9. Audience: The summary is written for educators outside of
your cluster. Would a stranger understand it? Is the language
suitable for people outside of ICTPD?
National Goals Discoverability & Usability: Educators need to be able
to find your summary through appropriate title and tags to use
discuss, share & disseminate
Cluster Goals
More on Tagging: One controlled tag: ‘reflective summary’.
Suggested additional user generated tags: school type, specific
Success Indicators aspects of the curriculum (eg learning areas, KCs, Inquiry,
pedagogy), focus of one of the national cluster goal, cluster type,
gender, culture, ethnicity, year level
Implementation (Action Plan)
Visibility: The summary (resource) should be public but you
control the links or visibility to supporting evidence &
Ongoing Reflections reflection. During editing and reviewing phase set visibility to
Group only.
Summary Group resource: remember to upload it as a cluster group
resource, not a personal resource from a user, or a page or a
file.
