The modern classroom

00:30 - Flipped learning: Access to classwork in advance - students are introduced to the learning material before class. This gives them a chance to learn at their own pace or in their preferred style with classroom time being used to deepen understanding or project based work.

01:33 - Blended classroom: Tradition meets technology - technology is a tool that should be used to support and amplify the teaching and learning experience not replace it. Easy access to a wide range of resources can greatly improve how students are being taught.

Social media platforms are also great places to find learning resources and ideas. Why not follow #education to see how other teachers are using technology in the classroom.

05.13 - Space: The learner's habitat - approaches to creating a learning space that accommodates different learning and teaching styles.

Top tips -
