Big ideas = big impact! We loved collaborating with the wonderful Wyndham Tech School last week as our teaching excellence team immersed themselves in design thinking, generative AI and team building. The day was filled with innovation, curiosity and hands on experience.
PD days at Wyndham Tech School are not your average PD 🤩 With AI Drones, Podcasting with AI, and LEGO Serious Play, the 25 educators from Victorian Academy of Teaching and Leadership's Teaching Excellence Division we hosted this week fully immersed themselves in our innovative pedagogies, tech-driven learning environments, and industry-driven curriculum 🚀 Through our fun, hands-on workshops, and a presentation of our education model, we challenged traditional thinking and explored teacher identity and problems of practice. These educators will go on to teach over 510+ teachers this year, meaning the strategies and insights gained here will ripple across classrooms all over VIC! 🌏 Thank you VATL for spending the day with us! It’s collaborations like these that enable us to shape the future of education together 🙌
