Length 90.0 hours

Course outline View

During the Capstone Project, participants will reflect upon the themes and concepts, key insights and points of learning from each PIDP course and how they understand the integration of these insights in terms of their own work. The participants will develop and deepen the reflection of their personal experiences in the program and the implications for their practice, and articulate a personal teaching philosophy. Last, the participants will design, deliver, digitally record and self-assess a 45-90 minute lesson which will be delivered in a real setting.

This is a self-paced course in which participants work on their own, in consultation with their PIDP Advisor, to complete the course requirements.
