In this video, we dive deep into the powerful impact of co-teaching on student success and the creation of truly inclusive classrooms. We’ll explore how the collaboration between educators not only enhances the learning experience but also fosters an environment where every student can thrive. By combining their expertise, co-teachers can tailor instruction to meet diverse needs, offering more personalized support and ensuring that no student is left behind. Join us as we unpack the benefits of co-teaching and demonstrate how this approach can lead to significant improvements in student outcomes, making classrooms more inclusive, engaging, and effective for all learners.

A sense of community and belonging is essential to any college students journey. Professors Roxanne Sorrick, Ed.D, and Jo Line, Ph.D. are exploring what community and belonging looks like in their new team-taught 12-week course "Is There An 'I' in Team?" Students in this course were tasked with exploring and redesigning club rooms on campus that have gone underutilized in previous years. Learn more about the courses concept and the on-going project below.

How do you structure and scaffold your lessons to facilitate the development of independent learning skills for all students, including your multilingual learners? The Education Endowment Foundation (EEF)'s seven-step model offers a comprehensive framework to "shift responsibility for learning from the teacher to the student"* gradually, either within a single lesson or across a series of lessons. For multilingual classrooms, it is crucial to ensure equitable opportunities for all students to develop these independent learning skills alongside accessing the more advanced concepts and skills from our curricula. So as you review and adjust your curriculum frameworks for next academic year, consider spending time to reflect on which of the following scaffolds could support your learners at each of these seven steps outlined in this model: - visuals; - multiple-choice questions; - cloze paragraphs; - sentence starters; and - learning checklists. By providing essential scaffolding at each stage of this framework we can make independent learning skills accessible to all students, in turn creating inclusive learning environments where every student has the support they need to become confident, independent learners. #inclusivelearning #teachingandlearning #teachers #schools #learning #ealteachers #multilinguallearning * @John Holmes: https://lnkd.in/e3GVQ-DU

A good read summarising the EEF metacognition report in practice. Teachers need to plan the journey to independence carefully. It’s a generative process and the EEF recommendations scaffold the shift. “Basically, any time that you, as a learner, look up an answer or have somebody tell or show you something that you could, drawing on current cues and your past knowledge, generate instead, you rob yourself of a powerful learning opportunity” (Bjork and Bjork, 2011, p61).

It needs strategic scaffolding and support to gradually build motivation and competence, empowering individuals to become self-sufficient and confident in their abilities. #masterylearning #autonomy #confidence #competency #independence
