Webinar 13th October 2021: "Marking & Feedback Masterclass" - Rahoo

A Virtual Event for Teachers on Wednesday 13th October 2021 at 7.30pm - 8.30pm!

Who is this webinar for?

You are a teacher who is frustrated and overwhelmed with the never-ending job of marking.

You are a teacher who wants to find a balance where marking is effective and efficient – for you and your students.

You are a teacher who wants to gain confidence and competence in providing feedback to students – without adding more hours to your marking workload!

You are a teacher looking for a better approach to marking and feedback than ticking and flicking over pages and pages of student work.

Why have you created this webinar?

We created this course because marking is one of the greatest administrative burdens on a teachers time. Unfortunately, many teachers are using poor marking practices that they think is expected of them – for example ticking and flicking every page of student work.

We know that there is a better way of doing things where teachers make better professional judgments around what they mark (and what they don’t) and how they do it!

We are passionate about professional development for teachers and have worked with over 7,000 teachers since 2017. As a teacher, you are the most important person in the classroom – you make the greatest impact on the students in front of you.

What is included?

“The Marking & Feedback Masterclass” is 1 hour in duration including Q&A opportunities. The webinar workshop will focus on the why, what and how of Marking & Feedback.

Why do we mark and who is it for?
What is effective and efficient marking and feedback?
How can we do it?

This practical webinar will share common-sense approach to marking and feedback and signpost a number of methods that teachers can use to streamline their marking efficiently.

This webinar will be presented by teacher and Rahoo trainer, Ciara McGuane.

Ciara is an experienced teacher, school leader and teacher trainer. Ciara has written Rahoo’s ever-popular CPD course “Work Smarter, Be Happier for Teachers” which explores a number of different ways teachers can manage their workload. Assessment is always a hit topic and Ciara loves to share her research.

When does the webinar start and finish?

The webinar starts and finishes at 7.30pm on Wednesday 13th October to 8.30pm. Please try to be 5 minutes early and get yourself cosy with your cuppa and notebook – and a few scented candles – go on!

What if I can’t make it at the date and time? Can I attend later?

Yes – sign up as usual. Then ignore any reminder email we send about the upcoming webinar – sorry in advance! The event will be recorded and the recording will be shared the next day and available up to two weeks post-event to watch. All you need to do is log back into our platform and it will be there on the event page.

Will I be visible to other attendees?

No! Imagine a dark theatre with the lights shining on the stage – and nobody can see each other in the audience – we use Zoom webinar technology and so it is not like attending a virtual meeting. As well as this, questions can be inputted anonymously.

Do I get a certificate of attendance?

Yes, you can get a certificate post-event to download. Please ensure you do this within two weeks of the event.

Thank you for taking the time to check out this webinar.

Feel free to get in touch with us at info@rahoo.ie if you have any questions you would like to ask. We love hearing from you and will do all that we can to support you!
