#ukedchat helping pupils to take off 'straight jackets' of being spoon-fed and letting them think for themselves @ICTmagic I guess the biggest barrier is temptation to teach to the test which often comes from pupils and parents IMHO #ukedchat @ICTmagic Biggest barrier may be the kind of teaching that doesn't challenge learners to *think* #ukedchat 1 of the big issues i have with tests is that children aren't ready for them. It takes independence to read and answer Qs. Ideas? #ukedchat Plan 1 lesson per week 4 each of ur classes where u set them off on task/project. U let them learn, focus on formative assessment #ukedchat Need to teach children how to adapt and apply skills to different scenarios #ukedchat @ePaceonline: #ukedchat I know I go on about it but helping pupils to learn about how they learn is vital.completely agree 2 biggest barriers are OFSTED and staff not willing to re educate themselves about the role of teacher #ukedchat RT @peter8green: 2 biggest barriers are OFSTED and staff not willing to re educate themselves about the role of teacher #ukedchat RT @chrismayoh: Very much looking forward to #DLchat with @SheliBB and @ICTEvangelist at 9pm GMT, straight after #ukedchat - Join us! @ukedchat develop independence by designating the first 5 minutes of a new task as 'no question' time. No asking for help! #ukedchat @8rinaldi I've done that and we're in the process of doing it again. #ukedchat @Starshine_Music Is it possible (even if not desirable) to amend league tables and encourage creativity at the same time? #ukedchat #ukedchat allow them room to make mistakes and encourage them to explore their imagination - no spoon feeding. getting rid of league tables would create space and freedom for independence both in teaching and learning #ukedchat let them fail, pick themselves up and understand why, then succeed.

agree @janbaker97 needs a culture change from punitive Ofsted criteria & regime to letting up teach again without fear #ukedchat Change test or teaching? Chicken and egg? Often heard "is this going to be in the test?" or "can't you just tell us the answer" :( #ukedchat @peter8green agreed, OFSTED have defined too much of our practice over the last decade - with out any good basis, more of a whim! #ukedchat Not sure I know what an 'adaptive' or 'innovative' learner is? #ukedchat @ICTmagic how does or how did ? #ukedchat #ukedchat in Mathematics, do we provide opportunities to be confident with number rather than just competent when they follow a procedure? @janbaker97 Are they other ways to monitor and maintain standards other than a outside body observing teaching and learning? #ukedchat @mrpeel Agreed What I was getting at was that 2 many teacher r sage on stage every lesson. Sometimes we need 2 b guide on side #ukedchat @mrpeel @jamesmichie we also need to let children work in different groups . not just ability / friendship -overcome barriers #ukedchat @ICTmagic I try to model graceful, on-the-way-to success failure as often as possible... ;) #ukedchat #ukedchat Children need to make more decisions and be encouraged to ask more questions. #ukedchat i like to get students to teach sections in class - not present but teach... confident handling question and answer @natkojak rather than dishing out jobs at the start of/throughout the year, chn should apply for them #ukedchat #PGDEplacement #ukedchat Too much control-the idea that there can be 'bad' teaching rather than ineffective in current context. RT @soos24: @bellaale #ukedchat Allow yourself to try things in front of class that you haven't done before, and if you fail try again,... @ukedchat we can not be afraid to let the pupils make mistakes to quote 'the only REAL mistake is the one we learn nothing from' #ukedchat @SurrealAnarchy How 'did' and 'could' once again without testing? #ukedchat

@MathsMummy #ukedchat completely agree #ukedchat I've recently done some TEEP training and the whole premise of that is to get students working effectively as independent students @genkijen @mrpeel agreed, embrace a wide range of scenarios for learning. #ukedchat I try to personalise learning by asking chdn what they want to learn, at the start of the year #ukedchat easy to incorporate their choices @MrWaldram #ukedchat absolutely, have just spent 3 hours at y8 parents eve telling them just that! don't be afraid to try things RT @mrpeel: #ukedchat i like to get students to teach sections in class - not present but teach... confident handling question and answer #ukedchat risk takers is at centre of IB profile - no risk -no achievement- no learning @ukedchat @ictmagic In science, we encourage creativity+collab+deep thought by giving Ss cameras then http://t.co/ErgMzupZ #ukedchat @mrpeel child as teacher can be really effective even at primary #ukedchat A great topic for #ukedchat tonight: developing independent learners @mathsmummy I don't think so. Not enough application, not just in maths but in real life! #ukedchat Personalisation is key! We should be creating learning ecperiences that will prepare children for real-life outside of education #ukedchat If we want intrinsically motivated students, we should stop our obsession with reward charts, stamps and stickers. #ukedchat @materialteacher I've not heard of that. How does it work? #ukedchat @genkijen #ukedchat important they teach and not just present, but totally agree #ukedchat how do we help students to be more independent? Give them the opportunity to fail and fail again #ukedchat part of a TEEP lesson is agreeing learning outcomes- I use a wish list for them to set their own quite often. A lot of people talking about fear of failure. Where is that from? #ukedchat

@oldandrewuk Disagree. IL is not solo, IL is coindependent - group work, support networks, peerassessment etc all part of IL. #ukedchat @peter8green I'm afraid I think secondary schools, as presently organised with high stakes testing do just that #ukedchat What do u think? @oldandrewuk #ukedchat- an effective learner is one who can work alone but also one who can work as part of a group towards an agreed goal @oldandrewuk: #ukedchat The best way to encourage independent learners is to avoid ever doing groupwork. is that realistic? @Catherine_S88 To support this, we need to know what questions to ask and when to ask them to develop children's thinking. #ukedchat @ePaceonline I made another great mistake today...accidentally started 2 online timed tests at the same time ... Oops #ukedchat @jamesmichie Looking forward to reading later #ukedchat @ICTmagic it is in any school worth going to! #ukedchat @Educationchat @futurebehaviour - I love alcohol but it would be a disaster if I depended on it for motivation! #ukedchat #stickerfreezone @hlmrmo Why? Isn't there a place for students/employees to just do what they are told? #devilsadvocate #ukedchat @Starshine_Music @natkojak haha. Then I force it on someone #ukedchat It's not independent learning. It can't be. It's interdependent learning and this is a dirty, political and power-based business. #ukedchat Young minds are by nature innovative and creative, but that gets drummed out of them by pressure to become conformed to standard #ukedchat @mrpeel as does A-Level Media curriculum but frm my research the examples are few. #ukedchat @oldandrewuk here we go again #ukedchat avoid group work in football? Drama? School Orchestra? @Catherine_S88 This is also very powerful for assessment at the point of learning. #ukedchat @mrpeel #ukedchat- that's so cool- I'm sure it does but what a brilliant idea!

change RT @captainrobs: #ukedchat If you want independent learners, you give them books over the internet. Google isn't research. @KempsterD @jackieschneider But how would you define geniune learning? Academic? Social?

Give them the opportunity to fail and fail again RT @Starshine_Music: ...and can you be successful and creative at the same time? @ICTmagic #ukedchat > oooh yes I think so! @ICTmagic protyping experimentation and not worrying about getting the right answer key to develop creativity in schools #ukedchat Set up opportunities whereby the learners will fail...builds up resilience @360_People #ukedchat @janeconsidine If teachers aren't independent learners, how can our kids be?

distracted? How do we keep them on track but still independent? #ukedchat @cherylren #ukedchat or do they mean learning to be innovative? @DrHuxTM We often go off on tangents and I allow them to if they are fired up by it. They often dictate the path of their learning #ukedchat RT @brynll: Set up opportunities whereby the learners will fail...builds up resilience @360_People #ukedchat To promote indep we need space for students to explore their own interests rather than having learning directed others #ukedchat Surely an effective rewards policy in a school will encourage independent learning search #ukedchat @oldandrewuk @super_sixfive Imagine a world where children/adults never work in groups together? Dreadful. #ukedchat #ukedchat I don't know when I had the ability to learn independently but I feel sure it was after year 11, and most likely after year 13. #ukedchat @captainrobs in many lessons, innovative learner is the one who's staring out the window RT @BenRogersOVA: @janeconsidine If teachers aren't independent learners, how can our kids be? The same strategies for both! #ukedchat @SurrealAnarchy #ukedchat- is this possible? Totally new?! Go on- do it now! I'd be impressed! @jackieschneider So why are there so many children out there who are told to sit down, be quiet and do as they are told? #ukedchat @SurrealAnarchy Yes, Twitter far from ideal for a sensible chat on UK Ed.... #ukedchat Can being innovative & adaptive be taught? What is the role of an educator in developing this? #ukedchat @tecgrange @ictmagic what is the #ukedchat topic this evening? What my Y12 students felt an IL looked like back in October. There perspective has changed since then: http://t.co/Mky9XVHK #ukedchat @mattbuxton10 True but we must remember importance of teaching children skills they need to gain knowledge as independent learners #ukedchat RT @materialteacher: @janeconsidine #ukedchat- I like this 'dare to share' idea!

And by whom. IMHO #ukedchat #ukedchat We're all independent learners just we are very rarely given opp at school to show that we are. @ICTmagic Write that one down and include it in a book one day! :-) #ukedchat @chezallen So educators are wasting their time to try? How can we do things that will help? #ukedchat @jamesmichie This means teachers need to let go a bit... but they daren't (often) cos of top down pressures #ukedchat Blog post Cre8agame student empowerment, learners teaching learners about Kodu http://t.co/cGugYaDe #pilgf #msftpil #kodu #ukedchat #edchat @ICTmagic - because we want compliant kids who know there place. It's much harder treating kids as individuals! #ukedchat @KarDoh #mathsjoke falls on stony ground #ukedchat @materialteacher You can do that by teaching them how to research and read in the first place. #ukedchat @oldandrewuk: @SurrealAnarchy #ukedchat I was talking about learning, not hobbies. one doesn't learn piano then? #ukedchat If the key to learning is beginning with questions then secondary schools don't allow enough pupil driven Qs - primary schools? @ICTmagic I think it us more about letting the innate creativity flourish with the right environment & tools etc #ukedchat @AndrewManson1 - true dat! #ukedchat @syded06 I agree completely. Guiding learning, not controlling learning. #ukedchat @SheliBB @Educationchat @materialteacher @futurebehaviour @jackieschneider & sometimes no stars.

of school.We can't expect children to 'turn on' independence at our request #ukedchat @mikeatedji Maybe due to tightness of curriculum.

P'raps spread good ideas... @genkijen @SheliBB @ikeontoast @raisechildrens @Muvizu3D Flowol is good for this as well I've found #ukedchat @catmill The true innovation in education would be to engender the love of the pursuit of wisdom #ukedchat @PatParslow absolutely, an open teacher creates an open learning environment. #ukedchat #ukedchat interesting discussion tonight, shame twitter kept crashing or I could have joined in with more of the discussion @Arsinhy @mikeatedji I do. And a few of my marbles. #ukedchat @mikeatedji I believe the slightly crass 24/7 learner is the next step Stimulate learningcontent outside the classroom -flipclass? #ukedchat @janbaker97 @thelazyteacher "3 Bs before me" approach - Brain. Board/Book, Buddy... and then ask your teacher #ukedchat @genkijen: @ukedchat #ukedchat i am going to look for more ways to get the children to teach each other and me #ukedchat > excellent! @ICTmagic Gove doesn't listen to Heads, Heads don't listen to staff, staff don't listen to kids #ukedchat @janbaker97 @thelazyteacher brain buddy board ( wall ) boss #ukedchat :-) RT @jamesmichie: @PatParslow absolutely, an open teacher creates an open learning environment. #ukedchat RT @SurrealAnarchy: @catmill The true innovation in education would be to engender the love of the pursuit of wisdom #ukedchat @SheliBB love mantle and totally agree children take

control and are experts is fab way of engaging #ukedchat RT @jackieschneider: @ICTmagic Gove doesn't listen to Heads, Heads don't listen to staff, staff don't listen to kids #ukedchat @catmill You're right. It's ideological and political. We strategically comply, all the while trying to do what we *think is right #ukedchat I've just built an open ended activity around challenging stereotypes to prompt debate. Might appeal to some http://t.co/Zou7xsYF #ukedchat oh bother - missed #ukedchat tonight - looked really good too. Have to wait for the archive now. Hi & bye if you're still there #ukedchat @ICTmagic thanks for hosting a very interesting debate tonight. @raisechildrens @kvnmcl Lol! Theres a whole other discussion there, do not get me started. #ukedchat @jackieschneider @ICTmagic but if we listen to kids it's easier? #ukedchat Everyone is responsible for their own future. They must make choices & decisions. Even the wrong ones. But we are there to guide. #ukedchat It's 9pm & sadly #ukedchat must come to a close. Thanks to @ICTmagic & all chatters for another great session. View http://t.co/8FUKee6R
