Innovative Learning Environments offer educators many advantages over traditional environments, not the least of which is the ability to work with other teachers. But achieving successful co-teaching is not as simple as putting people in a room and hoping for the best.
This workshop will draw from the latest research to identify key areas for success, from team culture through to practical strategies for the classroom.

NURTURING LEARNER AGENCY THROUGH INQUIRY-ONLINE with Kath Murdoch – September 2020

Due to international travel restrictions this event is going ONLINE, but please note this session will NOT be recorded, so if you register, participation on the day is essential. To ensure this session is interactive numbers for this ZOOM  are limited to 40.

Learner agency has become a central goal of education systems around the world. Supporting learner agency means providing opportunities for students to make decisions about their learning and to build a repertoire of strategies that allow for more independent, thoughtful investigation. Inquiry as an approach to learning is a powerful vehicle to nurture agency as it invites learners to question, problem solve, investigate and act on learning most often in authentic, high-stakes, contexts.

Succeeding with Habits of Mind – ONLINE SELF PACED

The Habits of Mind are one of the true classics in education. Derived by Art Costa and Bena Kallick, the Habits of Mind describe what the most efficacious learners do when confronted with problems, the solutions to which are not immediately apparent.
The tipping point for succeeding with Habits of Mind is to shift from teaching about the Habits of Mind, and asking students to “use” the Habits of Mind, to teaching “for” the Habits of Mind and taking teacher action to ensure students are explicitly developing and improving how they engage with the Habits of Mind. 
This course will show you how to go beyond the basics, and ensure your work with Habits of Mind has a significant impact on student learning outcomes.

Complex Behaviour : Simple Interventions…for the classroom

A one-day workshop unpacking the neuroscience around complex behaviour.
Across Aotearoa, there are a growing number of children who display increasingly complex behaviours.  This can get overwhelming for those working in any profession where there is interaction with children and youth. Within schools, the issue is amplified due to the amount of contact time you have.  This means those of you working in schools can have an increased impact, but conversely, you can feel more overwhelmed. For some of our children, they have such complex needs, it is incredibly difficult to know where to begin…This one-day workshop will begin by unpacking the neuroscience of trauma.

LEARNING TRANSFORMED- 8 KEYS TO DESIGNING TOMORROW’S SCHOOLS, TODAY-AUCKLAND

AUCKLAND WORKSHOP
The current speed of technological breakthroughs has led to the coming age of workplace automation, dramatically altering the world of work that our students will enter. With all that is known about how students learn and the predictions regarding the world that our students will face tomorrow, a one-size-fits-all approach to teaching and learning is educational malpractice.
Built on the foundation of leadership and school culture, a redesigned learning experience fundamentally shifts the teaching and learning paradigm to one that’s personal.
Eric will dissect this approach to unlocking tomorrow’s schools so that today’s modern learners leave ready to create new industries, find new cures, and solve world problems.
