​THE ENVIRONMENT IN WHICH WE LEARN AND TEACH

I don’t believe quality instruction ever left the classroom. Successful teachers have always had a thorough understanding of how students learn and have adopted and adapted pedagogies informed by research, reflection and inquiry.

What are the elements of your environment?

Who was involved in the planning?

How do you respond to your environment? ​

Now draw where you want to be.

Now create a timeline of action.
