Case studies

The following case studies show how schools organise personal learning goal development, monitoring and reporting:

Maryborough Education Centre – Years 9 – 12 campus 
This campus has developed a process, timeline and a number of tools that help students develop, monitor and report on their personal learning goals. They utilise a Share Point website, incorporating questions to get students thinking about their learning goals.

Flora Hill College – Years 7 – 10
This school adopted the development of personal learning goals by integrating the new process into its existing organisational structures. They have Form Groups with one responsible teacher as mentor. Each Form Group meets with their teacher for 15 minutes everyday. Additionally, the Form Group has a double period (86 minutes) every week for a ‘Community’ lesson based on the Interpersonal Development, Personal Learning, and Civics and Citizenship domains.

Eumemmerring College – Fountain Gate Campus, Years 7 – 10
At this campus, students work with their home-group teacher to develop, monitor and reflect on their personal learning goals and portfolios. This is seen as a continuation of the work already underway, whereby students worked together and used quality learning tools to develop goals and values for their campus.

Glen Katherine Primary School
Students work with their class teacher to set learning goals, plan for learning improvement and reflect on their learning. They use templates to assist in the process.

Wheelers Hill Primary School
Teachers at this school use a student learning and improvement booklet to encourage students to take responsibility for their own learning. The booklet supports a process developed with the intention of providing information to parents that provides a fuller picture of their child’s progress by highlighting their ability to set goals, work on action plans for improvement, track progress and reflect on their learning.
