Programme Summary: The Pre-Service Diploma in Education (Dip.Ed.) programme is designed to prepare beginning secondary school teachers to perform effectively from the outset, and to see the need to continue developing professionally throughout their teaching careers. It targets persons who have graduated with at least a bachelor’s degree and are desirous of becoming secondary school teachers. It also targets university graduates who have been working in other fields, but who wish to become secondary school teachers. The programme caters for professional preparation for teaching in a range of subjects offered in Trinidad and Tobago’s national curriculum and also those offered for examination by the Caribbean Examinations Council. By providing exposure to critical areas of subject and pedagogical knowledge and, at the same time, opportunities for supervised reflective practice in diverse teaching contexts, this programme will develop teachers who demonstrate, and continue to cultivate, professional attributes that all teachers are expected to possess. It has been conceptualised as a fulltime programme in response to the experience of the School of Education, and to feedback from graduates of its part-time programme. Because implementation of different components of the programme demands close and ongoing collaboration with schools and policymakers, it is also expected that the programme will facilitate the further development of meaningful relationships among stakeholders in education, and so contribute to a culture change in schools that will result in true educational improvement. The programme comprises the following seven courses: SEMESTER 1 EDME 5005: Educational Assessment EDFA 5211: Fundamental Concepts for the Beginning Teacher EDFA 5212: The Educational Milieu EDLA 5241: Designing Instruction for Adolescent Learners: The Teaching of English EDSC 5271: Designing Instruction for Adolescent Learners: The Teaching of Science EDSS 5281: Designing Instruction for Adolescent Learners: The Teaching of Social Sciences EDTL 5231: Practice in Education SEMESTER 2 EDRS 5221: Leading Professional Enquiry EDFA 5213: Addressing the Needs of the Whole Child EDLA 5241: Designing Instruction for Adolescent Learners: The Teaching of English EDSC 5271: Designing Instruction for Adolescent Learners: The Teaching of Science EDSS 5281: Designing Instruction for Adolescent Learners: The Teaching of Social Sciences EDTL 5231: Practice in Education PROGRAMME DESCRIPTION Philosophy This pre-service Dip.Ed. programme reflects the belief that avenues for access to education must be provided for all persons. It also reflects the belief that all students should have experiences of formal schooling that will promote their holistic development and academic success. Therefore, all students must be exposed to curricula which they perceive to be relevant, which combine formal knowledge with community knowledge, and which draw on their real-world experiences. The programme thus grounds the formal educational theory to which students will be introduced in participants’knowledge of their subject areas; the knowledge of schools and classrooms that they have constructed from their experiences at different stages of their development; and their social and cultural contexts. The programme’s field-based orientation reflects the belief that learners construct professional knowledge and develop a professional identity most effectively when they must deal with challenges that arise within authentic contexts of practice. Finally, this programme conceptualises educators as persons who are expected to make a contribution to the development of the societies in which they practise their profession. Courses within the programme are therefore designed to help participants understand the role and nature of the school in a dynamic society. Aims The programme aims to promote the initial and ongoing professional development of persons who wish to become secondary school teachers. 57
