What do I believe about teaching and learning?
Teachers, students and parents accept responsibility for their learning, behaviour and goal setting. Effective teaching is purposeful, challenging and connected to a student’s experience, stage of development and background. Programs need to be culturally and developmentally appropriate, having real-life application.
What do teachers reflect?
Reflective teaching means that you take a look at what you do in your classroom, and think about why you do it. Then, think about whether this works for your students and for yourself. Why is reflection important in teaching? Well, when reflecting, you’re collecting information about what goes on in your classroom.
