Objectives:

On successful completion of the module, students will be able to:
State how they have taken responsibility for their own professional learning following feedback
Reflect on their progress to date and identify key actions for their continued professional learning
Describe how they have managed their own time to respond to and take responsibility for their personal professional and academic targets

Content:

Students will consider pre course targets set, actions taken and the next steps for their own professional learning. They will reflect upon the objectives of the different elements of the taught course and with support from their Development tutor make links between theory and practice in preparation for their assessed block of school-based training.
Development tutors will support and monitor how students are engaging in the taught course, managing their time effectively using guided independent study time and taking responsibility from their professional and academic progress.
Students will engage in a range of directed tasks such as the capabilities audit and weekly evaluations. Development will support students in their developing reflective practice. This includes supporting students in seeking additional experiences they may need in school and/directing them to key texts that support further study and setting targets with the student for their continued professional learning.
