@EdenStokes12 Thankyou for sharing! Fantastic to see how this integrated approach is impacting both children and the aged.

[ABC Education @ABCEducationAU]

For over 40 years this school has been #teaching in 2 languages. It creates its own learning material in the #Indigenous Murrinh-patha language. #ReconciliationWeek #IYIL2019

My research into #intergenerationallearning has opened my eyes to the opportunities that exist for shared community learning experiences for all ages.Both the young & old can learn from each others' experiences in ways that have huge social & cognitive benefits for both.#UoNTeach

@MrBrettlad Wow,talk about education that's 'out of this world!'😉Check out ISS Live Earth Viewer to see (in live time)what the astronauts see from the International Space Station!Its a very cool reminder of how big our earth is,yet how tiny it is in the context of space! #getsomeperspective

[Phoebe @MissHickson]

The elderly are such a rich source of authentic knowledge!My own experiences with fellow church members has helped me to gain valuable insight into personal perspectives & they have been true role models to me in my youth in their lives & faith.#UoNTeach

[Phoebe @MissHickson]

Significant #intergenerationallearning occurs in the church community through opportunities for teaching across generations,#intergenerational programs such as services,volunteering & programs.These have many relational & cognitive benefits for both the old and young.#UoNTeach

@Erin_C_123 I agree Erin!While technology can be implemented as a useful,enabling tool in developing these skills,it must be utilised in a way that supports the application & progression of the knowledges and understandings required for 21st learners to become active & informed citizens.

[Phoebe @MissHickson]

Churches provide a wonderful opportunity for people to mix with others of all ages.#intergenerationalfaith,has many benefits for faith sharing & strengthening of Christian communities that transcend the barriers of age as modelled in the Bible #UoNTeach #intergenerationallearning

[Phoebe @MissHickson]

What are some of the ways your interactions with an older or younger person has helped you in your understanding of a topic, skill or general knowledge?Does anyone have any specific examples of something they've learnt from someone in a different age bracket to them?#UoNTeach

[Phoebe @MissHickson]

Another fantastic way to bring generations together in a meaningful, mutually beneficial way!My research of #intergenerationllearning has revealed there are so many opportunities for it to be embedded into schools with enriching learning experiences and opportunities. #UonTeach

Exciting news that we are able to announce today! Read more on our website https://t.co/syZ10hf6OS

@jesse_richards Without understanding the patterns & impacts of events in the past, won't be able to understand our present nor make predictions for future trends.Learning about the past,particularly through the personal experiences of those who lived it, is vital.#UoNTeach #intergenerational

@teaching_miss_h @HospitalKoala Such an awesome place to get close and personal with our own, unique Australian animals and to witness firsthand the impact of human carelessness and lack of care for our precious environment!

[Phoebe @MissHickson]

@MrBrettlad @78MrsG I agree!It also provides personal perspectives & insight that helps build empathy.Talking to an older person about their experiences over time is like having your own #livinghistory!#intergenerationallearning helps bring communities of individuals together in this way!#UonTeach

[Phoebe @MissHickson]

@footballmdm Wow!Fantastic to see such a creative resource being implemented in local schools. Would love to see this in action!

[Phoebe @MissHickson]

My research into #intergenerationallearning has helped me to understand how the sharing of knowledge between generations is so vital for children in their education to become active & informed citizens,& has numerous health,wellbeing& cognitive benefits for the elderly.

@jesse_richards Such an informative and sobering site.Learning about our nations’ history,in particular the wars,help to shape our students’ understanding of how we got to where we are now & their place in it https://t.co/lscVaNhSeY can also help build empathetic understanding. #UonTeach

[Phoebe @MissHickson]

Interacting with people other than carers is important for the wellbeing of older people by helping to maintain a sense of purpose,dignity,& a meaningful connection to the community around & beyond care facilities.#intergenerationallearning can help provide this. #UonTeach

[My Home Life England @MyHomeLifeUK]

"I'd just like to have a conversation with someone that hasn't seen me naked". A quote taken from a resident and a powerful reminder to all of us, that having connections with new people who are not just from the care environment can really support older peoples wellbeing.

[Phoebe @MissHickson]

@jmbar294 How clever! I���d love to put these into action in my own school environment and teaching!

[Phoebe @MissHickson]

This is a clever little strategy to help teachers & students to critically reflect on their teaching & on their own professional learning,thus determining future direction.This helps students to develop self-direction & regulation over learning & metacognitive skills.#UonTeach

[Phoebe @MissHickson]

What a colourful and engaging way to encourage children to think creatively and critically whilst being physically active! #UonTeach
