BACHELOR OF TEACHING IN PRIMARY EDUCATION (880)
The Bachelor of Teaching in Primary Education
is a three year full-time course aimed at developing reflective,
professional teachers who, at graduation, can work effectively
in a variety of educational settings including primary schools
in both the public and private sectors. The course involves
both academic studies and practical teaching experiences in
each year. The details relating to practice teaching requirements
are noted in the subject descriptions for Curriculum and Pedagogy
I, Curriculum and Pedagogy II and Curriculum and Pedagogy
III.
The academic subjects studied in the course
are drawn from four strands: Education Foundation Studies,
Studies in the Key Learning Areas, Studies in Curriculum and
Pedagogy and Elective Studies. Elective choices are available
from both within the Faculty and from the schedules of subjects
offered by other Faculties. Year one of the course requires
students to complete 12 credit points of elective studies
outside the Faculty of Education.
The structure below shows the normal rate of
progress through the course. While it is possible to complete
the course on a part-time basis, students need to be aware
that there could be timetable difficulties. Students intending
to attempt the degree part-time should consult with the Director
of Primary Education at enrolment.
