With regard to the clip that you have just
seen, do you think the experienced teachers are
successful in getting the teacher to think deeply
about the critical features of her lesson?
What is critical in teaching this lesson, fingering,
hearing or visualising the finger positions?
What particular individual differences should
the teacher cater for in this lesson?
As a subject teacher, consider your own past
experience of using a teaching aid that addresses
the issue of catering for pupil diversity (try
to think of an aid other than a worksheet). Tell
your colleagues about the teaching aid, and why
you think it was productive or, perhaps, not
as productive as you had hoped and intended.
As a subject mentor, in your own subject, suggest
what issues you would raise with beginning teachers
on the use of multi-sensory experiences in your
own specialist subject, and the kind of advice
you might give. |
