Building a Culture
Watch the video and identify the key elements of building a culture. How can you translate this to building a learning culture in the school?
[youtube http://youtu.be/GYCYJigKKRc] Video: Building and sustaining a school culture (5:07)
Professional learning is effective when peers collaborate with each other in the workplace. Peer-to-peer support is characterised by:
- Sharing of ideas on equal terms in pairs or small groups
- Conversations, often informal, about how to use technology in teaching and learning
- Collaborative exploration of new ideas and skills in the classroom – no appraisal
- Informal self-assessment and self-regulation
How do we develop this culture of collaborative learning in the workplace?
- Join the lesson's group discussion again.
- Share your thoughts on what you extracted from the video regarding establishing a culture of learning in the school.
- If you have experience of this in your own school, share your experience with the group.
- In a separate thread of discussion, discuss the question: “How can we strengthen our collaboration and communication ties between schools in our region?”
