Education has become a political, economic and social priority for Australia, with the success of schools (and teachers) being an integral part of the economic and social future of the country. As a result, quality assurance for learning and teaching has become increasingly debated among policy-makers and the broader public, with a call for more evidence, data and standards to ensure that schools and teachers are held accountable for students’ learning outcomes.
In response, this book provides a snapshot of the types of evidence and data relating to learning outcomes thatare being collected in our classrooms within Australia. The chapters in this book seek to interrogate current views of learning and teaching, beyond what is measured in external assessments that only capture a limited view of student learning outcomes. The chapters explore a range of fundamental topics within education, including positive learning environments,student voice and assessment. They explore and articulate the vital knowledge and skills needed for current and future teachers. In addition, these chapters makeclear links betweenteaching, learning and the theories that frame, shape and inform these learning and teaching processes.
The research presented in this book provides practical and theoretical insights into learning and teaching in early years, primary,secondary and tertiaryeducation.
