Paul then demonstrates the effect of universal indicator, before setting the class the challenge of creating three different solutions. Using different acid and alkalis and universal indicator, the students will need to create three solutions the colour of traffic lights.  The students will need to use a trial and improvement methodology to get the right colours.  Paul, a chemistry teacher at Woodkirk High School, finds that all students are able to create a red and green colour, but creating the orange solutions tests the most able students.","stream","[]","['Great Britain']","['Chemistry']","['Nonfiction television programs', 'Instructional television programs']","https://d3crmev290s45i.cloudfront.net/frames/1004321xxx/1004321389/1004321389-disc001-file001-frame00180-size-exact-570x350.jpg","https://www.remote.uwosh.edu/login?url=http://www.aspresolver.com/aspresolver.asp?MARC;1782062"

Chemistry","","7 minutes","['Great lesson ideas']","Chemistry teacher Jack Forrest carries out a number of quick and simple experiments with his year 7's to reinforce the idea that mass is always conserved.  First, students mix colourless solutions of potassium iodide and lead nitrate together, to form a bright yellow mixture, clearly showing a chemical reaction has taken place.  They weigh the solutions before and after mixing and observe that mass remains the same.  Jack then demonstrates a classic Carbonate reaction, reacting marble chips and hydrochloric acid.  Knowing mass is conserved; the group discuss why the mass decreases in this reaction.  Finally, he finishes of by cooking popcorn kernels, which increase in volume when boiled, but the mass stays the same.    Jack, a chemistry teacher at Stocksbridge High School finds these short, snappy experiments work well with lower age groups.","stream","[]","['Great Britain']","['Chemistry']","['Nonfiction television programs', 'Instructional television programs']","https://d3crmev290s45i.cloudfront.net/frames/1004321xxx/1004321388/1004321388-disc001-file001-frame00180-size-exact-570x350.jpg","https://www.remote.uwosh.edu/login?url=http://www.aspresolver.com/aspresolver.asp?MARC;1782061"

The classic thermit reaction between iron oxide and aluminium is too dangerous for the students to carry out, so instead they react zinc and copper oxide. Mixing small quantities of zinc powder and copper oxide together, then lighting the mixture, results in a bright exothermic reaction. Students can observe a chemical reaction taking place, as well as a new substance being made.Alastair, a science teacher at Stocksbridge High School, uses this experiment across the year groups. There are some safety precautions, such as using ceramic heat proof mats and ensuring students are wearing safety glasses.

Firstly Mick takes a look at the future of teaching and learning, and the impact of technology on the classroom. He then considers what children need to engage them in their learning. Then he looks at how we label young people according to attainment targets and behaviour. Mick examines the relationship between knowledge and skills and considers fruitful contexts for learning inside and outside the classroom.

This programme dramatises the real experiences of one teacher who was accused of bruising a Year 10 boy after breaking up a fight. The teacher is sent home and his colleagues told not to contact him leaving him depressed and isolated for five months before being exonerated. As the story unfolds, a panel of experts provides guidance on how the school should have acted and how the teacher should have been helped through the ordeal. Two myths are exploded during their discussions: suspension is not always a necessity and purdah is not a requirement. The experts also emphasise the importance of getting emotional and practical support.","stream","[]","[]","['Labor discipline', 'Teachers']","['Nonfiction television programs', 'Instructional television programs']","https://d3crmev290s45i.cloudfront.net/frames/1004321xxx/1004321337/1004321337-disc001-file001-frame00180-size-exact-570x350.jpg","https://www.remote.uwosh.edu/login?url=http://www.aspresolver.com/aspresolver.asp?EDIV;1737595"

The need for evidence, extensive forms, more paperwork, and not enough time  -  just some of the reasons classroom teachers don't apply. But now it's all got more straightforward, with 90 percent of applicants successful.  From September 2009, teachers at the top of the main pay scale will find the process simplified, as crossing the pay threshold now centres on two successful performance management reviews. And the financial reward is worth the effort: more than £2,500 for teachers outside London, considerably more for inner-London teachers.To find out more Mike Baker visits teachers at Prenton High School for Girls in Birkenhead to hear about their experiences of crossing the pay threshold and seeks out advice from teacher career expert Sara Bubb. Meanwhile, the NUT's General Secretary Christine Blower and ATL's Advisor on Pay and Pensions Martin Freedman help explain the process of crossing the pay threshold.","stream","[]","['Great Britain']","['Wages', 'Teachers']","['Nonfiction television programs', 'Instructional television programs']","https://d3crmev290s45i.cloudfront.net/frames/1004321xxx/1004321217/1004321217-disc001-file001-frame00180-size-exact-570x350.jpg","https://www.remote.uwosh.edu/login?url=http://www.aspresolver.com/aspresolver.asp?EDIV;1737475"

Job satisfaction is one element of a successful career, but career progression and how much you take home also rank highly.

Teaching assistants, unlike teachers, do not have a statutory pay framework.Mike visits two schools in Birkenhead near Liverpool to find out what TAs have to say about their roles and their views on the financial rewards.

When two former enemies - Ian Paisley and Martin McGuinness - together took charge of Northern Ireland, it made headlines around the world. But the untold story is how this political transformation was partly the result of  decades of work by teachers in Ulster's schools. In this film we look at how teachers on the front line in two of the Province's worst trouble spots have defied death threats and intimidation to tackle sectarian hatred head on.They have worked not just with pupils across the divide but with parents as well, bringing together parents and grandparents who bear the emotional scars of the Troubles to unpick the myths of streetlore even in sensitive subjects such as their own recent history. Many believe it is they who have influenced an entire generation of young voters and politicians to put aside their differences and work for peace.","stream","[]","['Northern Ireland']","['Reconciliation', 'Teachers and community']","['Instructional television programs']","https://d3crmev290s45i.cloudfront.net/frames/1004320xxx/1004320870/1004320870-disc001-file001-frame00180-size-exact-570x350.jpg","https://www.remote.uwosh.edu/login?url=http://www.aspresolver.com/aspresolver.asp?EDIV;1737429"

He also finds that children attend primary until they are 14, so he will be able to look at changes in attitude to singing as adolescence approaches, especially in boys.","stream","[]","['South Africa']","['Music in education', 'Music', 'Singing']","['Nonfiction television programs', 'Instructional television programs']","https://d3crmev290s45i.cloudfront.net/frames/1004320xxx/1004320812/1004320812-disc001-file001-frame00180-size-exact-570x350.jpg","https://www.remote.uwosh.edu/login?url=http://www.aspresolver.com/aspresolver.asp?EDIV;1737383"

Now on placement at Burscough Methodist Primary School, Henry is given the opportunity to put cross-curricular planning into practice. He has been asked to teach a Year 5 PE lesson, and he wants to use the Spanish he picked up during his gap year as the cross-curricular element of the lesson. We follow him as he meets with his Edge Hill tutor, Shirley Gaskell, and Burscough's headteacher, Barbara Taylor, to plan how to deliver Spanish through PE, and the practicalities of putting these two subjects together.We see Henry's introductory Spanish lesson as well as the final PE lesson, and we hear his reflections on how it went.","stream","[]","['Great Britain']","['Interdisciplinary approach in education', 'Lesson planning', 'Teachers']","['Instructional television programs']","https://d3crmev290s45i.cloudfront.net/frames/1004320xxx/1004320810/1004320810-disc001-file001-frame00180-size-exact-570x350.jpg","https://www.remote.uwosh.edu/login?url=http://www.aspresolver.com/aspresolver.asp?EDIV;1737381"
"asp1737380-ediv","","Prospect Vale Primary School","2008","16 min","['CPD leaders in primary schools']","Prospect Vale Primary School, in Stockport LA, operates an appraisal management scheme which provides support and guidance not only for teachers but for all the staff in the school. Headteacher Joe Lawless says,  Because CPD is linked to our support and development plan, all the staff here feel valued, including all the support staff . The school uses a cascade approach to any new initiative, which sees training given to senior management who in turn pass knowledge on to subject leaders, teaching staff and support staff. This in-house training is extended to include governors, parents and carers. Parents need to know how to support their child in the home, so the school have introduced Family Learning projects in which parents are offered training in what is being covered in school in maths and English. This is particularly beneficial to the high percentage of ethnic-minority pupils at the school, especially those with EAL parents.","stream","[]","['Great Britain']","['Career development', 'Education', 'Parenting', 'School board members', 'School employees']","['Instructional television programs']","https://d3crmev290s45i.cloudfront.net/frames/1004320xxx/1004320809/1004320809-disc001-file001-frame00180-size-exact-570x350.jpg","https://www.remote.uwosh.edu/login?url=http://www.aspresolver.com/aspresolver.asp?EDIV;1737380"

Headteacher Peter Taylor says, One of the things we say in our organisation is: it doesn't matter what colour the cat is so long as it catches mice; it's one of my favourite sayings and I don't have a doctrinaire view of professional development. We deliver a targeted approach because we know everyone has different needs. So it's about finding out what they need and how to deliver it. Through audits, performance coaching and performance management, whole-school and individual training needs are highlighted; once these needs are identified, training is given accordingly. In this programme we meet some of the staff on whom this method of CPD is having a positive effect.","stream","[]","['Great Britain']","['Career development', 'Performance', 'Teachers', 'Individualized instruction', 'School employees']","['Instructional television programs']","https://d3crmev290s45i.cloudfront.net/frames/1004320xxx/1004320808/1004320808-disc001-file001-frame00180-size-exact-570x350.jpg","https://www.remote.uwosh.edu/login?url=http://www.aspresolver.com/aspresolver.asp?EDIV;1737379"
