Professional Practice Issue 8 'Engaging Teachers'

Please find below a link to Issue 8 of Professional Practice: ‘Engaging teachers’. It features the work of teacher and acclaimed presenter of professional development Glen Pearsall, with his practical hints on how to create and foster more effective and engaging classrooms. Re-thinking classroom dynamics is the focus of an article on Professor Ramon Lewis’ Developmental Approach to classroom behavior, while the feature on Hawkesdale P12 College and their recent virtual placement pilot suggests a re-think of the classroom itself.

This issue also focuses on the development of the Professional Standards for Accomplished Teaching of School Geography. Other news updates include the release of the National Professional Standards for teachers, and congratulations to teachers who have recently received awards and scholarships.
