The day is
aimed at colleagues charged with developing and
integrating ICT across a whole school and colleagues who are
interested in seeing how ICT can engage learners and enhance
learning.
The day will
give ample opportunity to see how ICT is fully integrated
within lesson planning across all subjects and lessons at
Cramlington. Delegates will have a tour of the school to see
how we have provided ICT access in a range of innovative
ways.
You will also
see how we are beginning to take advantage of the 89% of
time that students are not in front of teachers by utilising
our VLE. |
The day is
aimed at colleagues charged with developing, implementing or
teaching a Learning to Learn course. Alvin Toffler said that
the illiterate of the 21st Century will be those that cannot
learn, unlearn, and relearn.
Cramlington
Community High School has take this to heart and runs a
discrete Learning to Learn course in 4 hours per week of
curriculum time for all year nine students (our intake
year).
This Learning
to Learn course goes far beyond mind mapping and memory
techniques and seeks to develop learner skills and
dispositions. We aim to produce autonomous thinkers and
learners. The Learning to Learn course is designed to be a
first step in developing learning to learn across the whole
curriculum.
The Open day
will explore our journey towards where we are now and some
of the ups and downs along the way.
There will be
an opportunity to talk to students on the Learning to Learn
course and to visit Learning to Learn lessons. |
