<p> The National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC) Position Statement of Developmentally Appropriate Practices (2009) serves as a pedagogical framework for best practice among early childhood educators. Developmentally Appropriate Practice (DAP) is guided by what is known about how children develop and learn. Teachers draw upon these principles to make decisions about planning experiences which promote learning and optimize children's growth. The DAP statement is accepted in the early childhood field as the standard by which quality early learning experiences are defined

Abstract:
“Practicum” refers to the time students undertaking initial teacher education programs spend in schools during their training. Its purpose is to enable the university and accredited teachers to assist student teachers to gain experience in translating educational theory into classroom practice. It is recognised as a vital component of teacher education. In 1998 the Australian Catholic University (ACU National) Melbourne campus, introduced the ‘extended practicum’ into their teacher education program.

Abstract:
Due to the new demands placed upon schools in our current learning society, teachers are expected to learn continuously. However, not much is known about how teachers learn. Three major problems are identified in the emerging literature. First, little is known about what constitutes meaningful learning from the teachers’ own perspectives. Second, there is a lack of a common framework for analysing and comparing findings across different studies on the process of teacher learning. This is a major obstacle in advancing the field. Third, factors affecting teacher learning are often studied in an
