About this subject

• What you'll learn

  At the completion of this subject students will be able to:

  1. create lesson plans by applying lesson planning processes, concepts and vocabulary to organise content into an effective sequence, considering learning and developmental theories, contextual factors, student needs, and constructive alignment, justified with relevant literature.
