Last week on July 17th I started my postgraduate study.
Online sessions will be every Wednesdasy 6:30-8pm and every second Monday 6:30-7pm (tutorial).
It's been great for networking so far. I have had some homework - to choose an innovation article from 2012-2023 Open University UK..
I chose one on Social Justice Pedagogy and created a five minute video summarising it and saying why I found it interesting.

Today at staff meeting we reviewed as a team how we currently incorporate Te Reo in our programmes.
From that we have set a SMART goal each.
My goal is to use more classroom commands with my class. One per week to focus on.
I am hoping we can do this as a team.
