Half Day Workshop: High Impact Teaching Strategies - What Works, What Matters
Designed for busy educators who want to refine their craft, this session explores how to apply the HITS in real classrooms and training environments.
Description
How do we teach in ways that make the greatest difference? This practical, researchinformed workshop introduces the High Impact Teaching Strategies (HITS) - a set of ten evidence-based practices identified by the Victorian Department of Education as having the strongest effect on student learning outcomes.

Through interactive discussion, practical examples, and self-reflection, participants will discover how to embed high-impact strategies into their everyday practice to maximise student engagement, understanding, and achievement.
Whether you're new to the HITS or looking to refresh and refine your approach, this workshop will help you align your teaching with what matters most for learning success.
