The article acknowledges that climate change can be a difficult subject to teach as it is seen as a very opinionated topic. It is so different from most other topics in the science curriculum like the periodic table or the circulatory system, that are concrete. The article suggests methods like debate, discussion and many more as beneficial teaching strategies. It emphasizes also the importance of making the material relevant to the lives of the students in order for them to engage with the topic and the material effectively. Making links to the nature of science also. These are aspects that I tried to include in my teaching, I placed a real emphasis on discussion in many of my classes. ]]> 2020-05-03 14:59:21 UTC https://padlet.com/annamburke99/fmwff46fbhiv/wish/546981736 A Flipped Classroom in Action. annamburke99 https://padlet.com/annamburke99/fmwff46fbhiv/wish/548929809 This article focuses on one teachers experience of using a flipped classroom approach. A flipped classroom is something that I would really like to embrace in my next school placement/ when I am a qualified teacher as I believe it really enhances the learning that can take place in a classroom, leaving more time for practicals, discussions and direct help with the students. I was unable to try this strategy out when on placement as many of my students did not have access to devices/internet. I did however put an emphases on having a video in most of my classes. Like the students mentioned in this article my students reported that they found it beneficial to hear another person explaining something, the visual aid of seeing it, and the ability to watch the video again if there was any confusion. This coupled with the added engagement and motivation that videos have on students I believe makes them a really effective tool to use in teaching. ]]> 2020-05-04 11:14:33 UTC https://padlet.com/annamburke99/fmwff46fbhiv/wish/548929809 World Population Clock annamburke99 https://padlet.com/annamburke99/fmwff46fbhiv/wish/549710326 2020-05-04 15:41:17 UTC https://padlet.com/annamburke99/fmwff46fbhiv/wish/549710326 Human Population annamburke99 https://padlet.com/annamburke99/fmwff46fbhiv/wish/549717849 2020-05-04 15:43:25 UTC https://padlet.com/annamburke99/fmwff46fbhiv/wish/549717849 Pollution annamburke99 https://padlet.com/annamburke99/fmwff46fbhiv/wish/549724292 2020-05-04 15:45:13 UTC https://padlet.com/annamburke99/fmwff46fbhiv/wish/549724292 Global Warming annamburke99 https://padlet.com/annamburke99/fmwff46fbhiv/wish/549735082 2020-05-04 15:48:30 UTC https://padlet.com/annamburke99/fmwff46fbhiv/wish/549735082 Climate Change annamburke99 https://padlet.com/annamburke99/fmwff46fbhiv/wish/549748226 2020-05-04 15:52:22 UTC https://padlet.com/annamburke99/fmwff46fbhiv/wish/549748226 Peer Reviewed Papers annamburke99 https://padlet.com/annamburke99/fmwff46fbhiv/wish/549770716 2020-05-04 15:59:25 UTC https://padlet.com/annamburke99/fmwff46fbhiv/wish/549770716 Resources annamburke99 https://padlet.com/annamburke99/fmwff46fbhiv/wish/549776512 2020-05-04 16:01:09 UTC https://padlet.com/annamburke99/fmwff46fbhiv/wish/549776512 Global Goal 13 annamburke99 https://padlet.com/annamburke99/fmwff46fbhiv/wish/555275613 2020-05-06 16:27:44 UTC https://padlet.com/annamburke99/fmwff46fbhiv/wish/555275613 UBUNTU Climate Change Lesson Plan annamburke99 https://padlet.com/annamburke99/fmwff46fbhiv/wish/555769260 2020-05-06 19:42:21 UTC https://padlet.com/annamburke99/fmwff46fbhiv/wish/555769260 The Effect of the Inquiry-Based Learning Approach on Student's Critical-Thinking Skills annamburke99 https://padlet.com/annamburke99/fmwff46fbhiv/wish/557029610 This article discusses the relationship between inquiry based learning and critical thinking skills. Critical thinking skills are a really important skill to for your students to develop and for you to foster in your classroom. The research also indicates that "scientific inquiry" should also be coupled with "scientific discussion" as IBL can increase the comprehension level of students. The article also refers to Çetinbaş-Gazeteci research that showed that games had a positive effect on students critical thinking skills and performance. I found the use of games i.e matching games etc. really beneficial and effective in my classes, as motivational, assessment, information and evaluative tools. I tried to incorporate inquiry into my planning where possible and the use of games.]]> 2020-05-07 10:29:39 UTC https://padlet.com/annamburke99/fmwff46fbhiv/wish/557029610 Waste Management annamburke99 https://padlet.com/annamburke99/fmwff46fbhiv/wish/557321834 2020-05-07 13:00:26 UTC https://padlet.com/annamburke99/fmwff46fbhiv/wish/557321834 Sustainable Energy in Ireland annamburke99 https://padlet.com/annamburke99/fmwff46fbhiv/wish/557358720 2020-05-07 13:13:57 UTC https://padlet.com/annamburke99/fmwff46fbhiv/wish/557358720 Catalyst Online Resources annamburke99 https://padlet.com/annamburke99/fmwff46fbhiv/wish/557481502 2020-05-07 13:55:50 UTC https://padlet.com/annamburke99/fmwff46fbhiv/wish/557481502 Trust and Mistrust when Students Read Multiple Information Sources about Climate Change annamburke99 https://padlet.com/annamburke99/fmwff46fbhiv/wish/558077286 Now more then ever it is vitally important that students are equipped with the correct skills to be able to identify credible sources of information, not only in science but in their other subjects and especially in their everyday lives. As discussed in one of our tutorials it crucial that sources relating to such controversial topics like climate change can be credible and that students are able to identify bias that may be present. When in the classroom one student remarked that "if something is reported on Facebook that means it's true". I tried to include questioning in my planning trying to get to students to ask, why? This type of critical analysis of information is skill that should be encouraged in the students especially when dealing with topics like climate change.]]> 2020-05-07 17:19:43 UTC https://padlet.com/annamburke99/fmwff46fbhiv/wish/558077286 annamburke99 https://padlet.com/annamburke99/fmwff46fbhiv/wish/558869356 It is important to have a large variety of sources in your teaching, like images, worksheets, Power Points, games etc. I especially like the use of videos in the classroom I find that they can be a very effective resource. ]]> 2020-05-08 01:57:09 UTC https://padlet.com/annamburke99/fmwff46fbhiv/wish/558869356 Lesson Plan annamburke99 https://padlet.com/annamburke99/fmwff46fbhiv/wish/558926722 2020-05-08 02:57:33 UTC https://padlet.com/annamburke99/fmwff46fbhiv/wish/558926722 Reflection annamburke99 https://padlet.com/annamburke99/fmwff46fbhiv/wish/560042017 2020-05-08 15:13:49 UTC https://padlet.com/annamburke99/fmwff46fbhiv/wish/560042017
