Description
Initially on professional practice, students observe lessons and move over time to teach around half a normal teacher's timetable, providing relevant documentation and an evaluation for every lesson taught. As professional practice continues, the module explores the continuing reflective and analytical development of the student as they review teaching and learning and reflect on the process of becoming a full professional in a school context.
This module is closely linked with the School Studies modules where the theoretical underpinning of the practice is discussed to enable the students to analyse the ideas in practice. Much of the module depends upon student's individual work as a practitioner and reflecting in and on practice so that they can develop their theoretical framework, improve their effectiveness and identify pathways for future personal and professional development.
