This is a hybrid course. It is available to both undergraduate and postgraduate students. The course content, delivery and assessment will be identical for both groups of students.

Subject Area: Education

This course aims to introduce students to some of the basic concepts, skills, and issues in visual arts education. The focus will be on the early stages of high school, but primary school syllabuses and learning environments will also be studied as a means to understanding various student learning needs and how to meet them. Students will be introduced to the processes of planning individual lessons, teaching a range of skills, using information and communication technology (ICT) and assessing student learning. Learning will be highly contextualised with knowledge about the nature of visual arts and visual arts education in Australia.
