The focus of the these teacher-training resources is simple: metacognitive teaching strategies, metacognition & self-regulated learning.
 
These easy to use resources are perfect for Continued Professional Development (CPD) and are designed for in-house training, inset days and general teacher education. As with our other resources, the training materials are aimed at teaching professionals working with students aged 11-16 though they are also useful for those teaching students in further education.
 
The full CPD resource contains eight CPD training sessions:
 
An Introduction to Metacognition & Self-Regulated Learning
Teaching Activities & Strategies for Metacognition & Self-Regulated Learning
Using Debates & Discussions for Metacognition & Self-Regulated Learning 
Subject-Specific & Departmental Metacognitive Strategies
Growth Mindset, Self-Regulated Learning & Boosting Brain Power
Skills for Learning, Metacognition & Self-Regulation
Long-Term Strategies for Metacognition & Self-Regulation
Metacognition & DIRT - Dedicated Improvement & Reflection Time
 
Each session is designed to last for at least 2 hours: we wanted to include more than enough for 2 hour teacher training sessions so that those delivering the lessons can ‘cut their cloth accordingly’ and adapt resources and timings according to their will. Ideally you should assign different teachers to deliver the different sessions so as to make the training more immersive, interactive, and varied.
 
Each session includes a session-plan (akin to a lesson-plan) which provides a rough guide to timings and activities for the session leader. We advise delivering the sessions in the order presented above.
 
This is a comprehensive training pack and includes everything you need for a 3-4 day inset. Please note: unlike the enhanced edition, this download does not include additional teaching resources and only includes the teacher-training materials.
