Online workshop on pedagogy and assessment in Off Centre by Haresh Sharma

I had the privilege, a fortnight ago, of conducting a bespoke online workshop for teachers on pedagogy and assessment in Off Centre by Haresh Sharma.

For participants who signed up, I got a sensing of what they wanted – and needed – to know before designing the workshop to meet their needs.

The eventual workshop objectives:

• To use reframing as a strategy to creatively employ pedagogical strategies when teaching Off Centre in the classroom.
• To consider diagnostic methods that identify both students’ learning gaps for national examinations and appropriate learning interventions.
