A Professional Learning Day

Wednesday 16th September

Cognitive Coaching(SM) for Educational Leaders.

Cognitive Coaching(SM) was developed as a means to support teachers with their teaching. It is based upon the premise that teaching is a professional act and Coaches within schools support teachers to become more resourceful in their teaching. Many schools have employed coaches to work with their community and some education systems are employing coaches to support teachers to improve teaching and learning across their contexts.

Successful schools work continually to develop a culture of student, teacher and leadership learning success. Cognitive Coaching(sm) is integral to this.

Participation in this intensive workshop will equip you and/or members of your team with a set of strategies, a way of thinking and a way of working that invites self and others to shape and reshape their thinking and problem solving capacities to achieve learning success.

Dr Julianne Lynch, a Senior Lecturer at Deakin University, is a member of the Gender and Information Technology (GaIT) 1 national project research team.

In this ANSN Snapshot from Research, Dr Lynch refers to findings from the GaIT study, to draw our attention to:

• the declining student interest in studying Information Technology (IT) subjects;
• the persistent gender gap in enrolments in IT subjects at school and university; and
• issues related to school IT education that might contribute to the gender gap and to the more general decline in participation in this area of study.
