Explicit Teaching in Education
Explicit teaching in education refers to teacher-centered instruction focusing on clear goals and outcomes. It involves making these goals transparent to learners, developing social and emotional skills, and providing opportunities for practice. Effective programs go beyond information-giving to teach interpersonal skills like communication, negotiation, time management, and conflict resolution. Goal-setting and clear examples help guide students in their learning journey.

Module 4: Explicit teaching The Victorian Curriculum F 10: Health and Physical Education and Personal and Social Capability, including Respectful Relations
What is explicit teaching? In the field of education, explicit instruction refers to teacher-centred instruction that is focused on clear behavioural and cognitive goals and outcomes. These in turn are made explicit or transparent to learners.

Personal and Social Capability The Personal and Social Capability describes social and emotional learning as discrete knowledge, understandings and skills, rather than a statement of pedagogy. Successful social and emotional learning programs move beyond giving information to explicitly teaching and providing opportunities for students to practise interpersonal skills.
For example, just because a student completes a task as part of the team, this does not mean that they acquire the knowledge, understandings and skills necessary to work collaboratively with others.
The knowledge, understandings and skills for working collaboratively include: 1. communication 2. negotiation 3. time management 4. conflict resolution All need to be explicitly taught and assessed.

Scenarios The use of scenarios enables students to develop and practise responses to a range of situations. Working together enables students to learn a range of strategies that they could use to resolve situations.
Role-plays Role-plays enable students to practise their responses to a variety of situations. Without practice, the application of strategies is difficult. We ve all said we ll do something in a situation, but then often don t. Make sure content is looked at not presentation.
Help seeking What might you teach?
What is the problem? Who could you go to for help? Would it be helpful if a friend went with you? Or someone else? How do I make time with the person I would like help from? What do I say?
Explicit teaching requires in-depth lesson plans with clear goals that are evident to students. Role modelling, shared experiences and guided practice all contribute to students developing the ability to individually demonstrate knowledge and skills.
