@rossdotparker My school at the moment does one-week timetables with an average of 4 SL and 5 to 6 HL sessions per week.

[David Brown @DavebZa]

To all IB teachers: how is the DP timetable organized? One week or two week block? 5, 6 or 7 HL lessons per cycle? 3 or 4 SL ones? It seems there's a huge variance in the schools I've seen, and I'd like to see the range here!

@rossdotparker Thanks for this! I'm debating how to make this into a deeper poll -- and all results are being collated as we speak!

@rossdotparker Thanks @rossdotparker! And thanks to @ICHK_edu & yr.8 students who opened their classroom of free learning! It was an education!

I've found #students are more receptive to feedback when it starts and ends on a positive note. How about you? #teacher

[David Brown @DavebZa]

@rossdotparker Sounds good - I'll be there! When should I arrive? at 13:10?

[David Brown @DavebZa]

@rossdotparker @ICHK_edu What times? Morning or afternoon? Thursday afternoon next week or the week after could be good.

[David Brown @DavebZa]

@rossdotparker @ICHK_edu Great food for thought there! I'm with the EDB. I'd love to come out to ICHK sometime!

[David Brown @DavebZa]

Just In Time learning. Will this help with motivation and achievement? Great concept from @rossdotparker

[David Brown @DavebZa]

Great talk from @rossdotparker on making teaching great.

[Ross Parker @rossdotparker]

Most humans, do not learn things that they don’t need to know now. Most teachers conveniently ignore this. True?#edchat

You develop great teachers...

That simple. #greatteachers

So what kind of #teacher are YOU: more the artist or the scientist? #elearning
