Guest Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 Hello, can anyone tell me if they carry out peer observations in their settings, and if you do do you find them helpful? Do you use a set format for recording the observation and discuss with all staff or just the observed staff member? mrsb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rea Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 I printed off the article in resources last week so staff can have a think about it. I thought it might feed into the super idioms. Hasn't exactly answered your question though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conker Posted November 12, 2012 Share Posted November 12, 2012 I'm going to stick with the 'super idioms' 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lynned55 Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 I have to admit Rea i did wonder what a super idiom was!! I thought it was some piece of techie spak tht had passed me by!! I rarely if ever do p on p obs. Firstly I feel I really dont need to- we are a small team and really I could tell you off the top of my head how each one will work in a given situation. We have all worked together for many (too many sometimes) years. 2nd, I'm not sure they serve any real purpose- if they know you are doing them- they will act differently we all do- it's human nature- like having a camera on you & 3rd Time- we just about have enough time to do everything else let alone written obs on each other. I have to admit to quite liking the article that was in the resources library- it was very interesting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
