Abstract

This practice based paper is about creating a model of practice which reflects the Principles of effective Learning and Teaching. Within these Principles the base premise is that learning and teaching is people centred; and therefore the core business of education is to improve learning outcomes and opportunities for learners and teachers to access effective learning and teaching. To do this, one must also acknowledge the importance of learning and that relevant programming and effective delivery are vital; however it is also the pedagogies employed that facilitate the learning. For the purpose of this paper pedagogy refers to the art and Science of learning and teaching. Effective pedagogies will create opportunities for effective learning and teaching.
