The third storm: Capability & Professional Development

Schools should have the capability of delivering a curriculum that provides the knowledge, capabilities and attitudes required by the 21st C learner. That educators and administrators will be provided with the necessary upskilling and resourcing to make this transformation successful.

This capability will include:

• ICT Clusters: The grouping of schools into ICT clusters can dramatically accelerate the use of appropriate technologies to improve teaching and learning which will, over time, morph into teaching and learning clusters once each cluster has gained the necessary technology skills. Teaching and learning clusters should be able to access online professional development readings each month and take part in cluster and national discussions on these themes (thinking, information literacy, action research, inquiry learning . . .)

• Digital Learning Objects: In a web based resourcing environment it is important that the resources that teachers present to students to interrogate, be robust and provide a high quality environment for students to work within. To that end the Department of Education/MoE need to work towards creating high quality Digital Learning Objects that will be made available to teachers.
  On a second front access an international federated search portal which presents to teachers a one-stop search of Digital Learning Objects is also essential.
