23 Operating Instructions for SpNAP e-workbook About SpNAP e-workbook This e-workbook is where you collect, on a continuing basis, the learning goals that you have developed throughout the needs analysis process. The ultimate purpose of SpNAP is to help you enhance your school leadership capabilities and make your day-to-day practice more effective. This e-workbook is therefore central to your needs analysis in that it provides a structure that enables you to pull together the thoughts and reflections that you have developed while working through the four programme elements. You do this through recording the learning goals you identified while going through the process. As stressed throughout, the Learning Goals are an essential part of the Goal-Based Learning process and lead to the writing of an Action Plan (the Continuing Professional Development Plan). This e-workbook has two major sections, The Leader's Learning Journal and The Tripod Journal When used in conjunction with the other element sections of SpNAP, this e-workbook provides a simple process designed to help you analyse your developmental needs. Navigating the SpNAP e-workbook Click on Top bar, Side bar or Bottom bar items as well as the Next, Top and Previous icons to navigate / select what to read. View and Modify Learning Goals in Leader s Learning Journal As you complete each element booklet (or different mechanisms included in them), with the assistance of the Transfer function, your most important initial learning goals should have been transferred to the appropriate place in this e-workbook. For example, when you have completed the Beliefs and Values Scan (or one of its mechanisms), the learning goals you identified should have been transferred to the Leader's Learning Journal in this e-workbook, if you have clicked on Transfer in the Initial Learning Goals table in Beliefs and Values Scan section.

This plan begins with the most important targets identified during the Tripod Process, or those you determined at other stages of the analysis. These targets are then operationalised. Targets may be transferred and operationalised at any stage of the needs analysis process, you do not need to wait until you have completed a specific element. The SpNAP e-portfolio Guide provides some guidelines for building a principal s portfolio. As with all of SpNAP, a portfolio is optional but highly recommended. A portfolio allows you to record evidence of your learning. This learning should relate to your learning targets, but can also include learning and development which happens outside of the needs analysis.
