Gratnells has begun a series of free-to-attend webinars that will be of interest to teachers, technicians, teaching support staff and senior leaders. In the first of the series, “Does your classroom help children learn?”, Dr. Katherine Forsey CSciTeach looked at several environmental factors that can have a detrimental effect on learning and considered how to monitor and combat these successfully. The webinar also looked at introducing classroom-based enquiries to engage students, facilitate greater awareness and improve student agency in regards to their learning environment.
Further details of the webinar programme with sign-up links can be found on the Gratnells Learning Rooms site
Future confirmed dates and subjects include:
10th June (16h00 UK) – Learning Rooms Outdoors
15th July (16h00 UK) – Learning Rooms STEM Club ‘Prepare for launch’
16th September (16h00 UK) – Learning Rooms Lego Club
Each webinar will feature an opportunity for a live Q&A session and the slides and recording will be made available after the event.
Gratnells Learning Rooms seeks to turn outmoded classroom models into places where both teaching and learning become inspirational, motivational and exciting. Working with partners in technology, design, architecture and teaching Gratnells Learning Rooms is helping to create a blueprint for the classrooms of today, tomorrow and the future.
