Professor Jacqui D’Warte

TQI accredited

This workshop draws from Jacqui’s recent research in Sydney primary and secondary classrooms where teachers and students become co-researchers in exploring students’ language and literacy experiences inside and outside of school. Jacqui will demonstrate how to design effective teaching and learning activities that acknowledge student knowledges and skills, and how this knowledge can be applied to assessing, planning and structuring authentic and engaging learning sequences and units of work that promote outcomes across the curriculum.
