Design For Learning

Design for Learning

Design learning based on curriculum and pedagogical knowledge, assessment information and
an understanding of each learner’s strengths, interests, needs, identities, languages and cultures.

• Select teaching approaches, resources, and learning and assessment activities based on a thorough knowledge of curriculum content, pedagogy, progressions in learning and the learners. 

• Gather, analyse and use appropriate assessment information, identifying progress and needs of learners to design clear next steps in learning and to identify additional supports or adaptations that may be required. 

• Design and plan culturally responsive, evidence-based approaches that reflect the local community and Te Tiriti o Waitangi partnership in New Zealand. 

• Harness the rich capital that learners bring by providing culturally responsive and engaging contexts for learners. 

• Design learning that is informed by national policies and priorities.
