Certificate IV in Screen and Media vs. School-Based Education Support. One the one hand, I enjoy creative pursuits every much and when it comes to TAFE courses, have often flown through the content, this time having a whole three weeks to spare at the end of the course. On the other hand, Education Support is more likely to get me employment locally (or anywhere, for that matter), and I have three years experience tutoring English in China to springboard from (or 'off of' as they say in North America). That said, because of having done the Certificate III in Screen and Media, plus another course I did in 2015, I've already completely exactly half (literally 50%) of the subsequent course, meaning I will be studying it part-time. Education Support is automatically part-time. I will have to take Education Support's practical placement into account and how that may impact my learning of Screen and Media if I choose to do both.

Time for a change! The Government has opened its curriculum and assessment review - if ever there was an opportunity to bang the Careers drum, this is it! Wouldn't it be lovely to have Careers be a part of the compulsory curriculum? Wouldn't it be even better, to have Careers embedded into subject curriculums so that it habitually becomes part of every lesson in every classroom (not to take away from the great GB4 work that's taking place in some schools!). If, like me, you believe that Careers deserves a greater role in the curriculum, use your voice and have your say - https://lnkd.in/e-JzHMVy

Unpopular Opinion I saw a LinkedIn post the other day about how hiring managers should hire Transitioning Teachers for Instructional Design (ID)/Learning and Development (L&D) roles. I laughed in Spanish. 😬 🧑🏫 Meanwhile, those same transitioning teachers seek professional advice and guidance from IDs with none K-12 background for tips on how to transition into Corprate L&D/ID. Let’s be guided! ⚠️ ✨✨✨Nobody is better than anybody. There is room for everyone to shine and thrive. I fully support Career Transitions but please don’t undermine the value others with core Instructional Design/ Corporate L&D experiences bring to the industry. 🧑🏫🧑🏫🧑🏫Corporate workplace is not the same as your elementary schools. The method and practice for designing learning for children isn’t the same as adults (Pedagogy vs Andragogy). Teaching in K-12 doesn’t make you superior neither does it guarantee your success in facilitating meaningful learning experiences for adults in the workplace. Let’s be guided! ⚠️ 🎖️🎖️🎖️Even though the job market is what it is right now, everyone has a responsibility to put their best foot forward. And while the best man may not always win, it shouldn’t be because someone said, candidates with K-12 background are better than those without. #instructionaldesigners #transitioningteachers #hiring #learninganddevelopment

#Strategies #Educators #Specific #Needs #Student Strategies educators can use to identify and meet the specific needs of each student. (Part 2) 6. Learning Style Inventories: Administering learning style inventories or surveys can help educators understand how students prefer to learn and process information. This information can guide the design of instructional strategies and materials that cater to individual learning preferences. 7. Collaboration with Support Staff: Collaborating with support staff, such as special education teachers, counselors, or English language support specialists, can provide valuable insights into students' specific needs. These professionals may have additional assessments or observations that can contribute to a more comprehensive understanding of each student. The successful implementation of these strategies necessitates a steadfast commitment, adaptability, and ingenuity on the part of educators. By placing personalized learning, differentiated instruction, ongoing assessments, student portfolios, adaptive technologies, collaborative learning, and social-emotional learning programs at the forefront, educators can seamlessly cater to the distinct needs of every single student. This meticulously tailored approach not only amplifies academic accomplishments but also nurtures an authentic ardor for learning, empowering students with the essential competencies and a forward-thinking outlook crucial for flourishing in an ever-evolving world. Embrace these transformative strategies and unleash the full potential of your students, propelling them towards a future of limitless possibilities.
