FLIPPED LEARNING; BLOOM’S TAXONOMY

Knowledge; Video to watch / Chapter to read / website to study / Photosynth to explore by students prior to lesson via Class Site

Understanding; Concepts / Knowledge / Skill.A task, quiz, discussion or survey etc based on knowledge is set via Class Site and completed

Interactions / Responses made by students inform teacher of learning / misconceptions via class site and therefore modifies lesson – enabling targeted focus

Application / Analysis / Synthesis / Evaluation; Class Session builds upon or is constructed from responses, feedback and interactions from the Flipped work set on the Class Site moving towards higher tariff work

Linking it to something that is already familiar to staff has meant that it provides a context and a form of discipline to help them understand it’s role and benefit.

LITERACY FOR LIFE (L4L)

Literacy for Life is an integrated, thematic, competency based curriculum created for our Key Stage 3 students. It is delivered through the principles of

project based learning and is technology rich.

Page 14: Driving Digital Fluency, Kirsty Tonks, Shireland October 2013

Students know where they are and where they need to go next.

Staff and students track all competencies.

DETAILED STUDENT KNOWLEDGE

Page 15: Driving Digital Fluency, Kirsty Tonks, Shireland October 2013

Advanced levels insist on students knowing the information to teach to others.

REINFORCED KNOWLEDGE

Invaluable as we move to an environment where knowledge is at the end of a course.

Page 16: Driving Digital Fluency, Kirsty Tonks, Shireland October 2013

We collapse our timetable once a week for a day and every half term for a week.They deliver and reinforce key outputs and also have an emphasis on key literacies including digital literacy.
