Description

workshop: Facilitating teacher learning groups with the ‘Social Regulation Tool’

In this workshop, the Social Regulation Tool (SRT) is presented and discussed. This tool aims to provide insight in the social configuration and value creation of Teacher Learning Groups (TLGs). The social configuration is based on the three dimensions of the Dimensions of Social Learning Questionnaire (DSLQ, Vrieling-Teunter et al., submitted). The value creation stems upon the five values of the Value Creation Questionnaire (VCQ), based on the Framework of Wenger et al. (2011). Both frameworks are explained during the workshop, as they form the SRT’s foundation. The SRT consists of 1) the DSLQ and VCQ to fill out individually, 2) a format which visualises questionnaire data, and 3) a conversation guideline on how to discuss the visualisation. Workshop participants will be given the opportunity to follow this protocol and experience how the SRT works. The first tentative findings (piloted at three Dutch universities of applied sciences) will also be presented, including TLG members’ reflections. Finally, plans and possibilities to further develop the SRT will be discussed, in which workshop participants can share thoughts and give advice. The workshop aims are threefold: 1) to inform educational practitioners who work in a TLG about the tool’s purpose and availability; 2) to acquire participants’ input to further improve the tool; 3) to receive insight about the tool as an educational intervention.
