Getting children to think like a scientist, an historian, or a mathematician can really accelerate their development. Professor Philip Adey from King's College, London has been researching this area since the 1970s. He explains how his findings can be applied in schools through cognitive conflict: creating challenges for children, social construction, encouraging children to talk to each other, and meta cognition: learning to learn. Encouraging children to question what they know at every opportunity, and make them aware of how they think, can also help them do better in exams. Teaching has traditionally been based on the theory that children develop in stages at a set rate, but research suggests these stages can be speeded up.

Exploring the issue of refugees in a KS3 Geography lesson he illustrates how the strategies of ""mind-movies"" and ""reading"" photographs can help students learn. Mind movies are seen as a great way of accessing children's knowledge. To work well an excellent teacher-pupil relationship is thought to be needed and pupils must learn to take their own knowledge seriously. ""Mind movies"" particularly appeal to pupils who learn best with visual and auditory stimuli and for the teacher they can be a highly flexible teaching tool. Paul's class illustrates that thinking skills can be an exciting way of encouraging students to think for themselves and to analyse not just what they are learning but how they are learning as well.","stream","[]","['Great Britain']","['Teacher-student relationships', 'Geography', 'Thought and thinking']","['Instructional television programs']","https://d3crmev290s45i.cloudfront.net/frames/1004319xxx/1004319214/1004319214-disc001-file001-frame00180-size-fit-1024x578.jpg","https://www.remote.uwosh.edu/login?url=http://www.aspresolver.com/aspresolver.asp?EDIV;1736729" "asp1736728-ediv","","Back in the mainstream","2005","15 min","['Secondary special needs', 'Education in video']","Shoeburyness High School in Southend on Sea has developed a fresh approach to supporting children with special needs in a mainstream school.

The concept of best teaching practice is illuminated with humour and originality in The Teaching Challenge when John Humphrys travels to London's tough East End to try his hand as a teacher.The scourge of politicians on the Today's programme confesses to feeling terrified at the prospect of teaching his first English Grammar class to GCSE pupils at Eastleigh Community School.Phil Beadle, Guardian Teacher of the Year, offers help with Humphrys teaching plan and offers advice on how to control and inspire his class.The programme captures an extraordinary culture clash which overturns many prejudices about bog standard comprehensives and the nature of teaching.","stream","[]","['Great Britain']","['English language', 'Teachers']","['Instructional television programs']","https://d3crmev290s45i.cloudfront.net/frames/1004319xxx/1004319099/1004319099-disc001-file001-frame00180-size-exact-570x350.jpg","https://www.remote.uwosh.edu/login?url=http://www.aspresolver.com/aspresolver.asp?EDIV;1736614" "asp1736613-ediv","","Tomlinson. The dilemma","2005","28 min","['Big debate']","Part one of a two-part series looking at the crisis in England's secondary education system, and how the Tomlinson Report proposes to solve it. At age 16 pupill attainment is low and the drop out rate is high, at age 18 grades are inflated and key skills are missing. The Report aims to rectify this by replacing the existing qualifications framework with a single diploma. This presents the system with a massive dilemma. Experts like Professor Alan Smithers and teachers like Francis Gilbert remain sceptical about a qualification where all forms of learning are equally valued and equally accessible. So if Tomlinson has got it wrong, what should we do to fix England's ailing secondary system? The sceptics argue that we should work with what we ve got and maintain a separate vocational sector. This would perhaps mean a system similar to that of Germany and could mean the end of the vocational maze that currently traps the unwary.","stream","[]","['Great Britain']","['Education, Secondary']","['Documentary television programs']","https://d3crmev290s45i.cloudfront.net/frames/1004319xxx/1004319098/1004319098-disc001-file001-frame00180-size-exact-570x350.jpg","https://www.remote.uwosh.edu/login?url=http://www.aspresolver.com/aspresolver.asp?EDIV;1736613" "asp1736612-ediv","","Transforming the classroom","2005","28 min","['All change']","The magazine series helping to improve the school environment.

It encourages offenders to face up to the consequences of their bad behaviour - and ask them to suggest ways of repairing the damage they have caused.Harriet Wall, Drayton's learning support coordinator, has been running the school's restorative justice scheme for three years after being introduced to the system by the Thames Valley Police. During this time, teachers at the school have been increasingly impressed by the impact restorative justice can have in the classroom environment. In this programme we see Harriet using restorative justice in a series of incidents involving bad behaviour.","stream","[]","['Great Britain']","['Restorative justice', 'Students', 'Behavior modification']","['Instructional television programs']","https://d3crmev290s45i.cloudfront.net/frames/1004319xxx/1004319039/1004319039-disc001-file001-frame00180-size-exact-570x350.jpg","https://www.remote.uwosh.edu/login?url=http://www.aspresolver.com/aspresolver.asp?EDIV;1736555" "asp1736554-ediv","","Safer schools","2005","14 min","['Secondary management']","A panel of experts is drawn together to discuss security issues in secondary schools.

Do they assist cross-curricular use and extended learning opportunities beyond the classroom? These were the questions that Dudley LEA set out to answer when it embarked on an ambitious pilot to introduce PDAs into schools across the authority. The programme visits two schools that have been involved in the first phase of the pilot to find out how pupils and teachers have been adapting. John Davies, Future Learning Adviser at the Dudley Grid for Learning, who is responsible for taking the project forward, also discusses his role. The pilot is still in its infancy and users have been experiencing a few teething problems, but the initial response from schools is very positive. Teachers and pupils have already identified big advantages in using the PDAs as educational tools and have begun to explore how the technology might transform teaching and learning in the future.","stream","[]","['Great Britain']","['Educational technology']","['Instructional television programs']","https://d3crmev290s45i.cloudfront.net/frames/1004319xxx/1004319034/1004319034-disc001-file001-frame00180-size-fit-1024x578.jpg","https://www.remote.uwosh.edu/login?url=http://www.aspresolver.com/aspresolver.asp?MARC;1780966" "asp1736548-ediv","","Construction trades","2005","14 min","['Education in video', 'Secondary 14-19 vocational']","Warwickshire's education department is a DfES 14-19 Pathfinder tasked to promote and improve collaboration between schools, FE colleges and training providers.
