THE BACHELOR OF EDUCATION
The Bachelor of Education course is offered concurrently on the Carseldine, Kelvin Grove and Mount Gravatt Campuses and supersedes the three former campus-based courses.
The course is designed to promote the further personal and professional development of teachers from the preschool, primary, secondary, special education and TAFE sectors.
It will provide opportunities for development of a critical understanding of the contemporary curriculum field and for examination of different views of education and
their underlying assumptions in the light of teaching experience. There will also be opportunity for personal growth through a re-examination of the teaching-learning process andfor participation in advanced studies that enable specialisation in disciplines related to the student's teaching career and studies that broaden and strengthen their earlier tertiary education.
The course is offered in the external mode and by part-time study in the evening on the Carseldine, Kelvin Grove and Mount Gravatt Campuses. It is also possible to complete the course as a full-time student. Day classes are scheduled for a small number of units.
The minimum time in which the course may be completed is two semesters full-time and four semesters part-time.
