Let's get started!

This blog is a way for our Project Team A to post and discuss the work we are doing for Professional Development in the area of Quality Teaching -specifically looking at differentiation. I think there will be a lot of overlap with the other Projects our staff are involved in and that's great.
After all, aren't we all simply working towards the same ultimate outcome....to improve student outcomes in their learning?

For myself, I'm struggling with what specifically I want to achieve. Working so closely with technology, and aware of it's possibilities in education at this time, I want our technology based lessons to be more relevant to individual students...and yet authentically addressing syllabus outcomes that the class are exploring.
Presently I'm still in the air...How do I do this? What direction do I take?

I watched a great video from Greg Whitby's 'Bluyonder' blog.

I put it on HFSconversations-it is worth a look...
I liked the way the groups in the class went in their own directions & used technology to both assist their discussions/ learning...and then it helped them to 'show' or present their learnings at the end. I'm really swayed towards this type of model....
What does the team think?
