Humanities: Business management in secondary years A

This unit enables you to build a strong foundation for your career-long professional learning as a teacher of secondary school business management and related commerce studies. You will acquire a sound understanding of key theoretical and pedagogical perspectives and issues in the teaching of business management and related curriculum. Through an examination of a range of curricula and related documents drawn from state, national and international contexts, you will be familiarised with current developments in the theory, research, and practice of business management education. You will work independently, collaboratively and interdependently to develop your capabilities in planning and implementing appropriate curriculum and pedagogy. You will learn how teachers plan for and undertake educational projects and research as part of your professional work. The unit reinforces a view of learning about teaching as an ongoing, collaborative process that is developed through critical reflection on experience.
