@msetchell.bsky.social Hi Matt ... don't suppose you have any tips on getting some customer service from Epraise these days? Over a week of no link to MIS and despite normal help channels, no fix. Missing the brilliant old days of the platform.

Does anyone have a recommendation for a video camera that we can use to film lessons apart from the obvious phone, ipad etc. Looking to build a resource bank for our school. @joedale.bsky.social (? tech guru) Thanks #uked #teamlanguages #uk #edusky #edtech

Students think it’s “magic” that even a week later, if I show them the first letter of each word cues of a whole text, they can remember it, repeat it, translate it.

As a language teacher, lots more choral repetition (have always done this) but tweaked to use Eng cue & German choral response; reading it back to me to start with. Next step is removing the whole German word and leaving just the first letter as the German cue, I continue to prompt with English.

We offer to buy them, but if they want to write in them, they buy their own.

Using booklets in teaching: Research, pedagogy & practice Following a few discussions on using booklets on Twitter recently, I thought I would pull together some resources on it. I suspect there is little research on the use of these types of booklets in sch...

This is what I love about having taught in the same school since 1996. “You taught my mum/dad/aunty”. Teaching the children of students who “came good in the end” and are proud to show you that.

Interesting. Have been wondering whether we’d go back to pre-Covid times.

That was my 31st GCSE results day - about my 8th? (soon to be 9th) GCSE German spec. Always nervous, but always lovely to celebrate with students who have worked so hard to earn their next steps. #edusky #mflbluesky #uked

I do a “Blog of the Week” recommendation for our briefing. I try to keep them short, practical & linked to some PD or focus areas that we’re working on. I very often recommend one of @pepsmccrea.bsky.social Evidence Snacks. They are perfect & provide wider reading links for the keen beans.

So many links to great blog posts and articles popping up that I can’t stop reading. How do people gather, save, collate these? Looking for a one-stop solution. #edusky #uked
