What I can do
The Five Pillars of the Teaching and Learning approach, as outlined in the provided document, focus on enhancing effective teaching and supporting students' learning and self-regulation. Here are the pillars:
1. **Clarity of Learning Intentions**: Teachers clearly share with students what they are learning in their lessons and why. This includes sharing and reviewing subject learning journeys【4:0†source】.
2. **Re-cap and Recall**: Regularly revisiting prior learning to ensure students remember key information from previous lessons【4:8†source】.
3. **New Information**: Introducing and modeling new learning in lessons that are linked to the topic question shared with students at the start. Various activities are designed to develop their new understanding【4:8†source】.
4. **Practice**: Providing regular opportunities during the lesson to practice, apply, and consolidate understanding. This could involve activities like answering exam questions, solving problems, writing essays, or performing a skill in practical subjects【4:8†source】.
5. **Feedback**: Delivering regular, timely feedback both during lessons and through written forms. This feedback focuses on student performance, addressing misconceptions, and offering guidance for further development. Students engage with all feedback during dedicated Student Response Time (SRT) activities【4:8†source】.
These elements are believed to underpin effective teaching and learning, supporting both teachers in their delivery and students in their engagement and understanding.
