Webinar: Developing the Observer Lens

Developing the Observer Lens

By the end of the session, participants will be able to:

  1. Recognise the main features of effective teaching and training practice.
  2. Focus attention on what learners are doing and achieving, not just on the trainer or teacher.
  3. Record clear, factual evidence of what they see and hear.

Observation only works best when you know what you’re looking for. This session introduces the essentials of high-quality observation for quality teams.

We’ll look at the key signs of effective teaching and training, such as learner engagement, progress and inclusivity and practise capturing objective evidence that can be used later for feedback and improvement.
