Description

This course engages pre-service teachers in relational community-based experiential learning. The course includes relevant multi-disciplinary academic content, and guided reflection to support students' exploration of their role as committed members of the community. There is an expectation of enhanced understandings of intercultural knowledges and professional identity, and the ability to transfer that learning into formal educational settings.

*Please note this course is only available to initial teacher education students. To enrol in this course you need to be accepted and enrolled in one of our Initial Teacher Education programmes.

Learning Outcomes

At the end of the course students will be able to:

1. Demonstrate ability and commitment to engage constructively with community groups and inter-professional community support workers.

2. Demonstrate the knowledge and dispositions to work effectively within the community and increase relational practices; particularly as they would apply to teaching.

3. Apply theory critically to the complex contextual factors that may impact children, families/whānau in communities and relate to teaching using a reflective approach.

4. Develop strategies for practice that demonstrate knowledge of community engagement, its dynamics and impact on teaching and learning.
