Student Learning Profile (SLP) For Senior Secondary A key to future success…… Students telling their own “stories of learning”
What is SLP? It provides a fuller picture about my competencies and specialties. It is a summary presentation of what I have participated and achieved in terms of whole person development during my senior secondary years.
Under the NSS education, students should be encouraged to build up a profile to record and reflect on their learning experiences and achievements.
Implementation & design Building on existing Practice School-based design and process It would be school-based and the content may include brief information about: • Academic performance in school; • Other Learning Experiences; • Awards/ achievements gained outside schools; & • Student’s ‘self-account’ (e.g. impressive learning experiences, career goal setting & etc.) Basic & Concise information
SLP templates in WebSAMS SLP Module of WebSAMS (launched in early 2008)
Will SLP be considered in university admission? Universities will consider taking account in their selectiona broader range of information about student achievements in different areas and provide students the opportunity to demonstrate that they possess the range of competencies and personal qualities that they will need to benefit from undergraduate education. (HUCOM, 2006) We will continue to give broad support to the implementation of OLE and are ready to recognise SLPs as documents of good reference value. Practical arrangements will also be made to facilitate the use of the SLP as a reference document in the admission process from 2012. (HUCOM, 2008)
Students telling their own stories of learning: A multiple case study on the implementation of Student Learning Profile Your school needs a starting strategy - building on existing practices and strengths
Four Starting Strategies adopted by Seed Schools in the case study Educational value; high sustainability Student Ownership, but not learning-focused student led Self-regulated learning Student-led, recording-oriented approach Student-led, reflection-oriented approach * * * recording * * Teacher-driven, recording-oriented approach Teacher-driven, reflection-oriented approach reflection * * * * Turning experience into learning, but insufficient student ownership * Tendency to compliance mentality * teacher driven
