The Trainee Progress Tracker An Introduction
Reflection Opinion Thought View Belief Feeling Idea Impression Conclusion Assessment Comment Observation Remark Indication Display Demonstration Manifestation Expression Evidence Consideration Contemplation Deliberation Pondering Meditation Cogitation Introduction What is the Trainee Progress Tracker (TPT)? • A key element of the Professional Development Portfolio (PDP) • A document used by trainees to • identify and annotate the Teachers’ Standards they have met, and • the level they have achieved for those TS using the statements • reflect on their practice recording the date and location of the evidence, and • use those reflections to plan for further development of their practice
Reflection Opinion Thought View Belief Feeling Idea Impression Conclusion Assessment Comment Observation Remark Indication Display Demonstration Manifestation Expression Evidence Consideration Contemplation Deliberation Pondering Meditation Cogitation Feedback from Trainees (2013-14) • ‘It made me reflect on the Teachers’ Standards and articulate clearly what I am learning’ • ‘The ‘selling’ of it would have been far more effective had it included a modelling session on how and when it should be used’ • ‘I feel confident about using the trackers and used it to monitor my own development as a teacher. It was an extremely useful working document that allowed for a clear form of guidance when looking at areas that need to be developed’ • ‘I did not see the TPT as a support for my development but rather a commentary of achievements’
