  1. Action Research Palava http://palava.wikispaces.com/

  2. Some of our interests • Effective use of exercise books • Revision strategies and intervention • Modelling • Cognitive dissonance

  3. Youtube and You in the classroom A little light relief ….

  4. Your task …. Give it a go

  5. The ScienceVideoBank • This was used to achieve the following: • Reinforce microwaves for cooking / communication • Generate the real need for “an experiment” • Point out that the whole thing was a marketing hoax created by a headset manufacturer (HSW) • Discuss how it could be faked (HSW) • Discuss the reliability of news sources (e.g. preparation for the “science in the news” task)

  6. The ScienceVideoBank Miranda Creed-Miles Sean Moore

  8. The ScienceVideoBank Evolution of Thinking... What makes an ideal video clip as a lesson component? Something which cannot be done in class Short, sharp, and thought provoking Humorous and/or attention grabbing Connects with the real world and shows the application of science But what of the many clips which simply show a teacher teaching or repeating a common class demo or practical?

  9. The ScienceVideoBank Initially dismissed but... Revision or catch up work “plan B” when equipment fails or when the results are unexpected For “active” self-learning lessons As a homework or virtual learning resource (VLE) Could this begin to form an “alternative video SoW” for each topic?

  10. Appetisers Starters / Plenaries How have we used video clips? Bringing theory to practical Plan B Homeworks

  12. The ScienceVideoBank • Thought provoking recap-starter • An example from Year 8 Sound & Hearing • Having taught sound failing to travel through a vacuum... The next lesson began with an explosive Sci-Fi clip..... Asked what is wrong with this?......

  13. The ScienceVideoBank • Adding challenge • V = f • Lionel Ritchie http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9UiUsA_4fC0 • What is happening?

  14. The ScienceVideoBank • Taking a lab experiment out of this world • The Hammer and the feather... • Bridging Theory to Practical • “Speed” Year 9... 100m clip • “Plan B” • When Elodea plays hard to get.....

  15. So do you want more?
