Learning Motivation – designing unmissable experiences
- Sic itur ad astra (This one goes to the stars)
- A lightening bolt to engage learners.
- Emotional learning. Thinking outside the box. Maximising outcomes for students through engagements.
- Planning for learning experiences, not lesson planning!
- Exploring an unfamiliar route in a familiar land.
- Inspirational, box full of chocolates.
- Grabbing a bull by its horn.
- Induction is about social bonding. I thought it was about fire exits and canteen location.
- Capturing learners’ attention in the first instance to keep them interested.
- Bonkers ideas as starting point to overcome “I can’t”.
- Feeling inspired for January, thank you!
- I’ve had a seedling tray of ideas for a long time. After today, I think more staff will accept my seedlings and will allow them to grow.
- I am also fascinated by taking ‘negatives’ and ‘problems’ and using these as starting points. I feel pleased that my ideas are shared, it’s not just me with these feelings on education.
- As a new lecturer, this has set me up better than I have expected.
- Think bonkers and big. Be adventurous.
- Tell/Test – changing the way we deliver learning sessions.
- I think your suggestion to include these experience moments at key low points is something, intend to implement.
- Integrations M & E with the GCSE outcomes in mind. Really good.
- To remember about students not only having cognitive change but also attitudinal change from entering and leaving the classroom.
- Carpet metaphor I will question in my own practice – the 5 why’s – great method.
- More creative hands-on learning – ‘dislocation’.
- A new outfit to wear for the first day of term.
- Plan for the dull moments!
- This is the second time for me and I’ve still come away with something new.
Perfecting Progress Reviews
- Enlightening.
- Like moving from A-B with a blindfold that has been removed so we can see the whole journey.
- The “…” Discussion hit home – create an environmental where the learner can lead the discussion.
- A reminder to look wider and focus on barrier removal.
- I have learnt new ways of completing the reviews ensuring learners are taking the lead in the discussions and more autonomous.
- The session allowed you to reflect on your own progress and how to support the team to have more meaningful reviews.
- Good insight and allowed you to think further into own practices.
- I’m a believer.
- Look at lesson outcomes differently. “Stuff” Vs “making difference” is my takeaway.
- Planning and preparation.
- Try to ensure all pre-review work is complete and prepare fully with a focused outlook to help ensure outcomes.
- Very informative, thank you.
- Don’t judge a book by its cover.
- Great session.
- Learning is a journey.
- Found the session very useful and positive, Thank you.
- Learning is a puzzle, each piece a new skill or knowledge.
- Encourage learners to speak more and take ownership of summarising objectives.
- Assessors to record a sample of reviews and carry out self reflection using some of the learning from today.
- Enjoyed.
- Lifelong learning for all.
- Really interesting.
- Being given a balloon and getting lifted up.
- Enthused.
- I am looking at reviewing the 14-16 process and will use the students to inform me and develop this further.
- Thank you, very informative.
- Student-led tutorials.
- Adjusting approach.
- Use different methods as discussed.
- “Crossed the carpet”.
- Try to inform change systematically.
