NT Learning Commission – Junior advisors pitch to Ministers
“The student commissioners are using real data and conducting sophisticated analyses to identify and find solutions to their school’s own challenges.”
Bees Creek Primary School examined why students and teachers had different views on learning and engagement after their student survey results showed a decline in responses to the statement ‘My teacher understands how I learn’.Katherine High School investigated the difference between a compliant student and an engaged student, using evidence-based approaches to identify the most engaging teaching practices that will improve student learning. Wagaman and Manunda Terrace Primary Schools both examined teacher feedback and how it influenced the way students learned.
