<p>This unit, which will expand Pre-Service Teachers' (PSTs) competencies as professional teachers, supports a ten day supervised teaching experience in an educational setting or educational program. It is designed to encourage, inspire and challenge PSTs to explore alternative learning settings in which high quality educational practice occurs. The placement is underpinned by the intention to extend the PSTs’ perceptions of teaching and learning beyond the traditional and familiar educational environment. PSTs are required to complete the activities outlined in Professional Experience Assessment Report (Form A). This will take place in collaboration with their Mentor Teacher in the education setting in which the placement occurs. The students will also document their professional learning in the Professional Experience Pre Service Teacher Learning Log (Form B) supported by their assigned University Mentor.</p>
