A Teacher's Gift

A Teacher's Gift to their students is curriculum design. When a teacher plans they are designing and creating learning that is inclusive for everyone.

Inclusive education involves supporting each student in belonging, participating, and accessing ongoing opportunities, being recognised and valued for the contribution that he or she makes, and flourishing.

The lifelong gift is the skill of learning how to learn, being curious and having the skills to explore, create and share.

The quote of the week from Twitter:

"I'm not just a teacher, I'm a learning expert - a design expert" from Rachel Brody @RLBrody

Thank you to everyone who contributed to the AT Series Week 5

The AT Series Week 6  focus is exploring tools that give students independence in their learning. Looking forward to learning new tools and ideas.

The infographic of the week from Twitter (Jackie Gerstein @jackiegertein)  is below - Universal Design for Learning an inclusive curriculum design tool.
