This Creating Engaging Units of Work – Online course uses the Quality Teaching (QT) Model and backward design process to enhance current practices and ensure high quality pedagogy underpins all your lesson and assessment planning. Whether designing new units of work or refining existing programs, the workshop provides time to focus on the art of learning and assessment design.
To gain the most benefit, you should ideally have a good working knowledge of the QT Model. This may be through engagement in QT Rounds, other QT PD or working with the Model in your own classroom or assessment practice.
