Our Teaching Competencies form the basis of our Teacher Capability Development approach.
To help you understand where you sit in relation to each of the competencies we’ve developed an online tool that enables you to do a 10-15 minute self-evaluation against the competencies. This will provide a “profile” of strengths and potential areas for development, which can used as an input into development conversations with your manager and in particular development planning – the D of ADEP.
Click the button below to get started:
A few points to note in regard to the self-evaluation:
-
- Follow the instructions on screen to complete and submit your self-evaluation – it should take about 10-15 minutes
- We use an adaptation of Pohatu’s Mauri Model to evaluate competency. This is a four-stage developmental model which focuses on fulfilling one’s potential through continuous learning.
- You will get the chance to review your results before submitting – simply use the ‘Back’ / ‘Next buttons to navigate. Note that upon submission, in addition to yourself, your manager will also receive a copy of your self-evaluation via email. This is for use in your development discussions – it should not be shared further without your explicit permission.
- The results of your self-evaluation will also be available to the relevant Te Puna Ako Liaison person so they can advise on professional development options accordingly.
- Aggregate reports, e.g at School level, will also be made available to Heads of Schools, TPA and HR Business Partners to understand competency profiles and development priorities at a pathway level.
- We welcome feedback and encourage you to send any comments/suggestions to Jocelyn Williams, Manager – Te Puna Ako, jwilliams@unitec.ac.nz
