  1. Welcome to the sharing best practice group • Theme: Sharing our gifts

  2. What is the core purpose of the group? • Develop effective teaching and learning strategies to improve pupil learning. • Develop our own pedagogy • Talk about teaching and learning.

  3. The Core Focus Areas of the SBP Group. • Cooperative Learning • Independent Learning and Homework • Developing a culture of critique • Challenge and Differentiation • Practicalities • SBP File • Future Focus and Teacher Directory • Reflection and Actions

  4. How can we create an ethic of excellence through peer assessment?

  5. Peer assessment is often derided or done badly, by both students and teachers. For students it can be a poor substitute for teacher feedback.

  6. What is the purpose of peer critique ? • “Most discussions of assessment start in the wrong place. The most important assessment that goes on in a school isn’t done to students but goes on inside students. Every student walks around with a picture of what is acceptable, what is good enough. Each time he works on something he looks at it and assesses it. Is this good enough? Do I feel comfortable handing this in? Does it meet my standards? Changing assessment at this level should be the most important assessment goal of every school. How do we get inside students’ heads and turn up the knob that regulates quality and effort” • (P103, ‘An Ethic of Excellence’)

  7. Strategy 1: Gallery Critique • Stage 1 of the Gallery Critique Process • Use models of work first. • Part of every day learning

  8. Stage 2: Gallery Critique Step 1: Students display work: • An introduction, a paragraph, a conclusion or whatever is appropriate for your subject. Tip number the work it makes it easier to review. Step 2: Silent gallery walk (10 minutes) • Walk around the classroom, corridor, flexi area, silently observing all the displayed work. • Students to take notes as they go round the room Step 3: Review: What did you notice? (10 minutes) • Focus on the positive • What has impressed them? Why? Purpose: • Creates positive pressure for every child to produce better quality • Generating ideas • Creating strong models of work • Setting the tone for a whole class standard of quality. • Timing/Training/Language/Experts
