What is interactive teaching? Bloom's taxonomy etc. illustrated
Principles of interactive teaching:
* recognising children as individuals ''actively'' engaged in interacting with the world, rather than passive recipients of knowledge
* assessing learning needs and tailoring teaching to the child’s current level of knowledge and understanding (“scaffolding” or “child-centred” approach)
* “multimodal” interaction and expression – using different modes of presenting material and expressing ideas (drawing, video, audio as well as conventional texts) to engage learners
* higher-order thinking – encouraging skills like analysis, synthesis, evaluation, sorting and categorising
* improvable ideas – providing an environment where ideas can be critiqued and refined
* diversity of ideas – exploring ideas and related/contrasting ideas, encouraging different ideas
* building directly on others’ ideas to create joint knowledge products
* democracy in knowledge building – everybody participates and is a legitimate contributor to knowledge
* learner agency and peer support – encouraging students to take responsibility for their own and one another’s learning
