Overview
This unit explores the complex relationship between our education system and the social, cultural, and technological contexts of which it is a part. The unit uses sociological theory to better understand students and learners, as well as how students' and learners' diverse backgrounds shape their experiences with the modern school or early childhood site. The unit will develop reflective and critical understandings of the socially, culturally and historically constructed nature of education and care and of the social identities and socio-cultural practices influencing contemporary early childhood, primary and secondary schooling.
Learning Outcomes
On successful completion of this unit you will be able to:
- Investigate key sociocultural concepts in education, including the impact of emerging technologies, using foundational research skills and scholarly literature.
- Evaluate educational programs using evidence-based approaches and ethical use of generative AI tools to support analysis and critique.
- Communicate scholarly and professional ideas across written, oral, and digital modes, demonstrating academic integrity and critical engagement.
- Assess the implications of sociocultural concepts for pedagogical practice.
Content
This unit develops a knowledge and understanding of the implications of socio-cultural factors such as socio-economic circumstances, social governance, contemporary culture and of social categories such as childhood, youth, gender, Indigeneity, and ethnicity for the children, families and communities with whom teachers work.
Content will include topics covering a range of theoretical and practical approaches/strategies underpinned by a socio-cultural perspective. Indicative topics include:
- Social Class and Education
- Gender, Sexualities and Education
- Race, Ethnicity, Indigeneity and Education
- Artificial Intelligence, Technology and Education
- Education and Governance across time
- Pre-adulthood and Schooling
- Subjectivity and Education

These learning approaches are designed to support critical thinking and reflection; to link theory to practice; and to prepare participants as ethical and independently-minded education professionals.
Feedback on Learning and Assessment
Assessment in this unit is both formative and summative. Generic comments via the Unit Learning Management System will be provided to the whole cohort. Formative activities such as in-class/or on-line tasks, reflections and discussions will support and develop participants' understanding of key concepts and scaffold their learning in preparation for summative assessment. Summative feedback is provided via written comments on marking rubrics/criteria sheets.
Assessment
Overview
Assessment in the unit is both formative and summative. Formative assessment comprises online and in-class discussions and professional conversations with academic staff and peers, as well as written and verbal comments made in response to assessment.
Summative assessment comprises two items. Each is designed to measure particular aspects of learning.

Assessment Tasks
Assessment: Pedagogical Initiative
The task requires you, in a small group of your peers, to develop a practical Pedagogical Initiative in response to a socio-cultural pedagogical situation that you are to develop from a specified unit topic/s.
Your situation should be authentic, centring on a matter in schooling or early years learning which can be verified. Your response is to include a theoretically informed rationale for the initiative and situation.
In your Presentation, you are to use Generative AI to assist in researching your response. In an exegesis or critical explanation within your Presentation, you are asked to critique the use of Gen AI, evaluating the extent of its usefulness for the task and as a tool for teachers in general.
The Presentation will be pre-recorded. A maximum of 15 presentation slides may be used.
The ethical and responsible use of generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) tools is authorised in this assessment. See the relevant assessment details in Canvas for specific guidelines.
This assignment is eligible for the 48-hour late submission period and assignment extensions.

Academic Integrity
Academic integrity is a commitment to undertaking academic work and assessment in a manner that is ethical, fair, honest, respectful and accountable.
The Academic Integrity Policy sets out the range of conduct that can be a failure to maintain the standards of academic integrity. This includes, cheating in exams, plagiarism, self-plagiarism, collusion and contract cheating. It also includes providing fraudulent or altered documentation in support of an academic concession application, for example an assignment extension or a deferred exam.
You are encouraged to make use of QUT’s learning support services, resources and tools to assure the academic integrity of your assessment. This includes the use of text matching software that may be available to assist with self-assessing your academic integrity as part of the assessment submission process.
Breaching QUT’s Academic Integrity Policy or engaging in conduct that may defeat or compromise the purpose of assessment can lead to a finding of student misconduct (Code of Conduct – Student) and result in the imposition of penalties under the Management of Student Misconduct Policy, ranging from a grade reduction to exclusion from QUT.
