The resource materials in the Learning Diary: Perseverance help you to distil important messages, home in on the key bits of information and design learning experiments specifically for you.
Learning Diary: Perseverance
You will probably need to spend more than an hour on sections 1-3. Section 1 may take about 20 minutes to get your head round. Section 2 should take you about 20 minutes to browse through. Section 3 needs at least a 35 minutes hard thinking. Section 4 is a linked Professional Learning Team session which will have been organised to take place sometime after this on-line session, and should take about 75 minutes.
