Literacy and Numeracy: Towards More Effective Teaching Practice
Strengthening the literacy and numeracy components of teaching practice
is fundamental to raising the achievement of all students. Teaching
practice can be described as truly effective when it leads to positive
outcomes for all students.
Recent research has highlighted the paths that lead to positive student outcomes. These paths include:
- lifting teachers' expectations of student achievement;
- developing strong learning communities in schools;
- regularly using valid assessment data to inform practice;
- supporting principals in leading learning;
- facilitating highly effective teacher practice in every teaching and learning setting.
