Wrapping up the final Award in Education and Training for this academic year with 3 brilliant microteaching sessions on Beekeeping Safely, Technical Drawing and Beginners' Crochet.
Some welcome positive feedback from the lovely
#HWGTA cohort, too! #loveFE #AmplifyFE
This image is a four-panel collage. The top left panel shows two individuals in a classroom setting wearing a full white beekeeper suit with a netted hood, seated at a desk. The top right panel shows a close-up of hands working on a crochet project at a wooden table. There's a ball of burgundy yarn and a small red crochet hook, with some pink yarn strands. On the table are three completed knitted or crocheted items: a light blue figure with intertwining loops, an orange octopus with visible eyes and tentacles, and a green and yellow striped lizard-like creature. The bottom left panel depicts two individuals at a light wooden table engaging in a technical drawing activity using rulers, pencils and graph paper. The bottom right panel displays a word cloud with various adjectives. The most prominent words, in larger font sizes, are "relevant," "friendly," "informative," "enjoyable," and "useful."

'We create a programme solution for learners'
And, I kid you not:
'I call it curriculum design, I hate the term pedagogy'

I was today years old when I found out about #Gapminder - an amazing resource #FE folk.
Exploding common misconceptions with some great, reliable data for #maths #literacy educators to use in statistics learning and discussion activities.

A screenshot of the Gapminder website titled "The Worldview Upgrader." It features a pop-up welcome message at the top, a search bar, and three clickable icons representing different categories of information: UN Goals, Population, and Refugees. The design is modern with a purple and white color scheme.
