Episode 25: Discussion about 'Go On, Bore 'Em' -- Starting the lesson
November 26, 2007 06:46 AM PST
In my book "Go On, Bore 'Em: How to make ICT lessons excruciatingly dull", I looked at the ten most common sources of the problem. In this series of podcasts, Elaine (my wife) and I discuss my motivation for writing the book, and try to dig a little deeper into its underlying philosophy. In this first episode in the series, we explore the first chapter, called "The starter activity". The way the lesson starts is of paramount importance, and plays a huge role in determining whether the lesson is going to be good, ie a vibrant, learning environment and experience, or as dull as ditchwater. The music in the podcast is Darryl Allen's Funktown Groove, from the Podsafe Music Network. If you'd like to buy the book, it's available from here for £4.99 (around $10) + postage. |
