Weymouth College
Assessment & the Art of Lazy Teaching
- Finally prizing the lid off a box of “useful things” and finding the usefulness of the beads & jewels inside, moving the box to the kitchen table to use more often.
- Taking the blinkers off a cynical horse.
- Waking up and finding a box of chocolates.
- Breath of fresh air. Nice to have some face-to-face training from an outside source.
- Excellent fun, informative and useful.
- “It’s not about me (teacher), it’s about you (learner)!”
- I am looking forward to adapting some of my future lessons that I have taught the same way for years.
- The assessment strategies – using multiple assessment strategies – and how easy to plan them.
- A better understanding of what the purpose of assessment is and further tools.
- That lessons should be more focused on learners’ understanding through work they complete rather than teacher-led.
- To not be scared to be more versatile in my assessment strategies.
- Research lessons. Try new things more often and intentionally.
- Enlightening, thought-provoking.
- Really want to integrate into lessons.
- This was absolutely inspiring – by far the best, if not the only staff development session – Ever.
- Reminded me that I am doing a good job and my methods and ideas are good!!
- A rollercoaster of fun! Loved it!
- Bird in a cage, door opened…
- Excellent session, great subject expertise and a real eye opening session. Fab!
- Thinking about the ‘difference’ and not the ‘stuff’. New assessment strategies.
- I have taken away new learning assessments that I will use within my teaching.
- Write a learner experience not lesson plan.
- Would say it is a meal well worth waiting for as I enjoyed it a lot.
- I am starting my teaching journey so felt like a sponge absorbing all information.
- The concept of formalising ‘RESEARCH LESSONS’ to experiment with new ideas.
- Move away from teach (tell) and check. How do you want them to be different at the end of the lesson?
- It was like a box of chocolates … I didn’t know what was coming next!
