Being able to evaluate effectively is a crucial skill, both in and out of the English classroom. Join Rachel Johnson (PiXL CEO) and seasoned English educators Jo Heathcote and Richard Twigg (@Richard_Twigg), this week, as they get stuck into the nuances of teaching evaluations, dissecting the joys and challenges, tips and tricks. Whether it is enabling students to debate and critically think about media effectively, addressing the large cognitive load required to attempt these questions, or strengthening the confidence needed for students to be bold in their views, evaluation can be an intimidating thing to teach and learn. Gain practical insights including the power of "Juicy quotations," the balance between prepping and planning, and the efficacy of techniques like "SLOP" (Shed Loads of Practice).
