Harvesting the future of the primary sector
24 April 2024
Dig into the world of agricultural and horticultural education with insights from teachers who are empowering students to pursue careers.
A series of 128 workshops and comprehensive online resources to support English-medium teachers in making valid and reliable Overall Teacher Judgments (OTJs) will be available through the Consortium for Professional Learning (CPL) in 2014.
New Zealand’s assessment for learning approach sees teachers making OTJs informed by a variety of assessment evidence, and so it is important for students that these judgments are consistent; both between teachers and between schools.
The OTJ/moderation workshops will be held across all regions through 2014, and will cover a number of topics relevant to helping teachers make accurate and consistent judgments, including:
Workshops to assist teachers in the Māori medium using Ngā Whanaketanga Rumaki Māori (NWRM) when making OTJs will continue to be available, concurrent to the new English-medium workshop series.
For those unable to attend the CPL workshops, there will be an opportunity to register on the CPL website www.cpl.org.nz
from 1 March 2014 for a one-hour webinar as well as comprehensive online support.
The workshops/online support will be held in two series, allowing schools flexibility in attending either early or late in the school year:
Please see below for the dates and locations of the workshops in each region and please contact CPL or your local Ministry office for further information.
