***TEACHING AND LEARNING*** Thread 🧡 To improve the use of teaching and learning techniques in the classroom we need to define them β€œthis is how we do it here” and make it common practice across the school. When implementing T&L techniques their success relies on this clarity and creating opportunities for teachers to deliberately practice. What have we done @LHS_HighSchool? STEP 1 We have identified 10 core T&L techniques. /1

***CODIFYING FEEDBACK*** Thread 🧡 What are we @LHS_HighSchool doing to codify feedback and create opportunities for students to feedforward? All too often feedback doesn’t create opportunities for students to feedforward and allow application to different contexts from across the curriculum. It ends up looking at isolated components / composites creating a disconnect between what has been learnt and the extent to which students are successful with applying knowledge. How are creating clarity and consistency across subjects when students are demonstrating their proficiency in applying knowledge to the subject disciplines? How do we create opportunities for students to respond and act on the feedback? @mel_mwicks @MissCole279 Read below πŸ‘‡

Exactly one year ago I introduced the idea of RECALL sheets to our HODs to not only help our students but also our parents understand our assessment approach across departments. Receiving this today is why I do what I do and love my job #edutwitter #assessment #proudlytaaleem
