About this Unit
In 2020 this unit replaced by102750 - Professional Experience 3. The unit is only offered to students enrolled in the Bachelor of Education (Primary) Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Education program. This unit is a 20 credit point unit and is taught over two semesters. The unit is designed to enable students to have direct experience of teaching in NSW schools, building towards a final professional experience. The Professional Experience stream integrates with the curriculum content and pedagogy delivered in other course units. The rationale behind this Professional Experience unit is to give students the opportunity to synthesise and apply their knowledge and skills from all previous units in the same school over two blocks, for a total of 25 days. The first block, for 10 days will enable students to build or cement relationships with a school community. The second block, for 15 days in the same school, will allow students to consolidate their teaching through the integration of theory and practice as their final preparation as beginning teachers.
