Practice resource Jun 2025 AERO's writing instruction model This model introduces an approach to teaching writing that is explicit and systematic, and that can be used in all subject areas that require students to write. AERO’s School Writing Instruction Framework (SWIF) professional learning courses align with and support the implementation of this model.
Practice resource Jun 2025 Leading writing instruction in your school Students' ability to write – and write well – across subjects is important for their success at school. This practice resource will help school leaders lead an approach to strengthening writing instruction at their schools, using AERO’s School Writing Instruction professional learning courses.
Course Jun 2025 Embedding effective writing assessment practices As part of AERO’s School Writing Instruction Framework (SWIF), this professional learning course aims to support school leaders and teachers in delivering evidence-based writing instruction across all subject areas in upper primary and secondary classrooms.
Course Jun 2025 Understanding sentence structure and grammar As part of AERO's School Writing Instruction Framework (SWIF), this professional learning course aims to support school leaders and teachers in delivering evidence-based writing instruction across all subject areas in upper primary and secondary classrooms.
Course Jun 2025 Understanding writing needs in your school As part of AERO's School Writing Instruction Framework (SWIF), this professional learning course aims to support school leaders in delivering evidence-based writing instruction across all subject areas in upper primary and secondary school classrooms.
Video Mar 2025 Teaching for how students learn: Scaffold practice This video demonstrates how teachers scaffold practice in alignment with AERO’s model of teaching and learning. Supports – known as scaffolds – consist of guidance from the teacher and tools and resources the student can use. Scaffolds can be designed during planning (planned scaffolding) or introduced during lessons to respond to learning needs as they arise (contingent scaffolding). Teachers select and use scaffolds to support each phase of the learning process as students retain, consolidate and apply their learning.
Video Mar 2025 Teaching for how students learn: Revisit and review This video demonstrates how teachers revisit and review student learning in alignment with AERO’s model of teaching and learning. Revisiting learning is the practice of regularly coming back to content that’s already been taught. Revisiting learning can activate prior knowledge to connect new learning with what students already know (from their previous learning at school, in the community and at home). Importantly, revisiting what’s been taught consolidates new learning.
Video Mar 2025 Teaching for how students learn: Vary practice This video demonstrates how teachers provide varied and spaced opportunities for students to practise their learning in alignment with AERO’s model of teaching and learning. Varying the ways students practise consolidates learning better than repeatedly practising in the same ways. Spacing out practice over time supports long-term retention and fluent recall by helping to manage cognitive load.
Video Mar 2025 Teaching for how students learn: Organise knowledge This video demonstrates how teachers can support students to organise their knowledge, aligning with AERO’s model of teaching and learning. When students have opportunities to organise and re-organise their knowledge in memory, and understand the connections between the ideas they learn about, they develop mental models in long-term memory that become easier to recall and apply widely in increasingly complex ways.
