Ontario Learning Skills

Developing and integrating learning skills within the curriculum is essential for students to achieve academic success and personal growth. Independent work skills, such as following instructions with minimal supervision and effectively using class time, are critical.

Curriculum and Learning Skills Integration

In my experience, COVID 19 has disrupted the ability to integrate learning skills with the content
Ex. Although I have noticed a lack of initiative for students to collaborate in groups, I also noticed a lack of self-regulation and initiative. By learning remotely and without teacher supervision, students have become lazy, unmotivated, and struggle with critical thinking skills. These students will require explicit assistance from the teacher to learn these skills that they missed out on during this remote time.
Ex. collaboration is at an all time low since students have been isolated from their peers for so long. I noticed that many kids were reluctant to work in groups and kept to themselves. Thus, the lack of this learning skill integrated in the curriculum will create many problematic life skills that will affect them outside of the class.
We report on learning skills because they are part of the curriculum
identify strengths that students have so they can take advantage of these skills

Ex. a student that is very organized may want to pursue a carrier that values this (i.e., office administrator)

need to identify areas of weakness to support learning

Ex. a student that has problems with collaborating should be given opportunities to work with peers and be provided with feedback on how to improve these interactions.

Learning skills provide them with the tools and skills they need to strengthen their learning
lifelong ongoing skills
Ex. need to develop responsibility to show up to a job and have a carrier
required for life skills
required for learning the curriculum
Students need to develop their learning skills to fully understand the course content
Learning skills need to be integrated into the curriculum
