Learning Issues and Solutions Database (The RED LISD)
Bolton College
- Enlightened.
- Able, aspirational, motivated, like being a new tutor again with a desire to problem solve.
- A ray of sunlight peaking out of a cloud on a cold day.
- Inspirational, thought-provoking.
- Excited about possibilities, feel so many barriers before we can be outstanding though.
- It was a river of knowledge, allowing my brain to flow with new ideas.
- I was treated as a grown up, collaborative discussions, voice listened to.
- Gyre-widening (see W. B. Yeats: The Second Coming).
- It is fit for purpose, simple and efficient.
- I love it. I would love to see it as an approach for OTLAs.
- Easy to read, useful and will try in lessons.
I like how it is structured and gives the teacher a step-by-step support. - Set-up really well. Easily accessible and easy to navigate.
- It is quite clear and easy to follow. It supports you and takes you on a journey through the thinking and development process. The case studies were useful and the more the resource is populated with other cases the more useful it will become. Sharing is so important and especially between departments.
- I like the colour coded headings and the clear structure, easy to follow and definitions helped me to decide what the actual problem/issue was. It helped to reflect on what my contribution to the issue might be but in a no blame way. Therefore easier to admit and discuss.
- Clear, demanding a next step/decision/narrowing/focussing.
- I think that the format of each section is clear and follows a process that allows you to think through the issue you have selected, and what could be the cause of the issue before exploring the strategies.
- It encourages sharing of best practice within the organisation and both offers support to those with issues as well as offering praise and reward for those who are best serving their learners.
- Great, lets us problem solve without being told one method and gives us the confidence to say that it can be solved.
- Wonderful, collaborative and informed by practice.
- To have the lessons seen and heard without prejudice is really refreshing. I have already included many ideas, from Tony feedback and his blogs and lesson.
- It is good to look at learning issues in this way, methodically…seeing the problem and the reasons behind it helps to find a solution.
- I like it and would use it. I like the links that take you through to further information.
- Felt a little upset by the barriers that I found myself coming up against that I can usually mentally overcome in the moment/when filling out a form because of the demand of professionalism it suggested.
- I like that the approach is a collaborative one, using real examples from across the college. I hope that it will inspire the college to further embrace cross departmental working to share ideas and strategies for learning. This will motivate staff to try new ideas, and be more comfortable with colleagues in their classroom without the fear of failure. I also like that it will be a working document for staff to add to so it can evolve.
- My learning outcomes will never look the same again. I’ll be tapping into those attitudinal changes.
- I think it has been extremely useful and has made a big difference to people’s attitudes. I have noticed that when Tony said he could solve how to make learners never be late again in submitting work to a deadline, many staff had a negative attitude and were quite defensive. This makes me see how the tutors need to be open minded as I know that’s how they want the learners to be. “Crossing the carpet”. Thank you for your lovely compliments of my session.
- I love this approach. It’s teacher supportive and friendly.
- Thank you very much for the session 🙂
- Some really useful ideas. This got me thinking that there might be solutions. The college needs to be supportive in their implementation. At the moment it feels like we are being swamped with admin tasks and teaching and learning is taking second place.
