Duration: 4 weeks; time varies from roughly 1-3 hours a week. As a teacher, how do you ensure you talk less during a lesson and activate students? Why do teachers like to talk so much? Or perhaps we don't even like to or want to, but we find ourselves talking for long stretches of time anyway? Which role is left for students when a teacher is talking most of the time? When do students learn? When the teacher is talking or when they are active by working and talking to each other? Obviously, this is an important topic! - Read about pitfalls and how to identify them. - Specific tips and practical tools, ready to use. - Links to articles, books, and websites for those who want more background information. - Access to a private group where you can ask questions and learn from other teachers. - Every week, questions to check your knowledge This course is designed to share information as compactly as possible.
