Module overview

You will reflect on your personal experiences of learning in relation to reported educational theory. Through this context you will examine a set of current teaching and learning issues. You will be encouraged to investigate, critically assess and engage in debating these issues, as reported by active educational researchers. Additionally, you will consider how young people learn, how learning is recognised and assessed and establish a view of what is deemed effective teaching and learning. Consequently, you are expected to develop a deeper understanding of the contexts in which teachers work, the accountability of teachers and the responsibilities of learners.
