<p>This module is designed to support you in becoming a reflective, critical practitioner with a high level of curriculum design and delivery expertise. This module will direct you to apply and consider the impact of your learning on the course in your classroom setting. Through applying theory, scholarship and research in your classroom, you will learn how to reflect on classroom efficacy, developing both your range of teaching strategies and your capacity to evaluate their effectiveness. As you do so, you will also develop your curriculum expertise, building your curriculum knowledge through designing engaging and informative lessons and sequences of lessons, and through partnership with school-based experts. </p>
