Outreach Teacher Workshops
Certificate in Outreach & Popular Education:
a joint project of the TAFE Equity & Outreach Unit & the Centre for Popular Education at UTS
A series of 5 workshops designed to examine:
• How Outreach teachers and coordinators can make their courses an integral part of local community strengthening projects
• The nuts and bolts of being an effective Outreach teacher – the who, how, why and what.
• How Outreach can open up options and opportunities for its students, and help them take control of their own lives again.
The 5 topic areas have been selected as the key teaching skill areas required to enable teachers to be effective community educators. A team of facilitators is being finalised, but there will be a combination of UTS academics and experienced Outreach coordinators, to ensure that both the theoretical frameworks and the necessary practical skills are covered in each workshop.
Fri. 14 October: Negotiated Learning Derek Waddell
Fri. 28 October: Collective Learning Rick Flowers
Fri. 11 November: Keeping Access & Equity alive in VET Barbara Bee
Fri. 25 November: Teaching in and with your community
Camilla Couch, Anne Bicer & Liz Mackie
Fri. 9 December: Teaching Social Justice Mike Newman
Who can attend: any experienced teachers or community educators who:
• currently work in TAFE Outreach
• currently work in Disabilities, multicultural, Indigenous or other community areas
• would like to teach in these areas
A few more details about the workshops:
• They will each run for one day (9.30 am – 2.30 pm), with an hour break for lunch, informal discussion and reflection
• The workshops and lunch will be provided free of charge. Any travel or other expenses will have to be negotiated with your Outreach Coordinator or Equity Manager.
• You may choose to attend any number of workshops
• We intend restricting registrations to 25 participants for each workshop, so please register your interest early to avoid disappointment
• Anyone wishing to gain accreditation for these workshops (a UTS Certificate in Outreach & Popular Education) must attend at least 4, and complete a written assignment which will be assessed by Rick Flowers
• in 2006, we intend developing a fuller Certificate, which will probably include 3 additional modules: Community Practicum, Adult Learning & Teaching, and Portfolio Development.
