Remember the Student in your Pedagogy

When did you last…

Not think like an adult? (without constraint)


Look at things with a curious mind?


Find a challenge for every student?


Place yourself in a learner’s shoes?


Ask a student what they want to learn?


Think about the impact of a Target Grade/Level?


Think that adolescent learning is different from your own?


Ask a student what they want to achieve?


Let the students lead the learning?


Ask a student why they answered the way they did?


Let yourself wonder with the students?


Wonder what a student thinks in your classroom?


Get wildly creative and see things differently?


Take time to reflect?


Think about the difference between teaching and learning?


Take a risk with what you teach?


Teach with passion?


Try something different?


Not follow the system?


Teach with a ‘Growth Mindset’?


Just have fun teaching? (and maybe freak out a random kid)


Think what others see in your presentation/lesson?


Act as the ‘Meddler in the Middle’,rather than a ‘Sage on the Stage’ or a ‘Guide on the Side’?


Teach a lesson backwards, Plenary first?


Give homework that leads into a lesson, not out of one?


Think of the student first, not your teaching?
