Staff at East Loddon P–12 College (Vic), Parafield Gardens High School (SA), Craigmore High School (SA), Reece High School (Tas) and Como Secondary College (WA) discuss how they use timetabling and intensity of intervention to support an MTSS framework aligned with AERO’s guidance.

Implementation checklists are a list of practical steps you can take to support the implementation of an evidence-based practice in your setting.

This checklist focuses on implementing mastery learning.

Have I...
*developed, or drawn on an existing learning progression in line with my curriculum document/syllabus?
* used my formative assessment or existing data to identify a way to determine where my students are currently at in their learning and the correct level of challenge for them?
* broken the learning objectives down into what students should know, understand or be able to do by the end of the [lesson/week/unit]?
* established the success criteria for each of my learning objectives? (See explicit instruction for more detail on setting learning objectives)
* sequenced tasks so that it is clear to my students how their skills and level of mastery build as they go through them?
* used formative assessment to gather data about which of my students are ready to progress and which need additional practice to master the content?
* planned some revision and enrichment activities to cater to my students who need the additional practice or extension?
* planned opportunities for my students to review the learning over time?
* reflected on what my formative assessment has told me about how students are mastering the tasks so that success criteria and learning objectives can be revised over time?

This Early Childhood Learning Trajectory video outlines children’s progress in mathematical thinking. It can be used alongside the EYLF 2.0 assessment and planning cycle to support children’s learning, development and wellbeing.

This practice guide will help teachers check that students understand and can apply new knowledge and skills, and give additional instruction, guidance or feedback where necessary.

This practice guide will help you understand how to:

*check your students understand and can apply the knowledge and skills they have gained
*be responsive to students’ needs by supporting them with additional instruction, guidance or feedback where necessary.

This practice resource explains how to support students struggling with foundational literacy and numeracy skills using an MTSS approach. It’s the second part of a series of guidance created in partnership with DSF.

Non-verbal correction is a skill that supports and maintains positive student behaviour. Non-verbal corrections provide students with a clear, visible corrective gesture that acts as a behavioural prompt without the use of words.

Planning for classroom management is important preparation for building positive connections and modelling, teaching, revising and reinforcing the expectations, routines and rules of the classroom. Effective planning will support you in promoting positive learning behaviours, reducing disengaged and disruptive behaviours, and effectively responding when they do occur.

This guide is the second in a series of 4, and focuses on prioritising curriculum, pedagogical and assessment approaches to achieve the goals in a strategic plan. Once you’ve set goals and associated targets in specific learning areas, you’ll need to prioritise approaches to achieve each goal. An approach is a high-level improvement strategy that shows how you will work towards a goal. Approaches that focus on curriculum, pedagogy and assessment have the greatest impact on learning. This guide recommends practical steps for prioritising approaches to achieve each goal within a strategic plan. We recommend reading this guide after you have read the first guide in this series, Setting Goals and Targets for Student Learning. After reading this guide, we recommend you read Selecting Practices to Deliver Improvement.

This tool can be used to examine your own approaches for engaging with families to support student learning. It is designed around the ‘promising approaches’; the approaches for engaging with families that research evidence shows can have a measurable positive effect on student learning outcomes.

The Research reflection guide (the guide) helps education practitioners and policymakers reflect on a piece of research that provides evidence about the effectiveness of a particular policy, program or practice (that is, an approach), which they may be considering implementing.

This worksheet helps you to reflect on a piece of research. The research you choose to reflect on should be about a particular education policy, program or practice (that is, an approach) that you may be considering using in your school, service or classroom.

This is an example of a completed research reflection guide worksheet, which is available on the Australian Education Research Organisation’s website.
