57

58 Aside : You need to know Teachers should work AS a team not IN a team. KEY : They are perfectly behaved for me… We are ALL responsible for the outcomes V difficult – competition HUGELY important

59 Aside : You need to know Teacher accounts for FACEBOOK are banned Hugely competitive Skews you idea of discipline and teaching Likes the most important thing Distance

60 Five Key Techniques VERY quick summary

61 BASIC Idea It is NOT OK to have a student disconnect in your lesson. Two types : unable / unwilling : very different No sleeping. No reading another subject No writing something that has nothing to do with the lesson No WhatsApp 1

62 Developed Idea What to do when a student opts out “Please repeat the question” “I don’t know” “No idea” Help them : give them clues Start easier : How much sugar will I need for 6.76 litres of lemonade / How many buses will be needed Move away and back Get another student to cue : What does Fadi need to solve this / What is he missing? 1

63 BASIC Idea Do NOT accept half right answers (Wake up call to me) Insist on completely correct 2

64 Developed Idea Only the exact, complete answer is OK Pain in the neck / move on! They will NEVER get the right answer Push through until the end. Praise but prod. “Peninsula” 2

65 “When the water indents into the land”

71 BASIC Idea Move them past the initial answer Follow up Push them further 3

72 Developed Idea Make them work harder. Reward for correct answer is another question! How or why Another similar question. Repetition. Evidence? 3

73 BASIC Idea They have to write it like OTHERS want it VERY important / Yassine Very hard 4

74 Developed Idea Handwriting IS important Layout IS important {Junior – Class 6} Using the correct words in the right form is important I am lazy at this. Stop answer half way!!!! Impatient! Seniors are SLOPPY. Because some of us are lazy. Marking. Audible format : Do NOT answer a question with just ONE student. 4

75 BASIC Idea Do not try to apologize for your subject / students Boring “parts” [NOTE : do not allow your students to use the word boring!] 5

76 Developed Idea Let’s get through this. Boring but necessary. Blaming the content, “They said we have to do this” Dumbing down 5

77 Developed Idea Apologies for Students – They will never understand this You can do this – Work hard Teacher works harder on “boring” content 5

78 5 Professor Power 20 years later

79 The lesson? There is no such thing as boring content. In the hands of a great teacher who can find the way in, the material students need to master to succeed and grow is exciting, interesting, and inspiring, even if as teachers we sometimes doubt that we can make it so.
