| = Running the first workshop =
| |
|
| |
| What are the issues with primary education in your country? Why are people invited to the OER4schools programme?
| |
|
| |
| What are teachers’ expectations (attend for the whole year - starting off weekly)? Some people will be concerned with big picture, others with detail. Agree the day of the week for f2f meetings.
| |
|
| |
| Some expectations about what a workshop should be like. Modelling activities in the workshop on activities planned for the classroom. (Modelling participation and interactivity at all levels.)
| |
|
| |
|
| |
| Introduce this resource and the topics within it
| |
|
| |
| introduce strategies to incorporate interactive elements (things you might say, things you might do)
| |
|
| |
| thinking about your own practice<nowiki>; </nowiki>do you think you’d like to try one of these new approaches?
| |
|
| |
| Do you want a buddy system (pairs of teachers matched by grade or subject)?
| |
|
| |
| '''Running the first session. '''
| |
|
| |
| What are the educator notes here?
| |
|
| |
| Setting up the room - remove tables? Chairs in circle? Tables arranged in islands?
| |
|
| |
| What props are needed? Sheets of papers and pens? May be hard to find for some schools.
| |
|
| |
| '''Ice breaker'''
| |
| Welcome everybody to the workshop.
| |
|
| |
| You start the workshop with an “ice breaker”.
| |
|
| |
| We would suggest first name basis.
| |
|
| |
| '''Icebreaker 1''' (for a group of colleagues):
| |
|
| |
| Stand up and sing a song together.
| |
|
| |
| '''Icebreaker 2 '''(for group of participants who don’t know each other well):
| |
|
| |
| People say one or two words that describe themselves (such as “funny”, “sociable”, “shy”).
| |
|
| |
| OR Chat in pairs, and then introduce your neighbour to the group.
| |
|
| |
|
| |
| '''Icebreaker 3 '''(for either colleagues or strangers):
| |
|
| |
| * people form themselves into groups of 3
| |
| * they have a conversation for no more than 3 min, 1 min each, on a specified topic, e.g. their favourite foods, what activity they are glad to be rid of and don't have to tackle today, their worst fantasy about what could go wrong as a consequence of the workshop...
| |
| * facilitator claps their hands after each minute to signal changeover<nowiki>; </nowiki>after 3 min, groups dissolve and form new groups<nowiki>; </nowiki>facilitator changes the topic at this point and after every 3 min until everyone has spoken to everyone else
| |
| * people have to stand up the whole time and move around - it is very energising, normally beginning quite quietly and ending up very loud!
| |
| * the next activity might connect with this icebreaker, for example asking volunteers to report back on their worst fantasy about what could go wrong in their classroom as a consequence of the professional development programme?!
| |
|
| |
| Need a list of topics here - workshop facilitator to decide these in advance.
| |
|
| |
| Consider whether there is a hierarchy among the participants?
| |
|
| |
|
| |
| To continue the workshop, present the aims of Unit 1.
