General Information

Overview

In Professional Practice 3 (Catholic School Placement), you will prepare for and complete an assessable professional experience placement in a Catholic school as a required component of your acceptance into the Catholic Education strand of your course. You will participate in tutorials, practical workshops and your school placement which comprises a four week continuous block. Your learning in this unit is designed around two integrated modules. In the first module, you will enhance your ability to design, adapt, implement and assess teaching sequences that cater for the diverse needs of learners in mainstream classrooms. You will develop knowledge of the purposes of using assessment for learning and practices for interpreting student data that inform differentiation practices. In addition, you will learn and apply teaching practices for setting learning goals, modifying lessons plans and learning sequences, adapting pedagogical approaches and using feedback techniques that are responsive to students’ learning needs. In the second module of this unit, you will build your knowledge and understanding of the particular strategies, rituals, traditions and resources that characterise the Christian belief practices of Catholic school communities. You will use this knowledge to reflect on the responsibilities of teachers within the Catholic schooling system and the nature of partnerships with parents / carers and the school community in supporting engagement and participation in the important personal and communal faith rituals of the Catholic tradition.

Assessment Tasks

1 Written Assessment

Assessment Title
Inquiry and Reflection on prayer practices in Catholic schools

Task Description

The Teaching and Learning Framework for the Catholic Diocese of Rockhampton refers to the following six defining features of Catholic schools within the Rockhampton Diocese:

  • Give witness to the message of Jesus and the mission of the Church
  • Have a clear Catholic identity.
  • Be communities of care.
  • Offer a relevant and holistic curriculum of quality teaching and learning.
  • Be open and accessible to all who seek (our) values.
  • Be characterised by inclusive partnerships within a community of faith.


Part (a): Using the suggested resources provided on your unit Moodle site, record specific examples of classroom and school practices that show how these six defining features could be expressed through prayer at a Catholic primary school site.

You must provide at least one example for each of the six identified defining features. (Maximum length for this section: 500 words.)


Part (b): Using selected information from your examples from Part (a) and your knowledge of spirituality and Christian prayer gained from unit readings, tutorials and the teaching resources provided in Religion curriculum documents, describe and explain the role of prayer in Catholic schools. Reflect on the responsibilities that teachers in the Catholic system have for modelling, teaching and building learners’ understandings of various expressions of prayer. (Length: 750 words)

2 Practical Assessment

Assessment Title
Design of an information resource

Task Description

Using unit materials, readings and resources, create a resource that would be suitable for an information session for adults (e.g. parents and carers, colleagues, etc) on one of the sacraments that comprise Christian rituals of initiation.

Your resource can be created in a form of your choice, such as a web page, PowerPoint presentation with notes pages, a video, information booklet or article but should consider the needs of an audience involved in preparing school-aged students for participation in the ritual (e.g. parents and carers, colleagues, etc). The resource should clearly explain and illustrate your understanding of the interrelationship between the origins of the ritual, its underpinning theology and structure, and contemporary pastoral and practical issues related to the preparation of students for participation in the sacrament. (Note that word limits do not apply to this section of the assessment task due to the variety of modes suitable for creation of the resource.)

The resource should be accompanied by a brief written reflection of approximately 250 words on the understandings you have gained through the design process about strategies for working effectively, sensitively and professionally with parents and carers and broader school communities in Catholic Education.

3 Professional Practice Placement

Assessment Title
Placement

Task Description

You are required to undertake a 4-week (20-day) supervised block placement in a school setting as detailed below.

During your placement, you will complete all tasks outlined in the Professional Practice 3 Information and Guidelines Booklet. These tasks include the development of a class profile to be used for modifying lessons and learning sequences (units of work) to cater for the identified needs of all learners in the class group and the design and application of assessment strategies for monitoring student learning and making judgements on the quality of learners' work.

Application of your curriculum, pedagogical and technological knowledge across a range of learning areas will also be key features of the professional experience block where you will be expected to engage in observation, team teaching and some continuous teaching as the placement progresses.

The placement is scheduled as per the 2021 Professional Practice calendar for students enrolled in the Term 1 offering of this unit.

An up-to-date hard copy working portfolio must be maintained throughout the placement. The working portfolio should document your practice throughout the placement and include all observation, planning and teaching tasks, assessment instruments and records, a full class profile and evaluation and reflection on teaching and classroom practice. Refer to the Professional Practice 3 Information and Guidelines Booklet (Table of PP3 tasks and activities) for further detail regarding the records to be maintained in the working portfolio.

Assessment for the placement will be completed by the Supervising Teacher using the electronic final summative report. The electronic report uses the same standards and descriptors as the sample report included in the Professional Practice 3 Information and Guidelines Booklet.

A full description for finalising the reporting process for your placement will be provided on the Moodle site in the task description for Assessment Task 3.


Assessment Due Date

This assessment task is due on completion of the four-week assessable block as per the approved Professional Practice calendar..

4 Portfolio

Assessment Title
Portfolio evidence

Task Description

You are required to submit evidence of your practice in Professional Practice 3 in the form of a portfolio. The portfolio will focus on a specific topic/concept/curriculum descriptor that you planned and taught during the placement.

The evidence should comprise the sections outlined in Parts 1 - 4 below. The collection of evidence should form the reference point for a 1000 word reflective statement that describes, evaluates and reflects on the decisions underpinning the teaching, planning and assessment cycle you implemented. (See further details and questions to guide the formation of this statement under the heading “Reflection statement” in the steps outlined below.


Part 1- Data and evidence

Provide samples of profiling data and evidence for two (2) learners representative of the range of ability levels in the class group (that is, one learner achieving beyond year level expectations and one learner achieving a standard below year level expectations). The data and evidence should clearly relate to the focus knowledge and skills for the planned learning sequence and establish the learning needs within the classroom that informed planning and the selection of differentiated teaching strategies.


Part 2 – Planning and teaching

Provide copies of your lesson planning that show how you have scaffolded the target knowledge and skills of the chosen topic/concept/curriculum descriptor. The planning should span a minimum of 3-5 lessons and show how the lesson sequence leads to demonstration of learning in an assessment task planned for the end of the sequence. Your planning must include explicit links to the Australian Curriculum, and each lesson plan must contain considerable detail that outlines the resources, pedagogy (methods and strategies) used, as well as how different needs are being catered for (differentiation). Formative assessment strategies must also be well detailed within the lesson plans.


Part 3 - Feedback and judgement

Provide annotated exemplars of student work (from the 2 learners) in response to formative assessment embedded throughout the lesson sequence. The exemplars should illustrate the feedback that you provided to students and show how the information collected informed adjustments to your planning and decisions about strategies that would improve/enhance student learning in subsequent lessons in the sequence.


Part 4 – Final assessment

Provide annotated exemplars of the final assessment task (from your 2 learners) undertaken at the conclusion of your series of lessons. It is anticipated that this final task will assess knowledge, understanding or skills for the concept/topic/curriculum descriptor that you have taught during your lessons.


Reflective Statement

Your reflective statement should describe and explain the learning focus in the series of lessons that you have designed and implemented during your placement; and secondly, evaluate and reflect upon the impact of your practice on student learning throughout the teaching, planning and assessment cycle. Use the following questions to guide you in formulating your statement:

  • How did the data and evidence you collected inform your planning and teaching, particularly with regards to differentiation for learners requiring support or extension?
  • How did the ongoing formative assessment in each lesson inform modifications to your teaching and planning?
  • What differentiation strategies were/were not effective in meeting the needs of your learners? Why were these strategies effective/not effective?
  • What outcomes were achieved by the learners? Justify your judgement by referring to your evidence from the ongoing formative assessment and annotated samples of student work.


Assessment Due Date

This assessment task is due one week after the completion of the assessable block component of the placement.

Academic Integrity Statement

As a CQUniversity student you are expected to act honestly in all aspects of your academic work.

Any assessable work undertaken or submitted for review or assessment must be your own work. Assessable work is any type of work you do to meet the assessment requirements in the unit, including draft work submitted for review and feedback and final work to be assessed.

When you use the ideas, words or data of others in your assessment, you must thoroughly and clearly acknowledge the source of this information by using the correct referencing style for your unit. Using others’ work without proper acknowledgement may be considered a form of intellectual dishonesty.

Participating honestly, respectfully, responsibly, and fairly in your university study ensures the CQUniversity qualification you earn will be valued as a true indication of your individual academic achievement and will continue to receive the respect and recognition it deserves.

As a student, you are responsible for reading and following CQUniversity’s policies, including the Student Academic Integrity Policy and Procedure. This policy sets out CQUniversity’s expectations of you to act with integrity, examples of academic integrity breaches to avoid, the processes used to address alleged breaches of academic integrity, and potential penalties.

What is a breach of academic integrity?

A breach of academic integrity includes but is not limited to plagiarism, self-plagiarism, collusion, cheating, contract cheating, and academic misconduct. The Student Academic Integrity Policy and Procedure defines what these terms mean and gives examples.

Why is academic integrity important?

A breach of academic integrity may result in one or more penalties, including suspension or even expulsion from the University. It can also have negative implications for student visas and future enrolment at CQUniversity or elsewhere. Students who engage in contract cheating also risk being blackmailed by contract cheating services.

Where can I get assistance?

For academic advice and guidance, the Academic Learning Centre (ALC) can support you in becoming confident in completing assessments with integrity and of high standard.
