ED-M04 Curriculum Design and Realisation

This module is designed to enable students to engage deeply with the concepts and the international research that have informed recent curriculum development in Wales. It will enable students to consider curriculum design and realisation in different contexts, including their own. The module will equip students to evaluate different curriculum design approaches and to critically appraise the various implementation processes that accompany curriculum change within education institutions and systems.
EDPM30F Research Informed Reflective Practice for Modern Foreign Languages

This module develops student teachers as Research-informed reflective practitioners through a range of learning experiences designed to enhance the critical awareness that new entrants to the teaching profession will need to refine their teaching, influence their pupils and ensure they advance in their learning (Welsh Government circular, 001/2018). Student teachers will develop an understanding of, and ability to employ, effective strategies for teaching and learning in their subject area and Area of Learning Experience (AoLE). Taught sessions will focus on the application of subject knowledge to support an understanding of pedagogy and curriculum design to promote the four purposes of Education as outlined in the new curriculum (Donaldson, 2015). Student teachers will address issues relevant to the wider context of the Welsh Government policy on the curriculum and the National Frameworks for Literacy, Numeracy and Digital Competence. The programme will ensure that students gain an understanding of current legislation, including an understanding of the Curriculum Cymreig and Welsh language requirements. They will also develop and consolidate teaching strategies to ensure they are appropriate to their subject area/AloE with a strong focus on lesson and unit planning, taking into account those issues which impact on planning for effective teaching and learning in their subject. Student teachers will develop an awareness and understanding of research skills and research literacy that will help them throughout their professional career and continuously develop their approaches to learning and teaching in order to maximise the impact on learner outcomes. Student teachers will examine research literature and explore their own practice through the implementation of a close to practice research project to systematically develop their professional practice and respond creatively to the needs of all pupils. In doing so they will develop their reflective skills which will ensure that they are engaged with up to date evidence and the skills of research inquiry.

Bydd sesiynau a addysgir yn canolbwyntio ar gymhwyso gwybodaeth bynciol i gefnogi dealltwriaeth o addysgeg a chynllunio cwricwlwm i hyrwyddo pedwar diben Addysg fel yr amlinellir yn y cwricwlwm newydd (Donaldson, 2015). Bydd athrawon dan hyfforddiant yn mynd i¿r afael â materion sy¿n berthnasol i gyd-destun ehangach polisi Llywodraeth Cymru ar y cwricwlwm a¿r Fframweithiau Cenedlaethol ar gyfer Llythrennedd, Rhifedd a Chymhwysedd Digidol.

Bydd athrawon dan hyfforddiant yn datblygu ymwybyddiaeth a dealltwriaeth o sgiliau ymchwil a llythrennedd ymchwil a fydd yn eu helpu trwy gydol eu gyrfa broffesiynol gan ddatblygu eu dulliau dysgu ac addysgu yn barhaus er mwyn mwyhau¿r effaith ar ddeilliannau dysgwyr. Bydd athrawon dan hyfforddiant yn archwilio llenyddiaeth ymchwil ac yn archwilio eu harfer eu hunain trwy weithredu prosiect ymchwil agos-at-ymarfer i ddatblygu eu harfer proffesiynol yn systematig ac ymateb yn greadigol i anghenion pob disgybl. Wrth wneud hynny, byddant yn datblygu eu sgiliau myfyrio a fydd yn sicrhau eu bod wedi ymgysylltu â¿r dystiolaeth ddiweddaraf a¿r sgiliau ar gyfer ymholiad ymchwil.

Taught sessions will focus on the application of subject and phase-related knowledge to support an understanding of pedagogy. Student teachers will develop an understanding of the importance of providing a broad and balanced curriculum suitable for meeting the diverse needs of the pupils they teach. Student teachers will examine issues relevant to the wider context of Welsh Government policy on the curriculum and the national frameworks for Literacy, Numeracy and Digital Competence. The module will ensure that students gain an understanding of current legislation, including an understanding of the underpinning four purposes of the curriculum, and Curriculum Cymreig, ESDGC, religious education, Children¿s Rights and the Welsh language. Students will learn about the importance of critical reflection and reflective practice for professional development and school improvement by considering, applying and critiquing reflective models such as Schön and Brookfield. They will apply this critical reflection to their own professional practice, reflecting on their teaching and assessment strategies to ensure they are appropriate in supporting effective learning.
