Strategies to Empower Student Learning: An Australian Perspective
Mark Dixon
Apollo Parkways Primary Schools in Victoria, Australia
This poster session had some incredible materials centering around Bloom‚s Taxonomy. It highlights an inquiry learning process, from an Australian http://www.apolloparkps.vic.edu.au perspective that is set up to get kids engaged in their learning. Here is the web site of the school. http://www.apolloparkps.vic.edu.au
They had a book called Teaching Thinking Skills in the Primary Years. I have to have it! Here is the website for the book. http://www.hbe.com.au The guy told me that there were other good resources there.
They had some really good materials and you can be sure those kids are thinking! I shared the little Bloom‚s Taxonomy flip book that I use all the time with students. If anybody wants to know about that, I can provide info when I get back home.
