Rules Variation Summary for 2009

Summary of Changes for 2009

Implications for current Bachelor of Arts/Bachelor of Teaching students

The structure of the Bachelor of Arts component has been modified to explicitly permit three curriculum areas to be undertaken (although not all combinations will be possible). History has been separated into Ancient History and Modern History; Modern Languages is now referred to as Languages and Society and Culture has been broadened. The units available in the curriculum areas are largely the same.

The structure of the Bachelor of Teaching component has changed more extensively and comprises:

Core Units: 48 credit points (this has increased from 30 credit points) including 60 days of professional experience:

  • EDCX400 Aboriginal Education
  • EDCX401 Curriculum and the Social Context of Schooling
  • EDEE400 Literacies in Context
  • EDLT400 Planning for Effective Learning
  • EDSP400 Inclusive and Special Education

  • PREX901 Professional Experience 1 (20 days)
  • PREX902 Profesisonal Experience 2 (20 days)
  • PREX903 Professional Experience 3 (20 days)

Assessment in all of the units offered in the Bachelor of Teaching component has been adjusted to not more than 4,000 words or equivalent to accommodate the professional experience component of the course. Consequently the professional experience units are 0 credit point units.

Curriculum Units: 24-36 credit points (depending upon a candidate's number of designated teaching areas). There has been no change to the curriculum units.

Elective Units: 12-24 credit points (depending upon a candidature's number of designated teaching areas).

There have been unit code and/or title changes to units in both the Bachelor of Arts component and the Bachelor of Teaching component. The following Bachelor of Teaching units have had code and/or title changes:
