2026 – 2027
Goal 1 — Strategic Initiative
AI-Supported Design of Teaching and Learning Resources

Connected to ISNS's Digital and Media Literacy (AI) strategic initiative, this goal explores how AI can support the design of clearer, better-scaffolded teaching resources — worksheets, worked solutions, and presentation materials — while keeping sound pedagogy and student learning at the centre of the process. Resources will be trialled with students and refined throughout the year based on their work, questions, and feedback.

Goal 2 — Self-Directed
Developing as a Professional Speaker and Conference Presenter

Building confidence, clarity, and effectiveness as a presenter, in order to share professional learning and classroom practice with wider educator audiences. This includes studying effective conference presenters, developing and submitting proposals, rehearsing with peer feedback, and presenting at one or more education conferences during the 2026–2027 school year.

2025 – 2026
Goal 1 — Professional
Lead a Professional Development Session for Colleagues

Design and deliver a professional development session that models effective strategies in technology integration, AI-enhanced instruction, and student-centred learning. This goal focuses on sharing expertise with colleagues, fostering collaboration, and supporting the school's strategic initiative to enhance teaching and learning.

Goal 2 — Personal
Prioritising Ongoing Professional Development

Commit to continuous professional growth by actively engaging in workshops and conferences. This includes refining instructional practices, deepening expertise in AI and IB pedagogy, and sustaining personal well-being to ensure long-term effectiveness as an educator.

2024 – 2025
Goal 1
Data-Driven Teaching & Learning with Technology

Enhance teaching effectiveness by leveraging formative assessment data and Moodle analytics to inform instructional decisions. This includes using data-driven insights to tailor lessons, improve student engagement, and refine assessment strategies to better support learning outcomes.

Goal 2
Expanding Professional Involvement in the IB and Wider Education Community

Actively engage in the global IB and education community by participating in WASC, IB, and other professional networks to enhance pedagogical knowledge and contribute to best practices beyond ISNS.

2023 – 2024
Goal 1
Develop Myself as an IBEN Educator by Taking on a New Role

Committed to enhancing my role within the International Baccalaureate Educator Network (IBEN) by training to become an IB workshop leader. This role deepens understanding of IB philosophies and allows me to directly influence and shape the professional development of fellow educators.

Goal 2
Present at the IB Global Conference

Deliver a compelling presentation at the IB Global Conference showcasing innovative practices in integrating AI into inquiry-based learning, contributing to the global dialogue on enhancing IB education with technology.

Goal 3
AI-Enhanced Teaching and Learning

Enrich teaching methodology by integrating AI technologies into inquiry-based lessons, fostering a more dynamic, personalised, and interactive learning environment aligned with the IB philosophy of encouraging students to be active, engaged, and reflective learners.

2022 – 2023
Goal 1
Inquiry-Based Lessons

Committed to making lessons more inquiry-based, in line with the IB teaching and learning philosophy. Focused on designing experiences where students drive their own understanding through questioning, investigation, and reflection.

Goal 2
Apply to the International High School Teacher Programme by CERN

A chance to observe real-world experiments in particle physics at CERN — an area that students at ISNS find particularly challenging. This programme offers direct exposure to cutting-edge physics research and its educational applications.

2021 – 2022
Goal 1
Use of Technology in the Classroom

Explored technology-enhanced learning by incorporating digital tools and simulations into physics lessons. Conducted a student survey to evaluate the effectiveness of PhET simulations in a Grade 10 class.

Goal 2
Pursue a Doctorate in Education

After completing a Master of Advanced Teaching at the University of the People with a 4.0 GPA, committed to taking the next step in the academic journey by pursuing a Doctor of Education — now completed.
