Key issues: Identify the significant learning and teaching issues facing the teacher and learners and the relevant theories that underpin these key issues

1. Key issues: Identify the significant learning and teaching issues facing the teacher and learners and the relevant theories that underpin these key issues. Hint: At the bottom of each scenario you will find a heading: ’Scenario Specific Guidelines’. These guidelines are designed to assist you in identifying both the issues and related theory. 2. Implications: Evaluate the positive and negative aspects of what the teacher does and the impact of these on the learners (implications). The implications need to be linked to relevant theory and research to substantiate their evaluation and discussion. 3. Recommendations: Highlight recommendations to improve or further the teacher’s approach in the chosen scenario. Your recommendations should be clearly supported by specific relevant theoretical and research literature. – Apply both theory and research to the key issues, implications and recommendations. Each of the three distinct components listed above for your case study critique need to be substantiated with relevant theory and research literature. In the exam you must reference the current edition of the unit’s textbook and draw upon one recent refereed journal article (published within the last 5 years) to substantiate your discussion of relevant theory and research literature.
