SkillIdentification
Hard Skills: specific, teachable abilities or knowledge that are quantifiable and often
job-related. These skills are typically learned through education, training, or
experience and directly apply to a particular task or role (Bolles, 2019).
Soft skills: interpersonal or people skills are non-technical skills that relate to how you
interact with and relate to others. They are often intangible and are crucial for effective
communication, collaboration, and personal development (Bolles, 2019).
Theconstitution
It is usually a
written instrument.

of government.
It cannot be altered or
ammended easily.
The constitution is the basic principles and laws of a nation, state, or social group

Editor's Notes

  1. What do we mean by self analysis? Have you ever self analysed? What do you do? Turn to page 6 in your booklet and list 3 areas of strengths and weakneses regarding your role as an educator. ( 10 minutes) Look at the tools available to us to give us some insight into our selves. Take 10 minutes to complete your learning style inventory
  2. Lets dive into the reflections questions on page 7 of your booklet
  3. Use the information on page 8 to guide in developing your SMART goals. Be sure to consider the goals of your organization, areas where growth is need for you personally and professionally and align both. This will facilitate your growth as an individual while contributing to your institutions overall mission.
  4. Lets check out this cool video.
  5. Lets examine a willing participants goals to ensure they are SMART. Share your goals with colleague and analyse each others goals to ensure they are Smart. Provide detailed verbal or written feedback to support each other.
  6. Welcome to session 2. now that we have completed our SMART objectives we will look at the skills we need to achieve these objectives as well as chart a pathway to success.
  7. Now, let's move on to the third step in creating your Professional Development Plan, which is all about identifying the skills you need to achieve your goals. In this step, it's crucial to recognize both hard skills, which are specific content knowledge or technical abilities, and soft skills, like communication and adaptability. Hard skills are the specific qualifications or expertise required in your field, while soft skills are the personal attributes that help you work effectively with others. Take some time to list the skills you believe are essential for your goals. Consider both the hard skills, list these on page 9 of your booklet.
  8. What comes to mind as we observe this picture? What does it say about this journey? Map out possible routes to achieving your goal Now we select the path that aligns best with your strengths, resources, and aspirations. There are often multiple routes to reach your goals, and evaluating and picking the one that suits you best is essential. This path should leverage your strengths, consider your available resources, and align with your long-term aspirations. It's worth noting that your chosen path can significantly impact your journey. Some paths may be quicker but more challenging, while others may be longer but provide a smoother experience. Take your time to explore and seek advice from mentors or professionals who have already walked similar paths.” On Page 10 of your booklet following careful reflection document your pathway to goal achievement.
  9. It's essential to break down the goals into specific actions. These actions can include finding a mentor, attending a relevant class, gaining experience through a project, or even acquiring a new certification. These steps should be achievable and realistic. Ask a peer to evaluate your actions. Remember not to overcommit. Having a few well-defined, achievable action items is better than a long list that might overwhelm you. These actions will serve as your roadmap to reaching your goals.
  10. On page ten consider the resources you need, list them, and indicate the source for each.
  11. Without deadlines, it's easy to procrastinate or lose track of your progress. Setting specific timelines for completing each action item provides a sense of urgency and helps you stay focused on your goals.
  12. Thank you for joining us today. We have an exciting presentation lined up on "Differentiated Opportunities for Professional and Personal Development." Here's a quick overview of what we'll cover today.
  13. Before we delve into the various opportunities, let's discuss why personal and professional development is crucial.
  14. Let’s remind our selves of the importance of PPD.
  15. People have different ways of learning. Some of us are visual learners, while others prefer auditory or kinesthetic learning. It's essential to recognize these preferences when seeking development opportunities.
  16. Howard Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences reminds us of various forms of intelligence. We explored these intelligences in our first session so we can use it to guide our development choices.
  17. Development Opportunity 1 - Book Study Our first opportunity is the classic book study. This is ideal for those who love reading and writing. It involves selecting relevant books, setting reading goals, and organizing discussions or reflections. Development Opportunity 2 - Job Shadowing Moving on to job shadowing a great choice for visual and kinesthetic learners. This involves learning from experienced professionals by observing their day-to-day work. It's a hands-on approach to gaining insights. Development Opportunity 3 - Professional Development Professional development, such as attending conferences, webinars, or seminars, is excellent for auditory and interpersonal learners. It's an opportunity to network, collaborate, and share knowledge with others. Others include: Short Courses Short courses are versatile and cater to various learning preferences.
