Teaching as inquiry

Teaching as inquiryO Effective pedagogy requires that teachers inquire into the impact of their teaching on their students.Source: http://nzcurriculum.tki.org.nz/Curriculum-documents/The-New-Zealand-Curriculum/Effective-pedagogy

Focusing InquiryO What is important (and therefore worth spending time on), given where my students are at? This focusing inquiry establishes a baseline and a direction. The teacher uses all available information to determine what their students have already learned and what they need to learn next.Source: http://nzcurriculum.tki.org.nz/Curriculum-documents/The-New-Zealand-Curriculum/Effective-pedagogy

Teaching and Learning Inquiry O What strategies (evidence-based) are most likely to help my students learn this? The teacher uses evidence from research and from their own past practice and that of colleagues to plan teaching and learning opportunities aimed at achieving the outcomes prioritised in the focusing inquiry.

Teaching and LearningO This is the part where you do stuff….like teach…or even better, facilitate learning!

Learning InquiryO What happened as a result of the teaching, and what are the implications for future teaching? The teacher investigates the success of the teaching in terms of the prioritised outcomes, using a range of assessment approaches. They do this both while learning activities are in progress and also as longer- term sequences or units of work come to an end. They then analyse and interpret the information to consider what they should do next.Source: http://nzcurriculum.tki.org.nz/Curriculum-documents/The-New-Zealand-Curriculum/Effective-pedagogy
