LI and SC Takeaways
Characteristics of Effective LI
Learning intentions are statements which summarise the purpose of a lesson in terms of learning (not what they are doing).
Ask ‘what do I want my pupils to learn in this lesson?’ to help plan the LI and SC.
Gauge current understanding through starters and adapt LI and SC if needed
Start with a broad learning intention then break in down in to manageable bites for individual lessons/groups of lessons.
A useful acronym is WALT: ‘What we Are Learning Today’.
LI can either relate to (factual) knowledge (to know that) or (procedural) knowledge (to know how to e.g. a skill).
Characteristics of Success Criteria
Recommended to use process SC over product SC as it supports self and teacher assessment.
Success Criteria are more helpful to learners if they are broken down into ingredients, steps, or possible inclusions.
Closed skills need compulsory criteria to succeed e.g. a formula in Maths whereas open skills need a menu of possibilities e.g. creative writing in English.
For lessons that focus on both factual and procedural knowledge – success criteria for both aspects is vital.
For transferable skills – avoid use of context to allow use in different contexts.
Co-constructed SC are more clearly owned, understood and remembered than those given.
Awareness of what success looks like and comparing good and poor examples also have more impact.
Class SC can be changed on the spot if students need more steps/support.
