Elizabeth Hutchinson and CILIP Partnership Training: Building successful teacher collaboration through FOSIL-based inquiry
Tuesday 1st June 9.30am-12.30pm
This half-day training event for school librarians will look at how to get started with approaching and working with teachers through inquiry. Delegates will explore the important role of school library staff in providing informal professional development for teachers.
An online event led by our experienced trainer Elizabeth Hutchinson, this session will focus on using the initial teacher contact form to guide school library staff into conversations about curriculum topics and demonstrate how this can help teachers understand school librarians' role within inquiry.
It is designed for school library staff working across all sectors and is a great introduction to FOSIL (Framework Of Skills for Inquiry Learning).
- Find out about the IFLA School Library Guidelines, the FOSIL Group and Backward Design.
- Examine how to work with teachers in supporting students through using an initial teacher contact form, which the trainer will share with delegates.
