Inquiry 2024- Question1 &2

(1) Our CoL teachers met with the Senior Leadership Team(SLT) to discuss our CoL Inquiry. 

As I mentioned in the previous post, my focus is the year 13 Statistics class. 

The SLT responded positively to my inquiry. I designed this inquiry with the support of 

Dr Janni, who has extensive experience in the tertiary sector.


Throughout my years of experience in education, I have witnessed the critical 

importance of a smooth transition for college students into tertiary studies. 

Readiness to study at the tertiary level, and post-secondary school,  influences 

their coping with tertiary institutions' new culture and study approaches. 

I am strongly motivated to support my students’ transition into tertiary studies 

to be as smooth and empowering as possible.

To support the student to be able to make a smooth transition from school 

learning to tertiary studies, I will focus on the:

  1. Flipped Classroom model to promote independent learning and instill 

the importance of learning readiness through prior knowledge.

  1. Rewindable learning offers students opportunities to revise and catch up 

with missed or poorly understood in-class learning.

  1. Intensive teaching and learning sessions in class that thread prior

 learning to face-to-face tutorial-style teaching.

The Flipped Classroom involves pre-study for the next day’s lessons. With my students,

 the Flipped Classroom approach will focus on pre-reading tasks and assignments related

 to the new learning, viewing some input materials about the teaching and focus to come,

 and testing out independently how much they can do without input from me. 

Rewindable learning is focused on recycling and retrieving to consolidate new learning.

 Class lessons will be recorded and made available ubiquitously - anywhere, anytime.

 Further online consolidating lessons and learning will be made available by providing 

students with several links that offer clear explanations and working examples. 

Classroom tutorials are deep dives led by the teacher where new learning is carefully 

scaffolded and learners actively interact with teacher input and supportively try out examples. 

In my classroom, it will be a time when mathematical discourse is elevated and students 

are given the confidence and space to voice their applied learning - with their peers and 

with the teacher. 

Question 2- I have been gathering information, scanning about learner as well as working on

planning to upgrade myself. Link
