This document provides resources for changing attitudes in schools, including recommended reading on developing growth mindsets and improving school culture. It also lists surveys and assessments that can evaluate mindsets within individuals, classrooms, and entire schools. These include a survey to assess professional collaboration, affiliative collegiality, and self-determination/efficacy. Additionally, quick surveys are referenced to assess mindsets within oneself, students, classrooms, and the school to identify areas for development.

The
School Leader’s Tool
for Assessing And improving school culture
By chRistopheR R. WagneR
O
nce thought of as a soft approach to school improvement
efforts, school culture has finally amassed the depth of
research necessary to qualify as a mainstay in a school
leader’s annual improvement plans. Every school has a
culture, and every school can improve its culture.
And school culture may be the missing link—a link that has much
more to do with the culture of the school than it does with elaborate
curriculum alignment projects, scrimmage tests, and the latest buzz-
word reform efforts—in the school improvement conundrum (Wag-
ner & Hall-O’Phalen, 1998). Several authors and researchers (Levine
& LeZotte, 1995; Sizer, 1988; Phillips, 1996; Peterson & Deal, 1998;
Frieberg, 1998) agree and refer to school climate, and more specifically
to school culture, as an important but often-overlooked component of
school improvement.
Assessing School Culture
School culture consists of “the beliefs, attitudes, and behaviors which
characterize a school” (Phillips, 1996, p. 1). School culture is the
shared experiences both in school and out of school (traditions and
celebrations) that create a sense of community, family, and team
membership. People in any healthy organization must have agree-
ment on how to do things and what is worth doing. Staff stability and
common goals permeate the school. Time is set aside for schoolwide
recognition of all school stakeholders. Common agreement on cur-
ricular and instructional components, as well as order and discipline,
are established through consensus. Open and honest communication
is encouraged and there is an abundance of humor and trust. Tangible
support from leaders at the school and district levels is also present.
PREVIEW
School culture affects
everything that happens
in a school, including
student achievement.
A simple survey allows
schools to evaluate three
main aspects of school
culture: professional
collaboration, affiliative
collegiality, and self-
determination/efficacy.

Synthetic Fiber Construction in lab .pptxPavel ( NSTU)
Synthetic fiber production is a fascinating and complex field that blends chemistry, engineering, and environmental science. By understanding these aspects, students can gain a comprehensive view of synthetic fiber production, its impact on society and the environment, and the potential for future innovations. Synthetic fibers play a crucial role in modern society, impacting various aspects of daily life, industry, and the environment. ynthetic fibers are integral to modern life, offering a range of benefits from cost-effectiveness and versatility to innovative applications and performance characteristics. While they pose environmental challenges, ongoing research and development aim to create more sustainable and eco-friendly alternatives. Understanding the importance of synthetic fibers helps in appreciating their role in the economy, industry, and daily life, while also emphasizing the need for sustainable practices and innovation.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
