Wiliam & Leahy's Five Formative Assessment Strategies in Action - Kate Jones - Bog - Hachette Learning - Plusbog.dk

Written under the guidance and with the support of Dylan Wiliam, Kate Jones writes about five formative assessment strategies in action in the classroom, with a foreword from Professor John Hattie. Building on the highly successful work of Wiliam and Siobhan Leahy, ideas are shared and misconceptions with formative assessment are addressed with lots of practical advice. Formative assessment in action focuses on five evidence-informed strategies that the teacher can use to support their learners to make progress. Formative assessment can help both the teacher and student understand what needs to be learned and how this can be achieved. During the learning process, formative assessment can identify students'' progress as well as highlighting gaps in their knowledge and understanding, therefore giving the teacher useful insight as to what feedback and instruction can be provided to continue to move learners forward. Formative assessment takes place during the learning process. It continually informs the teacher and student as to how learning can move forward as it is happening. This is different to summative assessment, which focuses on the evaluation of student learning at the end of the process. There''s a range of case studies from different subjects and key stages to show how formative assessment can be embedded across a curriculum successfully.

School leadership is the best job in the world, despite being frustrating, exhausting and at times utterly bamboozling. We are required to change our focus frequently and immediately, planning for the next five years one minute, dealing with the next five seconds the next. We manage multi-million-pound budgets and we pick up crisp packets. We live a life of constant contrasts, meeting hurtling deadlines, solving inscrutable riddles, experiencing profound joy and also heartbreaking disappointment. From time to time, we look up from our work and realise how very privileged we are to work in such an important, rewarding, valuable role. The A-Z of Secondary Leadership considers how we approach leadership in secondary schools, from the moment of arrival in a new post to the exploration of further possibilities. It covers creating a culture, recruiting and retaining the best staff, encouraging cognitive diversity, working with stakeholders, leading in the community and, perhaps most importantly, how to look after yourself as you take on a very challenging role. Combining broad knowledge of the education system with a clear-headed assessment of the challenges faced by schools and some practical tips for successful leadership, this book is essential reading for aspiring, recently appointed and more experienced secondary school leaders. It is filled with pragmatism, humour, energy and advice. Taking a detailed yet down-to-earth approach to leadership theory and practice, Andy Hunter considers the various demands placed upon secondary school leaders and shares the insights and experiences that he has gained on his journey from supply teacher to executive head.

High Challenge, Low Threat: How the Best Leaders Find the Balance - Mary Myatt - Bog - Hachette Learning - Plusbog.dk

This is a book about the things that wise leaders do. It is informed through thousands of conversations with leaders and argues that these leaders do not shy away from the tough stuff. It points to the conditions which these leaders create to allow colleagues to engage with difficult issues enthusiastically and wholeheartedly. It is taken from observations of leaders at work in a variety of settings. While these are mostly schools, these observations are checked against what is happening in wider leadership and management thinking. This book makes the case that any leadership role is concerned primarily with the relationships between individuals. It is the quality of these, whatever the size of the organisation, which make the difference between organisations which thrive, and those which stagnate. This is not to argue for soft, easy and comfortable options. Instead it considers how top leaders manage to walk the line between the impossible and the possible, between the undoable and the doable and to create conditions for productive work which transcend the difficulties which come towards us every day. Instead of dodging them, they embrace them.And by navigating high challenge, low threat, they show how others how to do the same.

How To Succeed in Differentiation: The Finnish Approach - Jerker Polso - Bog - Hachette Learning - Plusbog.dk

Differentiation is an approach to education in which every student''s individuality and special needs are taken into account. Practical and accessible, HOW TO SUCCEED IN DIFFERENTIATION reveals the approach taken in the high-achieving Finnish education system, where the national curriculum obligates all teachers to differentiate their teaching from the get-go. The book is divided into four parts. Part I explains the background of Finnish education and differentiation in the Finnish context. Part II investigates the theoretical basis for differentiation and strives to offer new perspectives for the most common challenges of differentiation. In addition, Part II introduces the reader to the imaginary example students, whose problems are attempted to be solved later in the book. In Part III, differentiation is approached through the five-dimensional model of differentiation, which the authors have created and which, in their opinion, covers the most central areas of teaching, in which differentiation should be acknowledged. In Part IV, differentiation is exemplified in language and literature, mathematics and foreign languages.
