Pre-service teachers will extend their understanding of theory and research that influences their pedagogy, the selection of teaching strategies to support student learning and guide the decision making processes for connecting teacing and learning. Pre-service teachers will engage in a viva voce identify priority areas for individual professional learning with a major focus on assessment.
