This module develops more complex understanding of the principles, aims and methodologies of national curricula/curricular frameworks explored in Year 1 and Year 2. Student teachers implement a range of methodologies and continue to experiment with and explore new and emerging technologies for teaching and learning to achieve planned outcomes in the curricular areas of Wellbeing, Arts Education, and Social, Environmental and Scientific Education.
The module will build on student teacher understanding of the significance of knowledge of the individual potential of pupils in their planning for teaching, learning and assessment of Visual Arts, Drama, Music, PE, SESE and SPHE, through Froebelian and child-led approaches.
Student teachers will connect relevant principles and theories of education, in the context of the relevant national curricula curricular frameworks, using well-developed skills of enquiry, to inform his/ her professional practice.

To this end, research associated with Froebelian practice and principles will be elaborated and extended upon. Collaborative and problem-based learning and differentiated teaching strategies will be examined in depth.
