Felt that the start of the day was the best and most useful. The final session about questioning felt like a rehash of stuff that I’ve been told many times over the years. But I think part of the problem is that you had a lot of different educators at very different stages in their careers to try and be relevant for.
I've read quite a lot of this stuff already. Also, I don't think that EAL/ MFL learning follows the same principles, see www.sdkrashen.com as a good start or ask ChatGPT: "How do Rosenshine's principles clash with language teaching methodology."
Slides were rather general in terms of style but content was relevant and interesting
Still not sure what do do with those students that just plainly will not complete the work and say "no" when asked to do anything, fold their arms and say "I don't care".
As someone who’s been doing this a while (>30 years) there was nothing new for me here, but it served as a good refresher.
I found the second half much more useful than the first as I could link it with my subject and teaching. I didn't enjoy first half..very superficial. Really disliked the note taking video activity...it seemed flawed although I still love Ametican pie.
Course is heavily geared towards techniques for essay and writing based subjects. Stem subjects especially mathematics need a bit more subject specific techniques.
It was all relevant but I do think it was dragged out a abit and could have been alot shorter or even just a video.
Not sure how I would deal with challenging students or ways to improve my teaching practice
