Subject: Tips and good practice - a gigantic collaboration
Hello everyone
Last week I attended a training session and afterwards teachers and staff began to discuss the session and offer their own views/good practice and I felt I learned even more. It got me thinking about how sometimes a fellow JISCmailer will ask if anyone has some good tips for e.g. teaching a student with Asperger’s Syndrome. And, sometimes a document will be shared and at other times there is no response (although of course this might be due to the fact the advice is being shared the two parties or that people are just too busy to respond).
When no one responds, I often wonder if some people are a little reluctant to share a document they have slaved over and perfected over the years (I confess I have been guilty of this, for a few minutes anyway)? I feel that this reaction is natural, and there might also be a little part of me that thinks my document isn’t worth sending as there is probably better advice out there.
I am sure others must have felt this way – so I thought each month we could pick a topic, let’s say Asperger’s Syndrome – practical tips for teachers – and ask everyone to submit their best tip (with an example of how it worked/helped?). Imagine the expertise out there? The great practice that is happening? We could all benefit from it and in turn so could our teachers and students.
I am happy to compile the finished document (that would be unique, not a copied and pasted version from the Internet – not that any of you do that)and send it out to all. We could publish a JISCmail online book of tips/advice….sorry getting carried away now.
I would be interested in your thoughts.
Regards, Paul
