Teacher inquiry and knowledge-building cycle: Tool for reflection
To promote valued student outcomes
What are our students’ learning needs?
- What do they already know?
- What sources of evidence have I used?
- How do I build on what they know?
What are our own learning needs?
- How have I contributed to existing student outcomes?
- What do I know that I can use to promote improved student outcomes?
- What do I need to learn to promote improved student outcomes?
- What sources of evidence/knowledge can I use?
Design of tasks and experiences
- Strategies I will develop and implement in my teaching to meet my students’ needs linked to the professional learning goal...
- Target group goal and teaching plan...
Teaching actions
- Deliberate teaching strategies I will use...
- Support I need to achieve my goals, for example, feedback on my teaching, coaching, resources, readings, focused observations of others...
What has been the impact of our changed actions?
- How effective have these actions been in promoting my students’ learning and well-being?
- How will I know I have made a difference for my target group – evidence of improved achievement/impact of my teaching?
- Reflection and new goal
