Fascinating research on ‘learning efficiency’. Those who learnt word pairs faster also retained that knowledge for longer. Intriguing considerations for the classroom, testing different strategies for efficiency and more.
If you teach physics to 11 to 18 year olds then you absolutely need to get hold of a copy of Ben Rogers' superb new book "The big ideas in physics and how to teach them": https://t.co/9DxruFOaFZ. And that's not just my opinion. John Sweller describes it as "brilliant". Nuff said.
@Clc78 @sl_academy@bewlwater It was an absolute pleasure to spend this week with our new year 7. I can’t wait to see them in their new Academy uniform in September. #joinourpride Wishing you a wonderful summer.
What an amazing week @bewlwater for our @sl_academy summer school. We have learned so much this week. We now know a heron from a grebe, an oak from a birch. We know how water is cycled and the importance of conservation. Many thanks to the wonderful staff for their hard work.
Look at all these certificates! 120 @sl_academy students have been working with @domsfoodmission this week preparing meals for members of our community who need them most ❤️
Recreating a titanic moment on Bewl Water this morning and spotting some team GB 🇬🇧 rowers in training. Group 1 and 9 have been enjoying the ride on the Bewl Belle. @sl_academy@MissTasker_TSLA#summerschool18
Another great day @sl_academy summer school! Well done all the students who went horse riding @tenoaksann. We had a quite a few students who rode a horse for the first time today!! #summerschool2018
Absolutely stunning in Bewl water today with group 7 and 13. We are twitchers today! We have spotted geese, terns and grebes. @sl_academy@MissTasker_TSLA
@MrsCarlo_TSLA@sl_academy@MissTasker_TSLA It was beautiful. We learned a lot about how the reservoir was built and what it does. We saw one of the biggest plug holes in the UK with a 70ft drop down and if all the water was poured into pint bottles and stacked they would wrap around the Earth over 160 times!
