A learner profile is created by students and whānau.
Students can choose to present information in any media.
Discuss with ākonga and their whānau what information will help inform their learning.
Creative alternatives to learner profiles:
1. All About Me Interviews
Record answers through voice, video, or drawing.
2. Video Introductions / Self-Presentations
3. Photo Collages or Vision Boards
4. Learning Choice Baskets
5. Interactive Poster or Wall Display
Create a classroom wall or board where students can add post-its or pictures under categories:
“I feel calm when…”
“I like learning with…”
“I want to get better at…”
I personally do a survey at the beginning of every class, every semester ... to get an idea of who is in the classroom to begin with and what they would benefit, or what they want to see in the class, what would work [and not work] for them.
