Pedagogical documentation is more than just a blog

Pedagogical documentation turns much of our gathered information from merely reporting on events and activities in the children's day into documentation, which helps us notice, understand and plan effectively for individual children and group learning. It is also the key to making the learning visible. This webinar will focus on the documentation we require as educators, not 'what' occurred, but 'why' it happened and what this means. We are still documenting the same things but looking at it with a different lens. This re-focussing of our gaze allows every educator to produce rich, meaningful documentation that brings the learning to life and is consistent, engaging, and meaningful for educators to create.

Learning goals:

• gain a deeper appreciation for the value of engaging in documenting children's learning and stories.
• ability to identify a piece of pedagogical documentation 
• identify links between pedagogical documentation, the planning cycle, and the Frameworks
