Why an interest in intuition?
Conceptions of professionalism:- Evidence based practice e.g.Geoff Petty
‘Evidence based practice’ 2006
- Reflective practice
Current practice: An articulated and conscious explication of our actions: reflecting, reframing, considering and analysing teaching decisions

Studies of expertise: What they tell us about complex decision making and skilled professionals
So what is this intuition?
1.An old pedigree
2.Hard to define:

- From the management literature:…. ‘Non conscious, quick pattern recognition andsynthesis of past professional experience and expertise’Sinclair & Ashkanasy 2005
Behling & Eckel 1991 eg suggest managers are using their “gut feelings’ to help in decision making especially in very complex situations where probably to take the logical, conscious, analytical approach would take too long
Korthagen 2005 “ in the case of intuition, it is a question of seeing through things, seeing down to what is implicit, uncovering the layer beneath the surface, the things that cannot be expressed directly in linearlanguage….….

Definitions
Eraut 1995 who re-examines the concept of ‘reflection-in-action’
Atkinson & Claxton (2000 and 2002) expertise defined as fluent, intricate largely unconscious
performance; Learning can also be implicit judgement sensitivity and awareness (receptiveness to the context) creativity and imagination synthesis

What conditions encourage the development of intuition? focus on the external world; on the
experience; on the ‘other’ not the ‘I’ Development of confidence Relative freedom to act Freedom from anxiety time

Rethinking the practicum Current focus on reflection:Why? Mentor encourages mentee to reflect
sustaining power relationshipReflection can be identified, measured, made
visible (ink not think)Reflection focuses primarily on the behaviour of
the student teacher (the ‘you’)Reflection tends to be backward lookingReflective dialogues can slip into justificatory
dialogues

The pupils were listening to you, copying from acetates/sheets. You had some whole class Q & A but questions were low order; asking them to repeat knowledge. When they didn’t know the answer you told them. Consider how you can develop more higher-order thinking in your questioning and in the way you set up activities
9.12 am Topic sheet given out. Make it clear where you want it put.
9.12 am Reference to Venn diagram building in previous work. Good.

Strengths: Your planning was good (see 3.1.1)
Plan for progression across the age and ability range they teach, designing effective learning sequences within lessons and across series of lessons informed by secure subject/curriculum knowledge. Read C26 NQT guidance

Feedback So, …. what seems to you the best way to deal with
the issue …the fact.. the issue that they’ve all got to listen to the other… and you said earlier that sometimes this was tedious for them.. did they get bored… and then they chatted
Me1:Yeah yeah but I.. M1: And it is always a problem… what could we do.. Me1: Erm… I thought of that …. That’s why I said about gave them
some rules… I’m trying to get them to listen to others .. they are curious you know
M1:I can see that … yeah… you’ve 24? Me1: Yes, 24 M1: .so that’s 8 groups roughly Me1 It doesn’t work like that you see because one group was only 2
and M1: So was it simply the number of groups in total? Me1: No, no, they can’t write fantastic web sites, tho theyre pretty
good; but they can understand, you know appreciate a good or a bad one so..

Feedforward

Me4 Yeah then each group has one paragraph and …they get to read it first M5. .Right, OK, so each have a copy? Me4 Yeah.

H: I actually like my classroom,my environment, because I feel that’s between me and the pupils, we are learning together. Whereas if someone in there, it creates a false situation
Moore and Ash 2002
S: I mean I find it helpful when the supervisor talks to us as a group about things we ourselves bring up as important to us, rather than just that lesson
Kennedy 2004

The nicest part was when I was left alone with the class; noone there. In some ways it was easier because I really concentrated more on the kids rather than me; but of course if someone was observing, the kids often were better behaved.

FOCUSa. On the before teaching stage: ensure
well prepared and rehearsed. Develop reflective dialogue at this point
a. To develop certain routines of action
b. To encourage peers to work together on planning and/or with mentor
c. To encourage observation and reflective dialogue with others; especially peers.

SPARR
Support planning – materials, activities and routines of practice; Mentor role essential
Act: Activities which encourage other aspects of intuition such as awareness raising e.g. a close and focused observation by them of learners and their reactions to tasks
Recall: Pupil focus – building up a library of experiences.
Review: Trainees meet together to ‘review’ particular aspects of teaching (mimicking staffrooms and equality of relationships)
