inquiry teachers pedagogy learning 21st Century Learning

shared by Aaron Davis on 22 Feb 14 - No Cached
  • The planning and the teaching are certainly deeply connected but – too often, inquiry seems almost synonymous with ‘units’.   The cringe-worthy phrase “we do inquiry” usually means: we fill in an inquiry planner using a cycle/framework of inquiry
  • Inquiry is not just about knowing how to plan – it’s about how we teach
  • 1. They talk less
  • ...13 more annotations...
  •  2. They ask more.
  •  3. They relate
  • 4. They let kids in on the secret
  • 5. They use language that is invitational and acknowledges the elasticity of ideas.
  • They remain open to possibility…
  •  6. They check in with their kids – a lot
  •  7. They collaborate with their students. They trust them!
  •  8. They use great, challenging, authentic resources
  •  9. They are passionate and energetic.
  •  10. They see the bigger picture
  • 11. They invite, celebrate and USE questions, wonderings, uncertainties and tensions that arise from their students.
  • Good inquiry teachers know how to get more kids thinking more deeply more of the time.
  • Programs and planners don’t make inquiry happen. Teachers and learners do.

    A great post from Kath Murdoch in which she outlines how inquiry teacher teach. What I really liked about it is that even if you don't 'do inquiry' you can still take some of the facets of an inquiry teacher.

These teaching strategies are designed to support purposeful teaching of individuals and small groups of students with similar learning needs. It is intended that teachers use the strategies in the context of their own classrooms, text or topic being taught."

  • Apart from just observation, which is very important, what rigorous processes can we implement to reflect upon and use to answer this question?
  • The analysis of the information collected is not intended to give individual feedback to teachers but to provide whole school information about strengths and weaknesses in the implementation of formative assessment strategies.
  • A high level of trust among staff is important to ensure the authenticity and success of the Walkthrough process. It is seen as a supportive way to ensure that we hold each other accountable for achieving our scoreboard.

  • Raising the performance of our entire teaching team is the focus as well as each teacher taking individual responsibility for improving their implementation of quality teaching practices.

shared by Aaron Davis on 28 Feb 14 - No Cached
  • Put simply, a digital footprint is what your students would see if they Googled themselves. And whether or not they know it, each of them has a footprint online. A digital footprint is made up of both passive information about Internet use and actively volunteered content.
  • Establishing a positive digital footprint involves more than educating our students about what they should choose to keep offline. We should also be teaching them what to publish to improve their digital image.
  • effective uses of student blogs engage others in meaningful conversations.

  • quality classroom blogging should transcend the classroom altogether, bridging the gap between school, home, and the world our students live in.

  • 1) Ticket out the door
  • Over time the students felt comfortable enough to tell me when they really didn't like the learning style I was using or that they enjoyed a particular way I presented the content. I had a better grasp on the learning my students were doing and they had a better grasp on the content. It was a definite win-win.

Leadership effective schools learning

shared by Aaron Davis on 11 Jun 14 - No Cached
  • One of the first leadership decisions I made was to work with staff to audit our schools meta-curriculum. That is all of those programs, events, celebrations, operational arrangements and practices which are not core to the teaching and learning that happens inside classrooms.
  • My mantra was to “give teachers permission to spend their time improving the learning of the students in their class with minimal disruption”.
  • Students are spending less time out of classrooms and more time focused on their own learning.
  • Aaron Davis on 11 Jun 14
     
    A great post from Jason Borton discussing how he worked with his leadership team to refocus his school on learning.
