近期，小学部老师们齐聚一堂，探讨有效教学，首先主讲老师Lisa 老师分享了自己最喜欢的两个学习者档案，分别是：心胸开阔的人和反思者，并讲述了两个目标对教师职业发展的作用。

Teachers gathered together for the effective education seminar, and the host of the meeting Ms. Lisa shared two favourite learner profiles which were open-minded and reflective respectively. She elaborated that the effects of these two goals for professional development.

老师们相信，选择合适的教学策略和协作可以提高教学技能和职业幸福感。老师们也和学生们一样，遵循探究路线，找出自己感兴趣的问题和擅长的方面，依据目标进行分组。

Teachers believed that appropriate teaching strategies and collaboration would improve teaching skills and career well-being. They followed the lines of inquiry similar to how students complete research, finding the aspects that they are interested or skilled in. Then teachers are grouped according to these aspects.

在ASJ，老师组内的活动跟学生的一样丰富多彩。擅长这个小组目标领域的将会给想要达成该目标的老师建议，组内的老师也会结对学习成长，组成critical friends。在ASJ，critical friends 可不简单，他们之间需要互相听课，互相反思，并且依照SMART 原则来设立共同目标。

In PYP, teachers’ activities in groups are as vivid as students’. The people who are expert in an area would advise others. Moreover, teachers who signed up for critical friends would pair up for learning and growing. Those amazing critical friends should observer and reflect the classes each other, and set up shared goal by SMART principles.

随后Tracy 老师分享了用SMART 原则来设立的中文阅读教学目标，首先，阅读目标需要足够具体，例如建立阅读环境、阅读评估、评估工具和反思要求都是很好的例子。同时，阅读目标需要有可以衡量的方式，这个方式也是可以达到的，同时还需要照顾相关性和时间要求。老师们相信，无论是目标的建立还是教学，都必须是严谨的、科学的。

After that, Miss Tracy shared a fantastic example goal-setting in Chinese reading referring to SMART principles. First, the reading target should be specific, such as building reading environment, setting up assessment tools and refection requirements. Meanwhile, reading goals should be measurable, achievable, relevant and time-bound. The teachers believe that no matter goal setting or teaching, every step should be rigorous as well as scientific.

Angela 老师也分享组建了不起的critical friends 小组的体验，在紧凑的工作当中需要列举清单高效完成工作，与学生保持分享，并且每天抽出时间读书。她和小组成员约定，定期交换读书成果以及摘要。

After that Miss Angela shared the feeling and experience on founding an “Amazing critical friend". She indicated that teachers should prioritize the lists to work effectively and share with students. Besides, reading is essential everyday. She made an agreement at exchanging the reading digest with groupmates regularly.
