This subject provides pre-service teachers with an introductory and developmental
level of the Australian Professional Standards for Teachers requirements of standard
1.4 and 2.4. As a second year subject, there will be a focus on teaching for learning
in order to develop their role as professional educators within the classroom, school
and wider community. Through a focus on 'knowing yourself, knowing your students and
knowing what you teach', this subject will engage with critical Indigenous theory
to explore and examine their personal and professional knowledge and beliefs about
Indigenous education. The subject will examine the impact of Indigenous student's
culture, identity, history and linguistic background to develop pre-service teacher's
reflective and respectful pedagogical strategies and perspectives for Aboriginal and
Torres Strait Islander students. Using the Australian curriculum, Indigenous learning
theories, pedagogical frameworks and planning, teaching and assessment strategies,
students will be able to demonstrate introductory and developed levels of skills in
teaching and learning for Indigenous and non-Indigenous students. Upon the successful
completion of this subject, pre-service teachers will develop their professional identity
as teachers of Indigenous students and demonstrate evidence of strategies, pedagogical
models which are inclusive and student centred across all curriculum areas.
Learning Outcomes
