It was a good way to share ideas and make them instantly viewable. click here to see the review questions This audioboo reflects what teachers think about problems with correcting learners' errors.

Random Name Generator

ken robinson

This is an interesting clip with Ken talking about a range of issues relating to creativity in schools. I used it with a PGCE class to lead into a lesson on how we learn and how to optimise the conditions for learning.
