Blackburn with Darwin Adult Learning
21st Century Pedagogy
- Mind is a whirlpool of fresh thoughts and ideas which need time to impact!
- An escalator experience. Really enjoyed it and found it developmental.
Supercharged Evaluation Skills
- Stoking the furnace.
- Mindboggling – was a challenge at first, but through scaffolding I understood concepts.
- A stepping stone path leading into a new forest of discovery.
- I found this session insightful as it gave me the tools to help enable my learners to carefully evaluate their work and that of others.
- Intuitive.
- Fantastic lecturer with a great sense of knowledge and understanding. His approach was very professional.
Transformational Lesson Observation
- It was good to be challenged on both outlook/attitude and language we use.
- Feel more confident to evaluate impact and feedback to a tutor in a way which promotes tutors to consider and improve impact.
- Liked the learning momentum graph.
- This was very exciting to be involved in – I hope we take this on because it focusses on impact – not ‘judging’ tutors’ performance.
- [I will] Encourage teachers to focus on how their sessions make a difference to the learners and not how many boxes they’ve ticked.
- Loved the obs of the lessons – allowed us to practise.
- As inquisitive as a… cat – meerkat.
- Has given me a different perspective. My approach would be more collaborative and learner-centred, not about ‘stuff’.
- Lots to think about – food for thought. Some excellent examples of terminology to use.
- Challenging the mindset of OTLA.
- Fast-pace, but informative – thought provoking!
- A shift in focus was good. More emphasis on the learner and the impact on the learner.
- It was interesting to see the impact of using different vocabulary.
- Unmissable!
Tricked out Tutorials
- I like the idea of helping learners to fly.
- I found the video clip most useful.
- More clarity with learners on what change they want to see by the end of the course/session.
- Take time to discuss progress on all courses.
- I will alter objectives to show the journey across the carpet.
- Work out strategies/practices to achieve what I want to achieve by encouraging the learner to talk.
- Make learners more curious.
- Using open questions in reviews and letting learners identify what they need to do in their learning.
