The Educational Continuum

In this module there are two key models which inform the overall framework of the programme; an introduction to the Education Continuum and a presentation of the Health System. You will find it helpful to view each of the teaching clips. There is a lot of information covered, so expect to re-visit these reference points during the course.

There are two articles in the shared drive which are especially relevant to this module; Teaching, Learning, Schooling & Script, by myself, and The Health System, by Trudi Newton.

The Education Continuum provides a general overview of educational theory and practice. In addition to the descriptions presented in the clip, here are two more detailed accounts of education theory. This first one is the original typology developed by Napper & Newton, in TACTICS, (2015), available here.

This second one is a more recent version developed in the school context by myself, available here.
