- Drawing on information provided in recorded lectures , readings and video clips of interviews from the field, students will participate in discussion of examples drawn from placement experience. Students will commence building an eportfolio after this disucssion and use this to collect learning assets and reflect on their learning throughout the subject.
02. Differentiate a range of theoretical approaches to program design and apply critically one evidence based approach.
- Activities:
