ECCOP2002 Numeracy and Digital Technology

In this unit, pre-service teachers (PSTs) will explore numeracy and digital technology as essential components of early childhood education and everyday life. PSTs will engage with a broad range of mathematical concepts and investigate the integration of digital technologies; as tools for children's learning and as supports for educators¿ pedagogical practices. In collaboration with children, educators, and families, PSTs will extend children¿s existing knowledge, skills and interests through meaningful play-based learning experiences informed by contemporary approaches. A variety of strategies will be used to support, assess and communicate children's numeracy skills, fostering strong partnerships with families and enhancing educational outcomes. The unit encourages critical reflection on PSTs¿ own values, beliefs, and experiences with numeracy and digital technologies, and how these influence their teaching approaches. This unit includes a 10-day placement.

Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) unit fee

A Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) is one that is subsidised by the Australian Government, which means students only pay the student contribution amount of the tuition fee. CSPs are only available to eligible domestic students.

The student contribution amount depends on the unit and how much funding the Government provides. Each unit is classified into a band based on its discipline (which may be different to your overall course discipline).   

2026 student contribution amount: $1,185


2026 grandfathered student contribution amount (for students who commenced before 1 Jan 2021*): $1,185

* If you are a continuing student (who commenced your course before 1 January 2021) you will continue paying the same amount as you would have, had legislative reforms not been implemented for any units that would otherwise have an increased student contribution amount.

Clinical Psychology & Professional Pathways 

For Clinical Psychology & Professional Pathways bands, the student contribution amount is determined by the accredited course. Visit our CSP page for further information, including a list of accredited courses. Students not studying in an accredited course will pay the fees listed above. 

Domestic full fee–paying places

A domestic full fee–paying place is one that isn’t subsidised by the Australian Government. These places are offered to postgraduate students or those who are ineligible for a CSP. Domestic postgraduate tuition fees are course-based annual fees, which means individual unit fees vary according to the degree.

International full fee–paying places

International tuition fees are course-based annual fees and the unit fee you pay will vary according to the degree you are studying. To find out more about international tuition fees and view the relevant fee schedule visit our fees website
