Not your usual course!
Neil Atkin of exScites has got together with Bristol Grammar School for a completely different training day. Learn how to engage and challenge your students through fun and extreme activities , but without extreme risk. Embed technology to allow your motivated students show their learning and watch them go. See the training in action as you can observe students on the day being taught in radically different ways. Share ideas and get more from teachers who are still regularly teaching.
Neil works for the IOP, ASE, NSLC, OU, Hodder Stoughton, ALS ….. on changing the perceptions of science and learning. His radical approach to science can be seen on www.exScites.com but on this course there will be realistic activities for you to use in your classroom. For a more extreme view see the Beach Day organised for 13th July at Boscombe.
