All Systems Go – Providing Insight with the Science of Learning
On 31 January 2023, Catholic Education Tasmania hosted nearly 2,000 educators in four different locations throughout the state at an All System Day – CET’s largest professional learning event to date.
Educators were informed by a nationally significant educational experts on high impact teaching practice and the positive outcomes it has for student learning. Presenters included
- Dr Lorraine Hammond AM, Associate Professor in the School of Education at Edith Cowan University
- Ollie Lovell, Teacher, Podcaster and Author
- Dr Nathaniel Swain, Teacher, Instructional Coach and Researcher
- Michael Roberts, HITP Coach for Insight
- Toni Hatten-Roberts, HITP Coach for Insight
- Reid Smith, Ochre Education
The event was held at Wrest Point Casino in Hobart, with three other locations throughout Tasmania simultaneously broadcasting the All System Day. Attendees, virtually and in person, had the opportunity to listen to six different presentations on important aspects of the Insight project.
There were also opportunities for educators who attended the All System Day to have discussions about the concepts and presentations they had heard, and importantly it was one of the first occasions since COVID-19 for staff in each of the regions to be in the same location.
Attendees of the Insight day spoke glowingly of the high quality and professionalism of each of the presentations that were shared with staff on the day.
Two further development days will be held later in the year, which will provide the 24 participating CET schools with system-wide training and development for all educators.
