Teaching Organisation Students will spend 200 hours in a placement with an approved Field Supervisor. Once a fortnight students will meet in a group for two hours with the lecturer (University Supervisor). Groups will provide a reference point and be a source of professional and personal learning. Supervision will total 50 hours and include supervision by the Field Supervisor and the University Supervisor via group and individual.

This unit requires students to synthesise their learning within a focus on reflective practice while undertaking a supervised practicum placement. Personal as well as professional learning will be integrated through group discussion and individual case presentations at seminars.
