Advanced masterclass overview

With a growing number of schools embedding responsive teaching practices across the curriculum, the focus of this masterclass will shift from establishing core techniques to developing more nuanced aspects of responsive teaching. Plenty of techniques will be explored, including strategies for dealing with error, re-teaching and extending students who require challenge.

In this advanced masterclass, participants will examine video models, unpacking all the complexities of responding to student learning on the fly.

NOTE! Pre-requisite learning

This is an advanced masterclass. All participants must have completed either a Responsive Teaching Masterclass (open program) or a Responsive Teaching in Action program (in-school) with Bron.
