Evidence of learning (EoL)

 For each module; take notes on "LEARNING MOMENTS" (inspiring ideas while studying) and "REFLECTION SLOTS" ("How could this help you to get better at what you do?")

To complete your action plan:

  • Revise your notes
  • Select one idea/technique/activity/material you would like to incorporate into your own practice.
  • Write an action plan (150-200 words) of what you'll do (specify who, what and when) to try the selected idea with a class or colleagues, explore further resources or interview a colleague about it.
  • Write a reflection report (350-400 words) including: PART 1 (150 words max): briefly comment on changes occurred to your action plan; PART 2 (200-250 words): Compare what you wrote in the reflection slots with what you think now, based on what you’ve learned. How has your understanding of this activity/ technique developed? Do you have any further questions to explore in your future practice?

A successful participant will:
  • demonstrate clear understanding of the technique/activity chosen.
  • demonstrate ability to apply theory to their own specific context and practice.
  • demonstrate understanding of the content of the course and appropriately apply what has been learned to classroom practice.
  • submit both sections of the Evidence of learning - the action plan and the reflection report - in a timely manner,
  • using language which is clear, accurate and appropriate for the task.
  • comply with the declaration of authorship.

 Some examples of PD activities.  CPD at my LTO (x intended to mean "we've never tried it, and I don't think we will): Organising CPD sessions TIME: Decide when is the best day and time in the week so all or most people can attend. Also, try to schedule after lessons, so teachers can focus on the session and not think about their next class. CONTENT: The manager may have areas she or he wishes the staff to develop. Ask Ts if something else is more important. RUNNING THE SESSION: An outside expert? (can be motivating) One of your teachers (recognizing their special expertise). REMEMBER: Regular PD sessions are more effective than one-off events. Return to topics and allow time for reflection. You should keep a record of the session content and who participated. Encourage Ts to keep their own record and build up a CPD journal.
