Teaching and learning experiences
Effective teaching begins by determining what students know and can do. From there teachers will identify what has to be taught next and proceed through a process of selecting and sequencing effective teaching strategies that will build on what students know and can do to allow them to achieve the syllabus outcomes and demonstrate their achievement.
There are a variety of documents supplied to all government schools that provide examples of effective teaching strategies. For example:
