#ukedchat as member of SLT I invite teachers to make observations

of me every week. No formal judgement but helps to inspire/share

practice

shaun_allison 20:03

#ukedchat CPD should be varied, flexible, relevant, personalised,

sustainable and in context - this is what we do:

Year 5 NQT. I feel the most important aspect of CPD is to get a

varied experience of practice within our own and other schools

things that work/don't, get fresh perspective & discuss on the

Best CPD when children stayed behind to demonstrate different

software to staff. They were gr8 and offered ongoing support

#ukedchat

ianaddison 20:06

@thought_weavers when do they have time to observe you? In

their ppa? #ukedchat


RT @ryanhorne0076: "Big idea" chats are good, but sometimes

specific hand-on lesson examples are best to take back to your

class. #ukedchat

aknill 20:06

#ukedchat I see CPD as an ongoing long term process (25 years into

my career) does it have to identify a short term goal to be valid!

ShaunRenton 20:06

#ukedchat social media like this helps expand ideas which can then

be shared with your team who may not have twitter

#ukedchat good cpd=focused and not too ambitious. It's got to be

generic and germane to all, tricky business

ryanhorne0076 20:09

How about ongoing digital CPD discussions well after the face2face

session? Use social media to continue the CPD over time.
