The Victorian Teaching and Learning Model 2.0

The VTLM 2.0, an updated educational framework for Victorian government schools, focuses on evidence-based teaching practices based on cognitive science, neuroscience, and educational psychology. It simplifies the previous model into two main sets of elements: four elements of learning (attention, knowledge and memory, retention and recall, and mastery and application) and four elements of teaching (planning, enabling learning, explicit teaching, and supported application). At its core, VTLM 2.0 emphasises explicit teaching, which involves clear learning objectives, building on prior knowledge, breaking new information into manageable chunks, modelling, scaffolding practice, and timely feedback to manage students’ cognitive load effectively. As a CRT, it’s crucial to grasp the VTLM 2.0 components and their impact on your work in schools in the coming years. Join the panel’s preliminary discussion of the model and ensure you participate in this significant initiative.
