As a result of the ideas that were coming through from the brainstorming with staff around the big picture & Long term visions of what we want learning to look like, we have a plan

No 1. Project based learning to help move toward our student aims
How? year 9, 2 periods to support the curriculum through product based learning, innovative teaching ideas, strategies, team teaching the list. etc
No impact on school structure, just willing participants ( year 9 teachers)
We will need willing participants
Ideas and structures Periods to support this; (FOL, and scripture to be negotiated). 2 periods fortnight to support, embed, authentically build PBL.
2 lines of Year 9. 4 +Classes each side of the TT. Will not take from curriculum but deepen.
Volunteer teachers(preferably teach year 9)
how do we see it?how do we see it?
Needed to develop specification of structure and protocol, but not the detail of the project, this will be with the team
Follow on with year 8 skills, teams and Stage 4 collaboration.
Professional learning Term 4, year 8 as creators in the programming for year 9 2014
Staff need to understand the impacts.. desire to keep flexible
tutorial style, to individual learning to open group learning
Spaces... could be places where 12o students, 4 teachers in the MPC or some larger space, could be personalised individual learning alfresco (blank canvas)
structure supports..
Volunteers
Committed to developing 21st student skills
Commitment to PL
Integrated into each curriculum area, programs projects are built before the stage of the classroom
Toward deeper authentic learning
Team teaching focus within KLA and across KLAS
Committed Volunteers
2 periods in addition, allocated to support a KLA, which may rotate, it works in with the other work, it is not an add on, its a deeper learning of what may be happening in the other classes
Focus on project, collaboration etc. Again this needs to be nutted out.
StrucProjects-Tutorials/ seminars/ brain buzzes ???
How will it look?
Structure, 2 periods, could be 4 if teacher takes 2 groups may look like: Projects-Tutorials/ seminars/ brain buzzes/ whatever ???
Allocations: could balance with sport.. TT will need to outline the way it works on the TT.
Set around a strict set of educational protocols.
Curriculum of every year 9 would have, we may call it “opportunity learning” as support of their learning.
