in word format with numbering

We began by interpreting the Authentic Learning Framework in terms of these Guiding Principles and discussed how particular elements of the framework (ALF) represented these Principles.

Next we analysed some different frameworks that are being used currently at other schools and looked at some of the common elements they all share such as Thinking Tools and Outcomes.

The next activity was to develop a rubric that we could all use when documenting our curriculum. We used a backward design approach for this and looked at the numbered Guiding Principles document to try and group these into Criteria. Then each group reflected on how they had grouped their criteria together. Their contributions are below:

As a final task we discussed innovative ways that we could document our curriculum and came up with the following:

1. We could use Inspiration documents and in particular the ALF as a guide as a more visual representation.
2. We could also use Wiki’s or Blogs that can be accessed from anywhere that can have ‘pieces to camera’ embedded. We can also link other file types to these more effectively e.g. pdf’s etc.
3. Include ‘pieces to camera’ as they are more informative.
