Teaching
| Teaching Pattern | You will learn about intelligent systems and how they are used. Through online learning activities and workshops, you will explore topics such as robotics, machine learning and artificial intelligence (AI). Working independently and or in teams you will develop a robotics or systems project applying theory to practice. You will report on the overall project design, implementation, outcomes and key learnings, and reflect on how you managed yourself and relationships. This unit builds on concepts of learning through practice in Year 1 of study by introducing you to more complex learning experiences. You will be introduced to: - discipline-based skills and knowledge in dynamic practice situations. This will include authentic and purposeful, industry-related experiences - concepts of managing effective relationships and communicating with others - the development and use of adaptive leadership skills and how these skills relate to innovative and entrepreneurial practice - the nature of responsible, accountable and reflective workplace skills, and creative and critical thinking relevant to para-professional practice. You will exercise self-awareness, initiative and judgement to manage yourself and professional relationships effectively. The application of tacit knowledge and capabilities will be reflected in a Practice Manual. |
