Professional Learning Programme: The Enterprising Practitioner
Are you Looking for creative ways to develop children and young people’s learning about the world of work?
Enterprising attitudes and skills such as generating ideas, creative problem solving, being pro-active and tenacious and taking responsibility, help to support our young people to cope with, and indeed succeed, in our increasingly dynamic wold of work. Scotland’s Enterprising Schools have developed a free online professional learning programme – The Enterprising Practitioner to help you have a better understanding of enterprise education and how you can help young people develop an enterprising mind set.
The three module programme aims to give you a brief introduction to this broad area:
Module 1 introduces you to the wider context of enterprise in education and the key stakeholders who can help you. Module 2 reviews key teaching approaches commonly used by practitioners to help support enterprising learning and Module 3 has a focus on self-employment and entrepreneurship and aims to bust many of the myths surrounding this area.
Each module is supported by an activity pack designed to challenge you to reflect on each area and consider your own practice and that of your school.
