_{^{Lectures:
Attendance at lectures is strongly recommended. The lecture series will introduce and explore a range of educational issues that will be discussed in depth during tutorials.}}

The course consists of lectures, tutorials, field study and case work as well as an exam. Contact hours are minimal to allow time for students to pursue their areas of interest for the case and field study assignments. Students are also required to arrange times with partners in preparing a case study presentation.

A case study approach will be taken in tutorials allowing students to explore and connect real situations with examples and theories presented in lectures. Issues will be analysed using the framework outlined earlier under ‘Course Objectives’.

Tutorials will also be used for scheduled pair presentations as part of the assessment for this course.

The reduced course contact time allows tutorial numbers to be kept to a maximum of 15 participants. Students are expected to prepare for tutorials by familiarizing themselves with the set readings. Tutorials will be structured in ways that ensure that everyone has opportunity to contribute to the topic discussion.

Focus
Contemporary classroom teaching and learning issues and challenges and teaching responses: students and teachers.

SGDE
What pedagogic challenges do teachers and students face when working in classrooms and schools?

Method
At your first SGDE with the aid or your lecturer/tutorer get into groups of 4. You need to work co-operatively during the semester in these groups. Remember you have worked in groups in year one so this experience needs to be kept in mind.

Arrange to watch one of the following series which are recent documentary series dealing with contemporary teaching and learning and pedagogic practice:

Educating Essex
Educating Yorkshire
Tough Young Teachers
Harrow- A Very British Public School

All of these are available on You Tube and are recent and highly relevant.

Small Group Discovery
Classes will be held weekly. Membership of tutorial classes is to be finalised by the end of the second week of semester. Students wishing to swap between tutorial classes after this time are required to present their case to the lecturer-in-charge, but should be aware that such a request may not be approved.
 
These are an important component of your learning in this course. The communication skills developed in the group by regularly and actively participating in discussions are considered to be most important by the School and are highly regarded by employers and professional bodies.

Case Study Paired work and presentation
Case studies will be prepared and presented in pairs. A significant part of the preparation will be the collection and analysis of data related to the topic. Students are encouraged to investigate options for data collection early in the course to ensure successful completion of case studies in time for tutorial presentations.

Field Study Individual negotiation
Field study will allow students to pursue their own areas of interest and connect with professionals in the field. Findings from field studies will be presented as a report for assessment and later incorporated into future portfolios.

The 最新糖心Vlog expects full-time students (ie those taking 12 units per semester) to devote a total of 48 hours per week to their studies. Students in this course are expected to attend all lectures throughout the semester plus one tutorial class each week. Please refer to Access Adelaide for your timetable and enrolment details.

Online Submission via MyUni

Field Study Report:
 
1. Double space the lines. Use at least 12 point and a clear and legible font. This makes it easier for the maximum grade to be awarded by staff that wear multifocal spectacles but are otherwise kind and caring, full of compassion, slow to anger and rich in mercy.

2. Leave a margin of at least one inch on the left hand side of the paper.

3. Use a footer or header with your name, course and page number.

4. A title page should be placed at the front of the assignment. This should contain your name, the subject, the title of the assignment, the name of the lecturer concerned, and the date. All assignments must be accompanied by an Essay Cover Sheet, which includes a Statement of Authorship

5. Students who wish to submit assignments via the postal system must ensure the envelopes are post marked no later than the due date for submission and are sent by registered mail. Students are advised that the School of Education takes no responsibility for assignments sent by post.

6. Assignments will not be accepted for marking after other work in that subject has been returned unless a special consideration request has been approved.

7. The completed assignment should be stapled or fastened in the top left hand corner. Please do not use manila or other forms of folders and please do not under any circumstances place each separate page in a separate plastic envelope.

8. Keep a copy of your the assignment/ report and other submitted work. Sometimes accidents do happen, mail fails to arrive or computers crash.

Note: Failure to follow these prescriptions will result in a lower mark on the essay.

The 最新糖心Vlog places a high priority on approaches to learning and teaching that enhance the student experience. Feedback is sought from students in a variety of ways including on-going engagement with staff, the use of online discussion boards and the use of Student Experience of Learning and Teaching (SELT) surveys as well as CEQ surveys and Program reviews.

SELTs are an important source of information to inform individual teaching practice, decisions about teaching duties, and course and program curriculum design. They enable the 最新糖心Vlog to assess how effectively its learning environments and teaching practices facilitate student engagement and learning outcomes. Under the current SELT Policy (http://www.adelaide.edu.au/policies/101/ ), course SELTs are mandated and must be conducted at least once every 2 years. Feedback on issues raised through course SELT surveys is made available to enrolled students through various resources (e.g. MyUni). In addition aggregated course SELT data can be found at:
