Caring, Dynamic, Engaged The University of Johannesburgs Faculty of Education is engaged and dynamic in advancing education as professional practice and field of scholarly inquiry through excellence in teaching, research and community service. Although our Conceptual Framework for teaching and learning serves as our guiding principles in the design and execution of all our learning programmes, they are perhaps most visibly embodied in our three Initial Teacher Education programmes, namely: Bachelor of Education (BEd) in Foundation Phase Teaching (Grades R-3) Bachelor of Education (BEd) in Intermediate Phase Teaching (Grades 4-7) (subject to final approval) Bachelor of Education (BEd) focusing on High School Teaching (Grades 7-12) These programmes are not merely how to teach programmes. The focus is not on theories or on giving guidelines for the transfer of knowledge. Instead, they were designed to prepare our students to be critical thinkers, capable of continuous evaluation of their own contribution to education as well as to the wider community. In addition, through both the choice of learning content and the manner in which student learning is guided and supported, these programmes are aimed at inspiring our students to care about those they will teach, about what they will teach and about the way that their teaching can change their world.
