TOOLWISE

 

Model Learning for Teachers Programme 

Module 1:     MapWise — one day course
Module 2:     ToolWise — one day course

We recommend the courses are completed in order, though either course is of immense value as a standalone day.

 

Module 2 - Toolwise
Who is it for? 

Any individual or organisation, whether school or local authority who is looking to improve standards of learning and teaching for their classroom practitioners. We lead this training to:

  • Experienced teachers
  • NQT’s
  • AST’s
  • Mentors
  • Learning assistants

Ideally, those practitioners who have attended the first module, Mapwise, and are looking to extend use of visual tools even further.

 

What is it about? 

Toolwise is the second module in our Model Learning for teachers program. The day builds powerfully on the learning’s and skills gained in the first module.
Toolwise introduces a wider range of visual tools to further enhance classroom strategies and extends teachers’ capacity to help learners organise their thoughts for successful learning.

What will I get out of it? 

Further insights into how using a range of 9 visual tools within a proven system can enhance learning and teaching. You’ll know exactly where and when to use them!
You will learn how to use visual tools at each stage of the learning process e.g. planning, connecting to prior learning, direct interactive teaching, pupil led learning, reviewing learning
You will learn how to use the visual tools in unique sequences designed to exponentially enhance their value and effect.
You will see how, through pervasive and systematic use visual tools further enhance current best practice in areas such as assessment, collaborative learning and thinking skills.

Some educators make the mistake of believing that using visual tools is another initiative to implement. They are simply wrong. When used pervasively and effectively visual tools remain the single and most effective means to improving all aspects of teaching and learning. Click here to read more.
