Deepening Our Teaching Practice in PE Workshop (Dubai 2014)

A video glimpse into the deepening our teacher practice workshop at GCS

Over this past weekend, I was at Greenfield Community School in Dubai to lead a PE workshop focusing on inquiry and assessment in our subject area. The major themes over the weekend related to making student learning outcomes explicit, involving students in assessment design, making learning visual, and differentiated learning in PE. As well, we also focused on social media and the power of being a connected educator. Lots of new teachers now on Twitter and connected in our PE network. 

For me running the workshop was so much easier as I had such a wonderful group of switched on educators. 40 international school PE teachers from Oman, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Abu Dhabi, Uganda and different parts of Dubai attended the 2-day session. It was amazing to walk around and see all of the great things being discussed and shared in our Good Teaching Practice Sharing session on Day 2. 

Enjoy the video and photos below and a very special thank you to all the teachers for choosing to come to Dubai for the workshop. It was a pleasure working with all of you. I hope our paths cross again one day soon.
