Congratulations to our 2021 GraduatesĪt the Academic Assembly on 15 February, the College celebrated the excellent achievements of the 2021 VCE and VCAL graduates. It will also allow you as the supporter of their development and growth, an opportunity to advise, guide and assist. Asking the question ‘How can you improve, grow and flourish?’, will provide insights into our students' self-perceptions, possible fixed mindsets or beliefs about themselves as learners. It is an avenue for families to have discussions about the year ahead and reflect on the learnings of 2021. The Student Led Conference is the initial opportunity to enhance this partnership. This year, there will be opportunities for parents and carers to be involved in conversations about the learning and teaching program at MSJ. MSJ recognises and values the role that parents and carers play in the education of their children and we aim to strengthen this partnership to enhance our students' overall wellbeing and learning. This feedback provides students with actions and strategies to improve their learning. This is an opportune time to log into Canvas and review any feedback that your child has received this term, as all subjects will have provided feedback by a rubric and a comment. As this feedback is given straight after a piece of work, activity, project or skill is assessed, the information we are able to give to students and their families is very comprehensive and timely.Ĭanvas provides an important opportunity for students, parents and teachers to work together to achieve successful learning outcomes for our students. This system is an ongoing learning and reporting portal that enables us to give immediate feedback to our students and their families with the aim of increasing students' learning outcomes. Canvas provides the opportunity for both students and parents to engage with the classroom learning. When asking about the day or a particular subject, reframe your question, ‘What were some of the learning intentions of your lessons today?’ CanvasĪll families should now be familiar with our online learning management system, Canvas. This increases students’ self-efficacy and active learning. They are explicit so that students know where they are at in their learning and can articulate this. Success Criteria are the measures used to determine whether and how well a learner has met the learning intentions. Learning Intentions describe what learners should know, understand or be able to do by the end of a unit of work, a series of lessons or a lesson. One strategy we will continue and enhance is the use of Learning Intentions and Success Criteria. This year, teaching staff at the College are continuing to focus on enhancing pedagogy that makes learning visible. A very warm welcome to all our returning families and to all those new to the MSJ community.
