APST 3: Plan for and implement effective teaching and learning Presented by Anthony Semann
Description
This webinar is designed to introduce early childhood educators to the fundamentals of writing pedagogical documentation. Pedagogical documentation is a powerful tool that captures children's learning experiences, supports reflective practice, and informs curriculum planning. This session will break down the process, from observing and recording children's activities to interpreting and presenting the documentation in a meaningful way. Participants will learn how to use documentation to make children's learning visible and to enhance their own teaching practices.
By the end of this webinar, participants will be able to:
1. Understand the purpose and importance of pedagogical documentation in early childhood education.
2. Identify key elements of effective documentation, including observation, interpretation, and reflection.
3. Develop skills to observe and record children's interactions and learning moments accurately and comprehensively.
4. Interpret and analyze documented observations to uncover insights into children's development and learning processes.
5. Create a piece of pedagogical documentation that effectively communicates children's experiences and learning outcomes.
