Global Competencies in Action - Interdisciplinary Teaching and Learning (Year 3-10)

Description

This Showcase day is a celebration of Purposeful Pedagogies and authentic tasks, based around current social issues and Global Competencies in action.

Globally competent Educators and Students in the 21st Century have the knowledge and skills to:

• Investigate the World
• Recognise Perspectives
• Communicate Ideas
• Take Action

Inspired by the work of David Price (PBL), Kath Murdoch (Inquiry-based Learning), Ron Ritchhart (Visible Thinking), and Chris Harte (Design Thinking), participants from several AISWA schools will share purposeful teaching and learning outcomes via their individual PBL projects, which is the result of a 20-week Personal and Professional Action Learning program:

• Teachers and Students from Year 3 to Year 10 will co-present throughout the day.
• A detailed program will outline each project, including the Design Thinking process used, a Project-based Learning framework, and relevant links to the Global Goals, and the Curriculum.
• This day will also provide valuable feedback to project participants to reflect upon their own learning using the Critical and Creative Thinking continuum and AITSL Reflection tools

​

This PL event includes Morning Tea, Lunch, Interactive engagement with the participating teachers and students in the Marketplace area during the breaks, and handout materials from each school.
