Experienced methods. A conscious choice for your teaching.
Understanding teaching approaches
Identify what helped you think independently and what you gained from talking with others. Use that experience to recognise when students need time and when a question or feedback can help.
An idea for your own class
Choose a specific approach that gives students room to work for themselves and consider how to use it in your classroom, drawing on your experience and strengths. Your first attempt gives you a chance to observe how students respond and decide what to do next.
First a participant, then a guide
Each part connects personal experience with analysis of the method used. The activity's content helps you discover your possibilities; shared reflection shows how to guide similar learning with students.
-
Recognise what you bring
Identify your experience, interests and strengths and compare them with others' perspectives.
-
Find applications in the classroom
In a small group, explore how to use your resources in the classroom and notice what helps you in that search.
-
Examine the guidance and choose the next step
Examine the guide's methods and choose what to keep, change or try in your own teaching.
What you will learn
First, experience the approaches as participants. Then examine their purpose and choose how to use them when guiding learning in your classroom.
