Casual Markers in Education

The School of Education is seeking expressions of interest for an eligibility list of Casual Markers in Education in 2009. To be included on the eligibility list, applicants will have appropriate qualifications and experience in the related academic areas in education.

Academic areas in education: Early Childhood Education, Contextual Studies in Education (social, historical, philosophical, religious, international and curricular contexts of education – specific units also examine the educational impact of issues such as gender, indigeneity, race, colonialism and school-community relations), Learning and Teaching (planning for active learning in inclusive Primary and/or Secondary classrooms), Mathematics Education (Primary and Secondary), Special/Inclusive Education, Gifted and Talented Education, Creative and Performing Arts Education, English, Literacies and Language Education (LOTE/TESOL), Social Science Education, Information and Communication Technology Education, Science and Technology Education, Health and Physical Sciences Education and Educational Psychology.
