Welcome!
The purpose of this online portfolio is to introduce myself and to inform you of my teaching experiences in the context of the AISTL Teacher Standards.
Under 'Home' you can access 'Educational Quotes' which is a collection of quotes that are relevant to teaching in accordance to my teaching and learning philosophy. In 'About Me' you can learn how my past and recent experiences have influenced my decision to train as a teacher as well as my learning and teaching philosophy. I have also included information about the school in which I was placed for my internship entitled 'School Context'. 'Teaching Reflections' is a compilation of journal entries focusing on learning completed at university and teaching experiences. Lastly, under 'Australian Professional Standards for Teachers' I have included my proficiencies, experiences and understanding of each standard.
The Standards consist of Professional Knowledge - Know students and how they learn, know the content and how to teach it, Professional Practice - Plan for and implement effective teaching and learning, Create and maintain supportive and safe learning environments, Assess, provide feedback and report on student learning and finally Professional Engagement - Engage in professional learning, Engage professionally with colleagues, parents/carers and the community.
