This event on the 23/03/2010 at Institute of Education will focus on extending the range of teaching and learning strategies within the context of the extension modules for Triple Science GCSEs. It will provide examples to promote active engagement in the classroom, enabling learners to develop higher order thinking skills. N.B. contexts will be drawn from a range of topics common to all specifications.
A key feature of the course would be the effective use of five teaching and learning models to encourage active learning - these are referenced in the course publication ‘Teaching Triple Science: GCSE Chemistry’
The outline for the day is:
Session 1: The use of teaching models to increase challenge, improve conversion L6 to A*A and to meet Classroom Quality Standards (CQS) for G&T.
Session 2: Progression in Chemistry - using the Secondary National Strategy framework to support planning for appropriate progression in a key idea.
Session3: Using the Triple Science website, www.triplescience.org.uk to support teaching extension modules in Chemistry.
Session 4: Enhancing learning by the use of ICT i.e. use or PhotoStory, Movie maker, Podcasting or computer simulations.
Session 5: Use of other resources to engage students within the contexts of the extension modules in Chemistry e.g. Leading in Learning, Upd8, AKSIS, SATIS, SNS Interactive Teaching.
