Initial Assessment • Starting point • Used to identify learners needs, goals and desires • Informs planning • Allows you to respond to learning needs In small groups look through the examples of initial assessment pro-formas. Discuss how you would adapt them for your groups.

What do you think? Debate Paper light V Paper
Meaningful use of recordings • To summarise: • Record an individual’s progress & achievement • The recordings capture a learning objective from your lesson plan or scheme of work • Caption images (or use image file names) to identify the learning objective & date. • Cross-reference or link to recordings from other paperwork: eg ILPs. Store files with centre managers. • Written permission: needed if the recording is to be published / used in the public domain.
Schemes of work • Making links to your SOW • What assessments would you use in your micro teach?
Recap – and next session • Learning outcomes – Did we? Was anything missed? How will you use this? • T7 • What next?
