Trimester 2, 2012



EDCX246 Society and Education
EDSS223 Teaching HSIE/SOSE in Primary School 1
EDEE212 English Teaching 2: Reading and Viewing
EDME369 Primary Math 2B - Stats, algebra and number

Four units again this Trimester, and all very different in terms of both content and teaching style.  Some units have video lectures, some only have topic notes and some only have a list of required readings and seemingly strange assignments.  I am trying to think about the different teaching styles and how I feel about them as a student in the hopes I remember what it feels like to be on the receiving end once I am a teacher.  It is all a learning opportunity and I am trying to get the most out of the experience that I can; it is not always easy.

I have had a very slow start to this Trimester and am only just now finding my feet.  Assignments are due in a few weeks and things are starting to get busy.  I need to get organised and tick the jobs off the list each day. Small steps are still progress.
