EUN108 Science Curriculum and Pedagogy

Science is necessary for understanding the world around us. From birth onwards, children actively explore their environment and try to make sense of their world. You will enhance your content knowledge, particularly in the areas of biology, chemistry, physics and earth and space science, through your participation in inquiry-based and hands-on learning activities. This will be integrated with pedagogical and curriculum knowledge to enhance your repertoire of instructional approaches, and to develop your pedagogical content knowledge for teaching to all learners. This unit will build on theories of teaching and learning from previous units including literacy, numeracy, and digital literacies, and will provide you with the knowledge and skills to develop and implement age-appropriate science learning experiences. If you selected Science as your primary specialisation, it is reccommended you take EUN303: Science Primary Science Specialisation 1 alongside this unit.
