Learning to Learn
June 23rd, 2008 by misterel
Our school has been a tad late in the introduction of a learning to learn program, but as of next year we start to roll out phase 1 to year 7’s. We have managed to acquire a package from a company called Alite and so far it looks pretty good.
I have managed to blag my way onto the Learning to Learn team and our main aim at the moment is trying to work out how to cram 60 hours of lessons into a 38 lesson slot.
The scheme is broken down into 3 main sections:
- iLearn – getting pupils to understand how they learn as individuals
- iTeam – geting pupils to understand how to learn in groups or teams
- 21st Century learners – Using ICT effectively to aid learning
Eash of these sections has a 20 lesson SoL. However, our cunning plan is to deliver the first 2 as part of the L2L lessons in yr 7 and deliver the 21st Century learners as part of their ICT lessons. As the ICT Coordinator I think this is a fantastic idea. The 21st Century learner module will give substance to the ICT SoL and also help my team and the year 7s to have a better understanding of how to use ICT effectively and efficiently.
