ECE as a contested profession: Ethics, politics and teaching

Description

This course critically examines some of the broader social, ethical and political contexts in which early childhood education is situated. Pre-service teachers will engage with a range of contemporary ethical dilemmas facing the early childhood profession. Drawing on selected critical frameworks, pre-service teachers will analyse and critique social, political and pedagogical conditions affecting practice. The course will complement learning in other courses in the Bachelor of Teaching and Learning (Early Childhood), including Professional Practice.
