  1. Hi, my name is unique lessons and I will be presenting to you my final action plan
  2. Using the five DS of appreciative anchoring
  3. for my university course, advanced teaching strategies.
  4. So let's get into it.
  5. My action plan will be built on
  6. PBL
  7. So
  8. what is PBL once you can actually already see here,
  9. it stands for project based learning.
  10. So PBL is becoming more and more important and well known in the education sector.
  11. Um and very recently,
  12. me as a teacher and an educator have been introduced to project based learning
  13. and it has inspired me a lot. So that's why I thought
  14. It would be a great idea to do some research on this and
  15. introduce and present to you um this 5D plan that I have made.
  16. So
  17. basically on my screen here you can see some
  18. elements that relate to project based learning students,
  19. voice and choice inquiry reflection.
  20. Um
  21. I won't go over all of them, but summarized
  22. project based learning stands for a form of learning where students become the
  23. voice and choice choice where students will link their knowledge to a project
  24. that has an effect on society that is useful
  25. to the community or the society that they live.
  26. So they're actually learning in school and applying that knowledge
  27. instantly
  28. um
  29. through a project to a real world situations.
  30. So that is project based learning. So
  31. if I had the chance to facilitate this plan, so if I could dream,
  32. I would
  33. really like the following outcomes to happen.
  34. My biggest goal of all would be to have a full PBL school.
  35. So that means a school that is fully equipped to teach 100
  36. PBL
  37. and not only looking at like the curriculum,
  38. but
  39. the structure of the school, like how are the classrooms build?
  40. Um do the classrooms actually create an environment where
  41. students can replicate like a real world situation?
  42. Um so
  43. The biggest dream of all, would we have a complete school, 100% fully equipped
  44. To teach 100% project based learning.
  45. So then another dream would be to have an interdisciplinary curriculum,
  46. so a curriculum that is completely interdisciplinary,
  47. so
  48. That all teachers and all subjects kind of work together in one big project
  49. And the final dream outcome would be
  50. through these projects to create global citizens,
  51. like preparing students to become complete
  52. 21st century global citizens that are ready
  53. for society that are ready for the real world when they leave school.
  54. So that's basically my dream outcome.
  55. So how would this design looks like who would I need in my design?
  56. Well, to create a schoolwide PBL, you would need to have a timeline,
  57. you need to sit down with the stakeholders, with teachers,
  58. with schooling as parents,
  59. all of them
  60. to come to a final plan. So who needs to be involved?
  61. School leaders, teachers, students parents and stakeholders.
  62. So what is expected from school leaders?
  63. The word says that here, I expect leadership.
  64. So leadership from school leaders in a sense that they are the ones that
  65. are going to explain are going to lead project based
  66. learning to be enrolled or implemented in the school environment.
  67. So in my opinion, those people, those school leaders are very important and
  68. rolling it up
  69. then
  70. what is expected from teachers.
  71. So teachers need to get good professional development and you need to be
  72. willing to be open to this professional development that in this case,
  73. school leaders or people are already known with project is learning give them
  74. so because teach as teachers,
  75. we are used like to work instructed based the traditional way we are doing,
  76. we are explaining, but we need to get like um some lessons,
  77. some learnings on how can we be the facilitator.
  78. So a professional development would be really important here
  79. for teachers.
  80. Um what is expected from students.
  81. So more than ever, like in the traditional approach,
  82. the teacher is doing the work is instructing you and the students do what is asked,
  83. but now
  84. it's kind of the other way around the teacher will be become the
  85. facilitator and it's the students that really need to think and generate ideas.
  86. Okay, they, they are the ones that
  87. I need to speak student voice and choice. The thing I mentioned earlier.
  88. Um so I need the students to be really engaged
  89. and really think about what we are doing here.
  90. Why are we doing this and related to a real world example
  91. then parents as well. So parents also can support a school by helping
  92. creating audiences. Maybe some of the parents are experts in a certain area,
  93. maybe the students eventually can present, maybe a parent is an architect,
  94. they can set something up so that the students learn about architecture
  95. in real world
  96. situation.
  97. So most of all parents need there to
  98. be supporting their kids and then reaching the project
  99. and eventually, stakeholders, stakeholders are also really important,
  100. I think because they need to be open minded if the head
  101. of school or the owner of the school is not open to
  102. investing some of the money in creating these
  103. areas and creating field trips for students to
  104. to experience there,
  105. Basically their curriculum in the real world. It won't fully 100% work.
  106. So stakeholders are also really important.
  107. So then
  108. eventually
  109. destiny and deliver well, I don't know like what the
  110. actual results will be because I haven't implemented yet. But
  111. the most enjoyable thing about implementing this plan would be,
  112. we are starting from scratch.
  113. All right, all the school leaders, the teachers, the parents and students,
  114. we are all exposed to something new because
  115. we're so used to this traditional approach.
  116. So we are actually the builders, the creators of this PBL school.
  117. So I think that is really enjoyment of everyone is going to have a part in this
  118. in this foundation basically that will eventually set the tone for creating these
  119. global citizens that are ready and are fully equipped for the real world.
  120. The society that they are living in.
  121. The most challenging thing about implementing this plan is,
  122. well, everyone is going to have a role, but in the team,
  123. You need all people engaged. We cannot run.
  124. We cannot implement this plan if one of the stakeholders or or students or parents,
  125. teachers, school leaders are not in on this 100%.
  126. So that would be a challenge implementing this plan.
  127. So that was quickly um,
  128. My dream plan, using the five DS of appreciably
  129. increase.
  130. Um
  131. I hope you enjoyed it. I hope you enjoyed my, my
  132. potential plan and who knows we can
  133. do this and enroll this in the future.
  134. Thank you very much.
