Developing students’ independent learning skills has been one of major concerns of most schools in recent years. A Staff Professional Development Workshop on “Self-regulated Learning” (SRL) conducted by Miss Jannie Tsang and Miss Leung Kit Yan of the Centre for Excellence in Learning and Teaching (CELT) was held on March 24, 2021 for the teachers of Carmel Pak U Secondary School.
The three orientations of Self-regulated Learning illustrated with relevant cases were discussed. A sample lesson plan was provided for teachers to identify the SRL elements and the features of the lesson design. After the theory input and analysis of the lesson plan, the teachers engaged in designing either a lesson or a learning activity with a special focus on developing students’ learning strategies or self-learning habits for their respective subjects. The sharing from the teachers had inspired one another in designing lessons integrated with SRL elements to align with the major concern of the school.
