{{adaptedfrom|TESSA Working With Teachers|SharingPractice|'''8 How can you deepen your engagement with the ORBIT community and others involved in working with teachers <nowiki>in an open educational resource (OER) environment? [Community of practice]</nowiki>''' | |||
The ORBIT materials are OERs. This means that they can be freely shared, adapted and used by anyone. | |||
You might start with the community closest to you – in your own context. If you are a teacher educator working in a college or university, these questions might help: | |||
* To what extent do teacher educators at my institution work together? | |||
* How could I benefit from increasing this collaboration? | |||
* Am I personally prepared to put the effort into working together? | |||
* How can I start a conversation about how to do this? | |||
Teacher development may start in an institution, but schools and communities are involved as well. | |||
* How can you share your ORBIT experiences with others who work with teachers in schools and in your local community? | |||
You could use the following steps for selecting and preparing to use ORBIT activities in the curriculum: | |||
# Select an appropriate theme or teaching approach that you’ve identified as needing attention, or which is on your curriculum/scheme of work for the next few weeks – this might be one which you find particularly challenging to teach, one which your learners have struggled with or a new way of teaching that you want to try out. | |||
# Locate and review relevant ORBIT materials to identify suitable sections which match your chosen theme, topic or skill. | |||
# Ask yourself what you as a teacher have planned to achieve through teaching your theme and topic. | |||
# Read the ORBIT activities and related case studies and resources. | |||
# Select the relevant ORBIT activities or case studies that match what you planned to achieve. Find the resources you need. | |||
# Adapt the ORBIT activities to suit your pupils and your surroundings | |||
You should consider the prior knowledge and experiences either of the teachers, or the pupils they’re working with.}} | |||
