At TENZ 2015, Moira Patterson launched the TENZ PLP - an exciting new professional development programme for Technology teachers in all areas and at all levels.
TENZ is offering professional development for Technology education:
- To provide equal opportunity
- To fill gaps in current professional development
- To respond to specific needs of teachers at all levels
The professional learning programme offered by TENZ is designed to provide ongoing, developmental and progressive learning opportunities. Teachers will be exposed to best practice in technology education, asked to examine theoretical understandings underpinning technology education, to be reflective and link knowledge gained to their own classroom practice.
- The PLP programme will be tailored to meet and address the needs of participating teachers, teaching in different sectors and in diverse contexts.
- The programme will be lead by quality facilitators, involve a mix of face-to-face delivery and supported online.
- An additional option to use the professional learning obtained through participation in this programme to apply for Masters credit through the University of Waikato is also offered.
DELIVERY
Different delivery options are offered
* A four-day Block Course
* Two block days + two block days
* Or one day every 5-6 weeks over two terms
The final structure will be determined by teacher’s needs and location.
