Course aim

To develop preservice teachers’ theoretical, conceptual, and practical understanding of the design and technologies learning area and relevant curriculum.

Course content

Preservice teachers will develop an understanding of design and technologies as it relates to the Australian Curriculum and Early Years Learning Framework.

Furthermore, preservice teachers will develop a practical understanding of the learning area which is complemented through a critical analysis of contemporary pedagogies. Preservice teachers will gain experience with resources for teaching and learning while developing a greater awareness of occupational health, safety and welfare considerations.
