  7. Using “You Tube” to deepen teaching activities Go to You Tube and type in: “Shaping the way we teach English” for a variety of classroom based videos which could be helpful for all curriculum areas www.youtube.com Particularly good is Module 14 “Reflective Teaching”

  8. So, what’s this about Learning Styles?A practical approach… • Try the following site which has a simple survey for students (and you!) to identify learning styles. • Valuable to remind us that we probably teach to the style we are aligned to which may not suit some students! • Explanations and how to adapt to maximise learning opportunities also clearly explained www.engr.ncsu.edu/learningstyles/ilsweb.html (for Questionaire only) www.engr.ncsu.edu/learningstyles The above aspect of this website gives descriptions of all 4 Learning Styles and explanations of how learners can modify their approach to maximise every day in the classroom WARNING-Many parents of students have also discovered lots about their learning that they didn’t know before!

  9. Developing HumourWilliam Somerset Maugham 1874-1965 “Don’t take yourself too seriously! To do this you need to be able to look at yourself from the outside and be at the same time, spectator and actor in the pleasant comedy of life.”
