Paraphrasing Maya Angelou...students will forget what you said, what you did but will remember how you made them feel. Good teaching is built on the understanding of the relationships underpinning teaching and learning...just one facet of inspirational teaching/excellent practice
From taking part in the SIE specialism for the last 3 years I have learnt so much valuable knowledge on inclusion and leadership. It will benifit me when teaching as an NQT. I feel empowered and confident to go on and face whatever lies ahead for me in education #si401
In this week's #si401 lecture with Anna Logan we learnt how to best interact and collaborate with ISA. I think this will be vital knowledge throughout my teaching career.
At this weeks #si401 session with Anna Logan it was very interesting to examine the language used to describe ISA internationally. I never considered the affects of the languaged used on the person and their role.
Looking forward to our final SIE lecture with @logananna11 where we will be learning about leadership and working with SNA's. This will be particularly important as we embark on our careers as NQT's. It's v likely that we will we working with SNA's next year!#si401 @fiona_king_
At last week #si401 lecture with @fiona_king_ we learnt how to persuade and approach stake holder at schools with our ideas and knowledge. I believe that this specialism module and the knowledge that I have gain will benifit me when communicating with stakeholders as an NQT.
Today in our SIE lecture we were looking at how to use UDL in our teaching. I know I'm going to find this website really helpful in guiding my teaching & planning when on placement & into my career. #si401 @fiona_king_

@EimearDaly4 @fiona_king_ I complete agree Eimear. That statement really stood out for me too. It made me think that even when change is slow on a system level, that we are still making a difference on the children's lives.
In our previous #si401 lecture with @fiona_king_ we discussed the role of different stakeholders with regards to change, and how we can use them to implument change in a school. I look forward to bringing the information from this lecture with me when I qualify as an NQT.
During our lecture last week #si401 the topic of BEd4 students being unclouded (King et al., 2012) ...we are enthusiastic and possibly naive. There will be a lot thrown at us as NQTs and reality can become clouded but it is clear we are excited to become leaders of the classroom.
I found our last #si401 lecture to be engaging. We examined passed experiences on school placement where there was an equity challenge in the classroom. I really enjoyed how as a class we shared and collaborated to discuss ways to resolve the inequity. @fiona_king_
From attending the LAI conference as part of the #si401 module I have gained new knowledge. I found it really helpful and engaging. It gave me a new perspective on EAL and literacy as whole. I am really excited to implument my new learning when I am out as as n NQT.
In the last #si401 lecture I had the pleasure of collaborating with other members of the specialism to create a lesson plan for a particular class. Through that experience I learned how to differentiation for different children and different needs. This will benifit me as a NQT
We had the wonderful oppurtunity of putting inclusion into practice as we created and presented lesson plans based on specific class profiles to their class teachers. The experience of sharing and listening to each others inclusive practice was insightful. #si401 @fiona_king_
In the last #si401 session each group presented a lesson plan based of a class profile. This was a great opportunity for our class to share our ideas with each other. From this I learned new ways of creating inclusion in the classroom and great lesson ideas.
