        *

    */Has your school been implementing and exploring the Habits of Mind
    or Dimensions of Learning and want to find ways to further enhance
    your school journey or alternatively your school is interested in
    developing a complete learning framework that incorporates a common
    language to bind assessment, pedagogy and planning though a
    "thinking" approach? /*

    Then you might be interested in the Australian National Schools
    Network professional learning on Dimensions of Learning (DoL).

    Dimensions of Learning originated through a detailed meta-analysis
    that examined what research says about how learners learn.

    The end product is an instructional framework that incorporates the
    best of research and educational theories of how students learn.
    Dimensions of Learning contextualises successful learning in terms
    of five types of thinking dispositions and aims at providing
    strategies and skills for educators to become strategic instructors
    of learning.

    Dimensions of Learning: 5 Types of Thinking

        * Dimension 1: Attitudes and perceptions about learning
        * Dimension 2: Acquisitions and integration of knowledge
        * Dimension 3: Extension and refinement of knowledge
        * Dimension 4: Meaningful use of knowledge
        * Dimension 5: Productive habits of mind

    The focus of the training will be to provide participants with
    knowledge and skills that will help identify how students learn.
    Participants will discuss and explore how to translate this
    information into an implementation program to help schools plan
    curriculum, assessment and instructional strategies.
