Content
This unit draws on prior curriculum and pedagogical content knowledge and skills to examine a range of evidence-informed teaching and assessment strategies to support the effective teaching in the pre-service teacher’s senior curriculum area. The unit develops pre-service teachers’ capacity to apply advanced curriculum and pedagogical content knowledge to effectively sequence learning experiences in practical senior secondary school contexts. Pre-service teachers will learn to select and justify appropriate teaching and assessment strategies relevant to their specialist teaching area and apply advanced knowledge of formative and summative assessment strategies to evaluate senior students’ student achievement. The unit prepares pre-service teachers to critically evaluate and justify the selection of relevant, contemporary learning resources, including the use of ICT to expand curriculum learning opportunities. Strategies to support effective assessment moderation are also addressed and practiced supporting consistent and reliable judgements of student achievement.
