Description

From a combination of university lectures and school-based experiences, students will learn how to plan and conduct lessons in their teaching specialty, as well as become familiar with the many functions of schools and teachers. Seminars will be used to discuss the effectiveness of the lessons taught, and to enable students to identify and solve classroom-based problems. Students will spend one day per week in schools for ten weeks.

Note: A Method 1 course in a teaching specialisation is a corequisite.
