Lesson observation within the project “Creating the Network of Excellent ULCA Schools” was done in June 2024, as part of the activities for developing the teachers’ monitoring process within the project “Creating the Network of Excellent ULCA Schools”.
Maja Videnovik, who is a certified trainer within the project, together with Mirjana Jankulovska, from Dig-Ed, carried out lesson observations of teachers who had already attended the trainings “Learner centered approach” and “Learn&Lead – Self management” within the Erasmus+ project “Upgrade with learner centered approach – ULCA”.
During this period lessons carried out by Silvana Binova from OOU “Strašo Pindžur”, Karbinci, Irina Ivanova from OOU “11 Oktomvri”, Skopje, as well as Ljubica Tolovska and Angelčo Kjosev from OOU “Strašo Pindžur”, Negotino were observed. Maja Videnovik analyzed the classes in terms of pedagogy and the feelings during the class, and Mirjana Jankulovska conducted observation and evaluation using a checklist according with the Teacher Development Framework, created during the ULCA project.
After observing the classes, an analysis was made together with the teachers, and the level of achievement of the LCA teacher competencies was evaluated. Maja Videnovik and Mirjana Jankulovska provided constructive feedback, and an action plan was jointly developed to improve teachers’ LCA teaching methods and activities in the future.
