introduces students to the NSW Syllabus for the Australian Curriculum: Science and Technology K–6. It focuses on developing students’ pedagogical content knowledge appropriate for teaching science and technology to learners in the primary years. This unit demonstrates how scientific and technological learning experiences can be developed to cater for the needs of the diverse groups of learners in primary schools, including English as an Additional Language or Dialect (EAL/D), Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander and low socioeconomic status (SES) learners. Students will also focus on themselves as learners and reflect on the implications of their learning and the learning of others in their future professional practice.
