This week's workshop was helpful in terms of learning how to collaborate with peers in a respectful manner in order to improve ourl teaching skills and strategies. A different perspective can see aspects you can improve on that you weren't even aware of. #SI401
I think this visual is a good representation of how Teacher Leadership is a continuous process that is always changing based on Teacher's reflections and children's needs. #S1401
I think this image shows how by reflecting on our plans in groups today in our #si401 module helped fill in some gaps in our individual plans together. Making the content more accessible for all learners in the classroom.
Inclusive education is a multi-faceted concept. After researching the topic further, I thought I would share this visual which offers a definition of inclusion. It is straightforward but reminds us of our responsibilities as educators. #si401

(2/2) to the presentations. It was good practice in critiquing fairly and positively for example using two stairs and a wish. In future, I will remember this when evaluating my own lessons or my future school’s inclusive policies and practices . #SI401
I thought yesterday’s workshop was really helpful as it gave us practical experience of critiquing a presentation/lesson using the six facets of inclusion, it was challenging critiquing our peer’s presentations when we were aware of how much work they put in (1/2) #SI401
True leadership for inclusion demonstrated by my #si401 classmates who presented presentations on articles in the area of special & inclusive education to our year group today.
Well done @OGara_Samantha, @EldNiamh, @kirsty_lb and @sarahmc1996, @MurrayAiveen, @RobynKenny5.
(2/2) "some progress made", "good progress made", "good practice in schools". This allowed the school to assess their strengths and then decide on areas where they can improve - using the Framework. #SI401
I really liked the qualitative feedback used in the Inclusive Education Framework, I thought by using verbal non-standardized forms of feedback, the schools were able to more accurately assess their progress in implementing the framework, such as "getting there" "(1/2) #SI401
Instigating change within a school runs deeper than just introducing new strategies. In order for change to happen and be sustainable there needs to be a shift in not only our practice but also how we think and what we value. Joe described this as 'reculturing' #SI401
@siuntisdall That is a great picture Siun! It clearly shows the equality isn't providing for everyone the exact same way - instead it is about providing for people based on need so everyone is on more equal footing! #SI401
@sineadmcnulty4 I thought that was a great quote from the lecture too @sineadmcnulty4 and the proverb you suggested really demonstrates the point! #SI401
