Practitioners’ corner: The game is never won by standing in any one place for too long

In our final session from AmplifyFE we invite you to join a true community session, our Practitioners’ Corner hosted by the AmplifyFE Community Space. Curious what it’s all about? Read on and join us for this fun and inspiring session.

Teachers have stood at the front of the classroom since the advent of the education system. This is mainly due to the presentation technology available being a tether rather than a facilitator of learning. Technology has now advanced, so why haven’t presentation methods?

In this session Chloë Hynes, Community Lead at AmplifyFE, and Chris Barnett, Maths Teacher at Sandwell College, will share practical approaches and fresh ideas to help you get away from lecturing to learners.

It’s time to evolve. This webinar will move you. Welcome aboard…
