Designing powerful, in-depth curriculum that has a focus on inquiry learning is a challenging and often daunting task for teachers.  eUP  has been developed for teams of educators wishing to design, record and review curriculum using a series of wizard-like questions that guide teachers through the planning process.
Often however, teaching teams benefit from expert facilitation in guiding their thinking and developing their understanding of the design and import of inquiry learning.  They need support in differentiating their curriculum and personalising the learning for their students.  They need to understand how to balance mandated Standards and inquiry learning.  They often struggle with effective strategies for developing the cooperative and collaborative nature of their classroom.

Amanda is an accredited eUP Consultant and brings to the role extensive experience in the ‘how’ associated with incorporating Multiple Intelligences, Thinking Tools, Cooperative Learning, Habits of Mind, Reflective Journals, Strategic Questioning, Bloom’s Taxonomy and effective Assessment into the taught curriculum.  She works with schools all over the State to build their capacity to maximise the fabulous resource and planning tool that is eUP.

Schools wishing to examine eUP in action can have a demonstration at their school (for leadership teams or whole staff) at no cost.  Amanda works with Leadership Teams on request  to establish the learning needs of their staff and tailors her work with individual teaching teams accordingly.  This Professional Learning is generally conducted during Planning Weeks in schools.

Testimonials

I have found Amanda to be very helpful and in particular the planning session this week.  I think it was definitely worth the investment!!  Working one on one with Amanda helped me understand the components of eUP better.  She also has magnificent ideas and does not hold back in sharing these. Richmond Primary School Teacher

The (eUP) work that you have done with our team of teachers has been fabulous. The feedback from the teachers has been most positive. When I walk around the school I see that there is quite a difference in learning activities. There is certainly more discussion about learning and teaching. –

Amanda, the feedback from staff has been fantastic from your (eUP) workshops!
