Comments Off on Memorable Classes in School – The Creative Arts
Throughout my time at school (both in primary and secondary), the most memorable classes for me were ones that emphasised on skills primarily used in the creative arts. Be this cutting cardboard with Stanley knives to make human sized dinosaurs or presenting wall posters describing Orkney’s role in World War 2. My favourite experience at […]

Comments Off on Positive, Fair and Consistent
The values task proved that a teacher who uses negative words and treats individuals different can cause an individual to feel upset, become disengaged and can begin to doubt their ability leading them to lack self-confidence. I experienced these feelings myself during this group task. The task involved 4 different groups within the room, 2 … Continue reading “Positive, Fair and Consistent”

Comments Off on Reflection of Values Workshop
From participating in the values workshop surrounding inequalities, it became evident how we are so unaware of the impact. We can become so involved in our own personal situations we are unaware of those around us. This was highlighted throughout this workshop. We started by being seated at 4 different tables with 8 peers. The […]

Comments Off on Workshop no.1 – inequality
Looking back on Tuesday’s workshop I realise how much fun and how interesting I actually found it. I was placed in the lowest resource group and too many people’s surprise including the lecturer I was very happy with the outcome we produced as a group. I was questioned if I was angry about being given […]

On Tuesday, I had a values workshop which initially I thought was to get our views on ways to improve how information is handed out at the University. As the workshop continued I thought it was about creatively working with the materials and tools which we were handed as very group had a different amount […]

Comments Off on Values Workshop Reflection
The first values workshop provided a very thought-provoking experience with the core focus surrounding structural inequalities. Unaware of this, we participated in a very cunning practice which unknowingly allowed us to experience these inequalities first-hand. Upon arrival the class was split evenly into 4 groups of approximately 8. Within these groups we were presented with […]

Comments Off on Values Reflection
The values workshop taught me how your mood and behaviour can negatively or positively impact children, their behaviour and learning. The activity we done consisted of us being split into four groups and being given a pack of resources. We each received a different amount of resources and were all treated differently. Group one received … Continue reading “Values Reflection”

Comments Off on Reflecting Upon Resources
In schools children come from all different backgrounds and circumstances and in this became very real to me during the task. Every group being given different resources wasn’t immediately noticeable to me but after presenting our ideas, for something to make for a first year student, I realised that my group had a lot less […]

Comments Off on Profound Understanding of Fundamental Mathematics (PUFM)
When I was first asked to describe what profound understanding of fundamental mathematics (PUFM) meant, I immediately thought it meant being a maths genius. It sounded very complicated. However it soon become clear that this was not true. Liping Ma created four universal principles that would enable a teacher to have a profound understanding of […]

Comments Off on Should children be treated differently from each other? The answer is ‘no’.
During the Values: Self, Society and The Professions module, we took part in an eye opening workshop where the class was split into 4 groups and were given an envelope full of materials. When the envelope was placed onto our tables, we were told not to touch or have a look to see what was […]

Comments Off on I Don’t Understand
Mathematics. It is a subject that fills most people with fear, dread and overwhelming anxiety. A subject that most will claim is too difficult to comprehend and only for those who are very smart. I have been in this mind-set for a long time, seeing a maths question and feeling that it was impossible to […]

Comments Off on Workshop on inequalities which grabbed my attention.
My first workshop I took part in from my Values: Self, Society and The Professions module, with my classmates and lecturer, was on structural inequalities. The workshop was done in a very clever way. We all were split into groups with approximately 6 people in each group. We were given an envelope with certain resources in […]

Comments Off on Social (In)Justice in the classroom!
On reflection, I really enjoyed group 4’s Seminar with Gillian last Tuesday. I’m not sure I was enjoying it at the time though as I was in one of the under-resourced groups!! The whole session was designed to subtly explore ideas around structural inequalities and social justice which I felt it did extremely well. The […]
