E- learning BOP

The broad learning intentions for today:  

to construct shared understanding of what it means to be literate in the 21st century.

to explore the draft literacy progressions and their connections with a literate 21st person.

to expand repertoires of practical strategies, processes and ideas for using ICT to support theliteracy progressions

to develop an online environment where these strategies can be shared so that other teachers from our schools can benefit from them and so that they can continue to be developed

Draft Agenda :

What does it means to be literate in the 21st century? Create a profile that represents the groups ideas

 Explore the Draft Literacy Progressions.

How might ICT support the draft literacy learning progressions? Hands on – Sharing Strategies.

Sharing our ideas online

Developing collaborative cultures is the work of leaders who realise that a collection of superstar teachers working in isolation cannot produce the same results as interdependent colleagues who share and develop professional practices together. (Garmston & Wellmann, 1999, p 18)

“ The real magic in a quality learning experience comes not from boxes, wires and expensive digital equipment. The real magic comes from teachers who have high expectations, create relevant and challenging learning experiences, supported and scaffold pupils to success, and provide quality feedback for their pupils.”

Trevor Bond

Effective PedagogyWhat does page 34 and 35 say about teacher actions that are likely to promote student learning?

If these elements were ‘alive and kicking’ in the classroom, what sort of things could you expect to see ?

Post Box Activity:With a partner spend 15minutes with your document in hand , discussing each of the seven elements of effective pedagogy. What do they look like in a classroom? With and with out ICT.

As you wander around, record what sort of things you do or have seen others do to promote this element of effective pedagogyi.e. Creating a supportive learning environment - class treaty, class blog

Effective Pedagogy - Time to Reflect• Of these elements which do you think you do particularly well? • Which element do you think you could improve on?• What ideas has this activity offered you?
