The summer holidays are over, so let’s welcome in the new school year with some audio cheer. I have dug into my podcast archives to find five episodes that should help you hit the ground running.
Enjoy!
1. If you are a teacher looking for some inspiration for that first lesson with a new class…
Then check out this episode, featuring contributions from the likes of Adam Boxer, Andrew Percival, and Jo Facer, about what their first lesson with a new class looks like.
2. If you are a teacher looking for some strategies for improving student behaviour…
Then check out this conversation with Mark Dowley and Ollie Lovell, the authors of the excellent Classroom Management handbook.
3. If you are a head of department looking to improve results…
Then check out my conversation with award-winning head of department, Jo Morgan, where she shares the 10 strategies she and her team used to produce some outstanding GCSE maths results.
4. If you are interested in trying a different way of teaching…
Then check out my series of episodes with Kris Boulton about Atomisation. This conversation is a good introduction, and then you can dive into my monthly conversations with Kris and maths teacher Lee Wheeler, who is experimenting with Kris’ methods.
5. If you want to know more about the potential benefits and problems of AI in terms of teaching and learning…
Then check out my monthly series with AI experts Neil Almond and Jaems Radburn. Our first conversation is a good place to start.
