EDUP4109: Specialist Pedagogies for Learning B

2026 unit information

Success in education is determined by a range of factors. Teacher knowledge and understanding, student behaviours and characteristics, school-wide and systemic supports, and the active engagement of families and other key stakeholders. Catering to the diverse range of student needs can be one of the most challenging aspects of teaching. Understanding how to access supports, and work within a whole school approach are two features of education environments that lead to positive outcomes for all students. This unit will address success for learning through a critical examination of classroom practice and implementation of support across the primary curriculum.
