This is really just to share a post from Edna Sackson, whose blog, What Ed Said, I have been following for some time. However, it turns out she is a member of the learning community taking the course Coaching Teachers (it's a small world especially the virtual one). Having talked in one of my recent posts about having guiding principles that articulate common beliefs about teaching and learning in order to frame and lead conversations, I was reminded of one of her posts: Learning Principles. As she says 'Often our practice doesn’t really reflect what we say we believe', so a set of clearly articulated principles draws us back to our beliefs and encourages us to be accountable to what we say we believe, as well as providing a common language and a framework within which to discuss practice. Thank you Edna!

AuthorI'm an educator driven by the desire to see people realise their potential by gaining the tools they need to be successful. I love being part of a community of learners for whom there is always more to be known and understood. For me, learning and teaching is cognitive, social and emotional and takes the whole self.
