This whole-staff training demonstrates how taking learning out of the text book is an effective and necessary part of today’s education. The challenge utilises experiential learning as a professional development tool for improving teaching and learning.

Both teaching and support staff are divided into equal teams allowing for different talents and areas of expertise. Each team receives a remit for the challenge based on a topic related to UAE life and culture. The remit sets out a number of compulsory and optional tasks the team must complete. The team can organize themselves in any way they wish to complete the tasks, however a number of visits are made to each group and points are awarded for teamwork and leadership.

In the workshop of two consecutive days, the participants will:

• Develop teamwork across a whole staff and improve cohesiveness and understanding for the talents of others
• Experience how enjoyable learning can be outside a textbook and understand how this can be used to improve teaching and learning
• Increase knowledge and understanding of many aspects of UAE life and culture; woven into the school curriculum
• Develop their ability to plan quality lessons with a range of assessment opportunities

We also offer a half day workshop on how to run the Step Ahead Challenge with your students as a tool to develop independent learning and problem solving skills.

Course Details

Using groups to help engage and involve students in their learning is an essential part of active learning. Unless specifically planned, it can also present opportunities for students to be off task and allow one or two people to do the work while the others are there in body only. This workshop will demonstrate how to gain the most from group work while eliminating the possible negative effects.

During the training the participants will :

• Understand why and how group work can improve classroom dynamics and enhance student learning at all levels in a school
• Explore the concept of group dynamics and roles to ensure all members  are equally involved
• Understand the link between the success of group work and the clarity of the group task
• Plan and deliver a small group task utilizing learning from the workshop

Course Details

The bell goes and students wait to start the lesson. On average, there is an 8 minute gap between the end of one lesson and the actual start of the following lesson, whether staff move and students remain in the same room or vice versa (observed during visits across a wide variety of schools). This workshop will demonstrate how to eliminate ‘wasted’ time at the beginning of each lesson.

During the workshop the participants will :

• Learn about the importance of the ‘Elevator Pitch’
• See practical examples of ‘starters’ to ensure learners are engaged in thinking from the first moment
• Understand how a carefully crafted ‘starter’ can provide a powerful link to new learning
• Work with others to create a ‘bank’ of generic lesson starters suitable for any subject

Course Details

This workshop is designed to help schools understand why parental contact is so important and how systems can assess the quality and effectiveness of current practice.

• Understand why parents are partners when educating a child
• Learn about the power of community and networks
• Recognize how to identify different types of parents from the permissive to the authoritarian

This workshop will demonstrate how to turn textbook information into a problem-solving activity incorporating teamwork, independent learning and opportunities for assessment at all levels. For schools that are very keen to embed the culture of Enterprise and Active Learning, we can offer a practical session involving 50 - 80 students linking a number of cross-curricular areas including the environment, performing arts, health education, business development and cultural awareness. These sessions can be a half or full day workshop, depending on need and age of students. Suitable for Grades 7 - 11 and all curricula.

In the workshop the participants will :

• Understand why enquiry-based learning is deeper and lasts longer
• Learn the basic components of enquiry-based learning
• Explore the application of higher level thinking skills
• Master the design of problem solving tasks that bring school textbooks alive

Course Details

This workshop fits very neatly with ‘Teaching Beyond the Textbook: problem solving and enquiry-based learning.’ As teachers, we are primarily concerned with providing a precise and often limited body of knowledge. How much time do we spend teaching students the skills they will need to access information to cement their own understanding or follow up on areas of interest? This workshop will demonstrate how independent learning can be part of every classroom.

In this workshop the candidates will :

• Explore the concept of independent learning
• Understand why independent learning is required in the context of a rapidly changing world
• Learn the traits of successful independent learners
• Be shown strategies for facilitating independent learning in individuals and groups of students
• Devise a series of lessons to apply workshop learning

Effective teaching is edifying teaching, and people are more likely to be edified when they participate in learning. Asking good questions and directing effective discussions are primary ways to encourage that participation. This workshop provides training for teachers in facilitating thinking through questioning.

In this program the participants will :

• Explore the power of ‘open’ questions
• Learn what makes a question ‘smart’
• Practise asking questions that do not lead to ‘roadblocks’ in the classroom
• Learn the usefulness of re-direction to gain the attention of the whole class
• Learn how to write assessment questions that allow students to demonstrate how much they know rather than what has been forgotten

Course Details

Disaffection is often a rational response on the part of students to particular conditions in classrooms rather than simply a general disposition to deviate from acceptable norms of behaviour. This workshop will give teachers a ‘toolkit’ to help student disaffection in their classroom.

Participants will :

• Learn to recognise some of the covert behaviours that indicate student disaffection
• Understand why rewards and punishments are only temporary reprieves
• Develop a range of strategies to counter disaffection in particular classroom situations
• Understand how Assessment for Learning can contribute to a student’s perception of success

Course Details

When evaluating lessons there are a number of variables that need to be considered: the purpose of the observation, the intended audience for feedback, time available and the relationship between the observer and the teacher. Does one focus on a particular aspect or observe all aspects of the lesson? What makes some lessons more effective than others? Are all taught in this workshop.

Participants will :

• Discuss the features that contribute to the delivery of an excellent lesson
• Practise recognising evidence these features are present in a lesson
• Learn to make judgements on less tangible areas observed during lessons
• Understand the value of ‘triangulating’ evidence from observations when making judgments
• Practise giving feedback in a variety of situations
• Learn how to set targets for improvement in teaching that have the greatest impact on student outcomes

Course Details

Effective learning rarely happens by chance. Teachers must use a number of skills from their considerable learning armoury. These include: planning, recording, challenging, demonstrating, securing, managing, adapting, explaining, discussing, interrogating, reviewing, evaluating, modifying, establishing and questioning. They cannot do that without planning.

This workshop uses a basic lesson planning model and gives teachers practical ideas for devising interesting, effective lessons. This workshop can be extended to include whole and half-day sessions for specific departments on planning a series of lessons using active learning approaches and available resources, and paired observation of lessons in action with coaching and feedback.

Participants will :

• Use the basic 3-part planning model to devise their own lessons
• Learn how to use a variety of lesson starters to engage students immediately and ensure every minute of lesson time is productive
• Explore the concept of learning styles and their application in the classroom
• Understand the importance of differentiation in meeting the needs of all learners
• Explore techniques for stopping activities efficiently when moving from one part of a lesson to another
• Learn how to end lessons with effective plenaries that assess student learning

Course Details

The most effective professional development is often found within schools. There are few schools that do not have excellent practitioners. However, it can feel really daunting standing up in front of others as the 'expert'. People expect a lot when they go on a course, and a 'run of the mill' training puts people to sleep or fails to energise trainees so desired changes don’t happen.

This course is for those who want to learn how to engage, enliven, inspire and motivate those they present to, giving them simple usable skills and a suite of possible activities for their own workshops. 

Participants will : 

• Learn to adapt their style and material to suit the situation
• Acquire some strategies for working with difficult situations and people
• Understand the importance of prior knowledge when planning a workshop
• Learn how to plan a well-crafted and well-balanced workshop that caters for different learning styles in the audience whilst meeting people's needs and expectations
• Make learning and development exciting and creative
• Make a short presentation to other delegates using the skills and techniques acquired during the course
• Learn how to craft a quality course evaluation tool

In the absence of a carefully structured system of appraisal, people tend to judge the work performance of others, including subordinates, naturally, informally and arbitrarily. But this can create serious motivational, ethical and legal problems in the workplace. Without a structured appraisal system, there is little chance of ensuring that the judgments made will be lawful, fair, defensible and accurate. This workshop examines a school’s particular context and assists Senior managers in setting up a realistic, easily manageable performance management system.

Workshop contents :

• School owners on devising a specific principal or head teacher performance management plan
• Heads of administration/Office staff on tailoring the principles of performance management to a business setting
• Learn how a performance management system can assist a school to deliver its objectives and maintain a continuous pattern of improvement

Program contents :

• Explore the power of display
• Learn how displays of subject-specific vocabulary can be used in myriad ways during a lesson
• Undertake a practical task to transform a previously dull classroom into a vibrant learning space
