Secondary ITE Induction by Clare https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv Made with the help of a great team! en-us 2020-09-21 09:36:06 UTC 2020-09-30 12:13:14 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.net/icons/png/1f600.png Remote Teaching kag31 https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/771424006 I much prefer teaching remotely at the moment. The masks and inability to move around the room really inhibit the way I normally interact with students. Where as breakout rooms, polls and discussion boards have become a much more 'normal way' for me to conduct my teaching to get people to freely engage with each other and discuss things openly.]]> 2020-09-23 09:39:16 UTC https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/771424006 Masks kag31 https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/771429313 I found I had to keep reminding students to not remove their masks when talking in F2F sessions even though we were all struggling to hear them.]]> 2020-09-23 09:42:31 UTC https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/771429313 Rooms kag31 https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/771431036 Really grateful to all the effort that went into finding suitable rooms for us for both induction and next term. Thank you xx]]> 2020-09-23 09:43:40 UTC https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/771431036 Placements kag31 https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/771432791 A BIG THANK YOU you to Clare and Sally for the support in finding Placements - even though half of my original schools pulled out during the process - we had them all placed by Friday afternoon.]]> 2020-09-23 09:44:55 UTC https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/771432791 So great to give the trainees the opportunity to talk in groups or pairs. Despite the masks, they adopted this with aplomb! They were so engaged and professional: we sometimes managed to have a laugh which is often what is missing online and I felt they really bonded as a group. https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/773009857 2020-09-23 17:06:34 UTC https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/773009857 IT! I had two trainees self-isolating and to deliver face to face sessions simultaneously via zoom was so difficult, particularly as, despite assurances from TEL and IT, the cameras in the room weren't working. In week 3, I got one to work but it was completely in the wrong place so didn't show the big screen at all. We managed it using laptops, but this is yet another thing to carry and skill to juggle. https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/773017474 2020-09-23 17:08:11 UTC https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/773017474 One of the lectures was just a powerpoint. Research shows that they need audio and visual too. It's not that difficult to record a powerpoint with audio and visual but makes such a difference in terms of engagement. https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/773029063 2020-09-23 17:10:40 UTC https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/773029063 Clare Stevens did a stellar job of collecting mentor email addresses. https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/773037499 2020-09-23 17:12:20 UTC https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/773037499 I was overambitious in trying to provide lots of online activities for my trainees to complete which resulted in a massive workload. I am still reeling from the stress of it all. https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/773041609 2020-09-23 17:13:10 UTC https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/773041609 The collaborative activities that I managed to organise such as group discussions, peer reviews, padlets etc all worked really well! https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/773047072 2020-09-23 17:14:11 UTC https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/773047072 Thanks to Fi for amazing videos and Mentor handbook! https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/773053615 2020-09-23 17:15:35 UTC https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/773053615 Places to eat https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/775238149 Students are not allowed to eat in seminar rooms so where do they eat? Trainees at Ashdown were shouted at by a staff member in the cafe in the Centre for Innovation  and told they were not allowed in there and that they were not allowed to eat inside anywhere on campus. There is only one outside table near Ashdown and no covered tables. If this is indeed the case, then maybe the university can put up some tents?!

They have been involved online and face to face - behaving impeccably and being committed to their cause in uncertain times. ]]> 2020-09-25 08:14:20 UTC https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/778609872 Engagement https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/778611303 It is difficult to judge engagement with PS without following up on every session which in turn would add to the workload. Equally, it's difficult to engage with asynchronous online training. As this is to continue, it would be good to consider how we can ensure greater engagement and therefore application in the school context.]]> 2020-09-25 08:15:25 UTC https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/778611303 It has been so nice to spend as much time as possible face to face with the trainees and they were all very respectful and followed all the rules. There was a few changes at the beginning which was a little confusing but I think we all got the hang of the procedures quickly. sknight79 https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/779941792 2020-09-25 16:37:32 UTC https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/779941792 It was sometimes hard to move in the space so I wore a mask if what I was doing something that was more interactive. This then means communication is harder. I found lecturing to students when they are all wearing masks quite hard as you can't tell what they are thinking/feeling very easily. It taught me how much I rely on facial expression to check understanding! sknight79 https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/779954975 2020-09-25 16:40:30 UTC https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/779954975 It was difficult to find time to devote to discussion of PS lectures. A few of them did throw up some questions which I found hard to answer as I hadn't had time to watch them all myself. Would it be worth the creator of the presentation sending some summary notes to the tutors so we are aware of the overall content and can maybe come up with a few questions to get them to reflect on what they have seen? sknight79 https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/780204933 2020-09-25 17:40:59 UTC https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/780204933 I thought the generic mentor training videos were excellent and very informative. I believe my session went well and want to thank Fi, Keith, Sally and Chauvan for their support in my preparation for the session. sknight79 https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/780225691 I thought the organisation of the mentor training went really well. Thanks to Fi for that. 
All my mentor email addresses were correct. ]]> 2020-09-25 17:46:00 UTC https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/780225691 The sknight79 https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/780238070 2020-09-25 17:48:59 UTC https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/780238070 https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/782320585 Really valued meeting and teaching trainees in person and they have bonded well as a group. For me, the spirit of support and camaraderie that will serve us all well this year is formed through real interactions and this is much harder for me to engender online.]]> 2020-09-27 12:25:07 UTC https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/782320585 https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/782322100 Practical work is harder when you have to socially distance but we just have to get used to it and the same will be the case when working with school students

]]> 2020-09-27 12:27:51 UTC https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/782322100 https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/782322536 Excellent set of inputs and some trainees liked
 the way they can self manage their own workload.]]> 2020-09-27 12:28:36 UTC https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/782322536 https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/782323455 Really feel the partnership is pulling together to support each other- mentor attendance was excellent. Have been amazed that schools are still welcoming so many trainees. I’ve had mentors contacting trainees in advance to make  them feel welcome.

e.g. Eng/Media and Eng/Drama]]> 2020-09-27 12:34:14 UTC https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/782325867 rmcfahn1 https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/783585590 Online teaching worked really well with break out rooms and reading. Teaching face to face live with masks, no movement and no hands on activities is pretty futile - learning may as well be online in the current climate and with the restrictions that have been put in place.]]> 2020-09-28 07:17:37 UTC https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/783585590 Students wearing masks in rooms. rmcfahn1 https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/783589220 It was difficult to hear them and uncomfortable for them. They wanted to remove them but were not allowed. ]]> 2020-09-28 07:19:54 UTC https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/783589220 Face to face teaching rmcfahn1 https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/783591197 Live teaching works because it is interactive. We have been encouraged to be innovative with our teaching by the university in the past. Now, it appears that they were encouraging just a lecture style: front led, no real interaction, little hands on activities that engage and inspire. It was really quite depressing to teach in this way. I think in hindsight we should have been given the facts about face to face teaching and been allowed to decide to teach remotely instead - we can make this as interactive as the present restrictions on live teaching.]]> 2020-09-28 07:21:10 UTC https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/783591197 rmcfahn1 https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/783601717 It was difficult to check to see if they had completed / watched the sessions. Perhaps each session should be accompanied by an evalauation / quiz that each student has to complete. That way we will know who has engaged and who hasn't.]]> 2020-09-28 07:27:31 UTC https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/783601717 Ashdown rmcfahn1 https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/783612119 There was no great outside space to teach (and students not to wear face masks), or anywhere for them to go and eat. Its a real shame when the rest of campus was empty that we couldn't have been somewhere more centrally located.]]> 2020-09-28 07:33:48 UTC https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/783612119 Blended learning fk95_1 https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/783786379 I really appreciated being able to teach the trainees face to face. I think this helped us all to bond more and to get to know each other. We even managed to include our self-isolating trainee in the face to face sessions which was not without complications but I was very impressed with how the trainees adapted to it. They have all shown immense resilience and commitment (as has been said already) with good attendance and participation. The DST day was very welcome too as it gave everyone a moment to catch their breath!]]> 2020-09-28 08:42:12 UTC https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/783786379 I think it has gone really well and the number of days is bang on really. They do not seem stressed or tired going into their placement. We have managed to almost do all the sessions we would normally do and even though it has been a bit more stressful, the trainees have been amazing and really risen to the new way of working. Face to Face has been lovely as we can stand to teach and show some emotion. Doing the labs was exhausting though as the goggles and masks are a real drain on your energy for a whole day. fb64 https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/783804612 2020-09-28 08:53:28 UTC https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/783804612 To begin with I really missed them working in groups and feeding back. Felt odd to begin with, but I adapted my teaching for more 'pair' work and was ok then. I really do think it has all gone quite smoothly. I love not having to photocopy lots of stuff and them using their devices instead. fb64 https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/783808450 2020-09-28 08:55:54 UTC https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/783808450 I think this has worked very well. As they are adjusting to this new way of working and being 'on' every day this has helped them acclimatise I think. Lectures are a nightmare anyway, so this way people can pause, think, go off on a tangent if they want to as well. All very well organised and clear for them. fb64 https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/783810198 2020-09-28 08:56:58 UTC https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/783810198 Yes, maybe a way of seeing who has accessed, but I guess that ultimately we have to trust that they know the sessions are worthwhile, that is why they have to be videos and engaging rather than just a series of slides. fb64 https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/783812941 2020-09-28 08:58:38 UTC https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/783812941 I think this has been a really hard job for all tutors this year. For part time staff we are asking a huge amount as they teach their 2 days in induction and then have all these other jobs to do too. I think we need to consider this for next year and how can can streamline this better for tutors. This is Fi by the way writing this, so not a part time tutor with beef! I hope that as we continue through the year and separate the forms and admin from our subject sessions we can only build our partnership better. We have a few schools that are not engaging as much as we would like, but in the current circumstances I think that our partnership is in a great shape. Our schools have signed up for placements in numbers I do not think we could have hoped for. Let's just keep up the communication with mentors and support them. fb64 https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/783817023 2020-09-28 09:00:43 UTC https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/783817023 Online teaching fk95_1 https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/783819208 Personally I am feeling a bit out of my depth with the online teaching and haven't had time to access the TEL training resources yet. I'm getting there but I do feel it is adding to my workload having to think of how to make it more engaging. It would also help if we actually had the technology set up in our offices as I don't always have peace at home for online teaching and don't always want to have to bring my laptop on to campus. Whilst I am proud that we managed to include our isolating trainee in the face to face sessions, the lack of camera was frustrating. We also had to repeat what every trainee said so that she could hear through the microphone that only captured the speaker at the front.]]> 2020-09-28 09:02:07 UTC https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/783819208 very well organised! fk95_1 https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/783831215 It is all easily accessible and well organised for the trainees. I think it is really good to have it week by week so as to not overwhelm them. I think many, many trainees appreciate the flexibility of the access. We also set up an hour zoom for them to discuss take aways/application to their subject from the lectures in break out rooms which worked well. Although this was only possible because that week's lectures were familiar to me (have not had time to watch all the other ones...)]]> 2020-09-28 09:09:34 UTC https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/783831215 agree with the difficulty with engagement fk95_1 https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/783835075 It is almost impossible for us to know who is engaging and who isn't. They are adults though and it is their tuition fees they are wasting....I do wonder if some of them will decide some lectures aren't 'relevant' to them and not bother with those. Not quite sure how we get around it but the quiz/evaluation someone else said is worth considering. I wonder if we had to do this again, whether we could book a room for some of them to watch it with others at a specified time? They could book it through eventbrite or something? ]]> 2020-09-28 09:11:59 UTC https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/783835075 Amazing support from the team fk95_1 https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/783839474 What would we actually do without Clare Stevens? All mentor training and PT training informative, clear and easy for colleagues to access. Feels like it has run fairly smoothly this year. I am overwhelmed by the number of placement offers we have had despite the pandemic. ]]> 2020-09-28 09:14:45 UTC https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/783839474 Technology fk95_1 https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/783841559 My mentor meeting didn't go as well as I would have liked because I can only use the web browser version of zoom on my office pc and couldn't have done the meeting from home as I would have had my children coming in and out ridiculous amounts. It meant I could only see one person at a time which wasn't ideal.]]> 2020-09-28 09:16:14 UTC https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/783841559 Drama: https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/783944610 I love the fact that we have managed to find a way to engage with drama in a practical, yet socially distanced way. We have been outside quite a bit and working with masks; it has been good for them to understand how they might use those pedagogies  as all of their schools are teaching practical drama across all year groups. I really like the longer period of induction - feel about right in terms of preparing them for PP1. They have bonded really well as a group and it's great that they are a highly diverse group which means there is a wealth of experience and knowledge. ]]> 2020-09-28 10:33:18 UTC https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/783944610 Drama: https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/783967046 The only issue was with roomings as it is taking forever to get the Risk Assessment signed off for the ACCA. It isn't the fault of anyone in ITE but I felt really unprofessional when the drama lot, who pay the same fees as other trainees but with no bursary, were running around with me trying to find a room. ]]> 2020-09-28 10:49:39 UTC https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/783967046 Drama: https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/783969880 I feel like this has worked well, it's clear that the trainees are accessing them and I've found it really useful and I can listen to them as well in my own time. ]]> 2020-09-28 10:51:55 UTC https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/783969880 Drama: https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/783971612 Same as the other comments above really - I guess it's challenging to measure engagement, but, even when they were live I know there were a number of trainees on emails / planning lessons etc during lectures anyway. Maybe the issue is more fundamental? ]]> 2020-09-28 10:53:14 UTC https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/783971612 Drama: https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/783973442 Clare Stevens is a legend for supporting placements.

I used Keith's idea of asking my trainees to take turns in pairs to lead a discussion on the lectures. They shared 3/4 important points from the lecture and then lead a discussion with the other trainees. This demonstrated who had engaged with the material and I was impressed with how my trainees prepared and led these discussions. We are continuing with this throughout the year. https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/790587544 Business]]> 2020-09-30 08:30:38 UTC https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/790587544 I agree with the comments above.

It was daunting to see how many they had to watch, especially for those trainees in independent schools who are pretty much on a full timetable already. And agree with the above comments on engagement.]]> 2020-09-30 08:57:56 UTC https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/790635106 https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/790638203 Excellent attendance.

Mentors needed time to discuss as this is essential especially without the chance for the normal chit chat they do in person.  Next time I will schedule and hour and a half to give them enough time to talk and then for me to pull together to share good practice.]]> 2020-09-30 09:01:51 UTC https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/790641541 Teaching rp328_2 https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/790745189 It's been fantastic to spend time face to face with the trainees. They have been extremely committed and enthusiastic. Online teaching has also worked well. ]]> 2020-09-30 10:09:50 UTC https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/790745189 Teaching via Zoom and face to face at the same time rp328_2 https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/790756850 I found the easiest way to do this was to bring my laptop in and use that with the isolating trainees going through the Powerpoint at home. It's very clunky trying to manage screen sharing and teaching and keeping an eye on chat function. ]]> 2020-09-30 10:18:47 UTC https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/790756850 Ashdown rooms are perfect and I wish I could use them all year round, but, there was no provision for eating lunch nearby. I have one trainee who is 22 weeks pregnant and she struggled to walk to Bramber and back each lunchtime with the others, and, if the one bench outside Ashdown House was taken, there was really nowhere for her to sit and eat lunch (especially if it was raining) https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/790757244 2020-09-30 10:19:06 UTC https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/790757244 These resources were superb. Thank you to all who put these together. Having these *really* helped me as a PT Curriculum Tutor who works in a school three days a week. https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/790762371 2020-09-30 10:23:13 UTC https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/790762371 I wish I had enough time to watch all of these lectures too so I could know exactly what the trainees were watching but in reality, working at Uni 2 days a week and in a school 3 days a week, this was just not possible. I'm not sure what the answer is but sometimes the trainees asked me questions about the content of them and I honestly could not answer as I had not seen them, which made me feel really silly... Perhaps a summary of what was in each lecture so those of us who are part time could at least have some idea of the lectures? https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/790764027 2020-09-30 10:24:35 UTC https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/790764027 Placements were challenging but I've been bowled over by the support of our schools. Many of them have agreed to host significant numbers of trainees at such a difficult time. Most schools are taking at least some Sussex trainees. https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/790822504 2020-09-30 11:11:51 UTC https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/790822504 A big well done to Fi for re organising the mentor training so successfully - a great job! https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/790829747 2020-09-30 11:17:39 UTC https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/790829747 Engagement andylowe https://padlet.com/cstenning/iirzhajnocmolxrv/wish/790902125 really positive engagement and involvement by students. they welcomed face to face and online experiences

Felt the time of one hour rather than 2 was appropriate and took the pressure off too
