This course introduces students to the research and development literature on Authentic and Productive forms of pedagogy. In particular, the course will outline major dimensions of classroom practice that have been identified in recent research as contributing to greater and more equitable student learning outcomes. In addition, the course will engage students in direct experiences of analysing their own and others' classroom practice using these concepts.
