TEP427: History in the Secondary School I

This unit explores the value of teaching History in the current educational context and provides relevant and innovative pedagogical strategies for secondary History teachers. Current syllabus developments and directions in teaching History are investigated and debated and student-based and cooperative learning strategies are modelled and discussed. There is strong focus on developing students' understanding of Literacy, Aboriginal Education, Multiculturalism and Civics and Citizenship Education. The unit examines how teachers can implement technology into their classroom practice to develop historical skills and understandings. It will examine different approaches to programming and lesson planning and develop students' awareness of the professional role of a teacher. All work and assessment in this unit is related closely to the experiences provided in TEP414.

Please consult the Secondary TEP Guide for recommended prior studies.
