Episode notes
Effective INSET Practices
- Focus on sustained, embedded professional development, not one-off training sessions.
- Avoid constantly changing professional development topics; maintain consistent core strands.
Problem-Based INSET
- INSET, like homework or group work, requires careful planning and execution to succeed.
- A problem-based approach, identifying existing issues before implementing solutions, leads to more effective INSET.
INSET Best Practices
- Implement slow, steady professional development focused on identified problems.
- Encourage active participation through meaningful activities, like many whiteboards and myths-or-facts exercises, not icebreakers.
