TESSA: Active Learning - Audio
by The Open University
These short dramas portray a range of active learning techniques in a fictional primary school in West Africa: 'Cast the Spell' - creating a drama in the classroom; 'Seven Rivers in Africa' - using songs and poems; 'The Maths Game' - engaging pupils with games; 'The Open Day Drama' - pupils working in groups; 'The Town Meeting' - interactive stories and 'Let me do the Cooking Mama' - practical tasks. These dramas are not 'perfect' lessons but raise questions about different strategies which teachers can use to enhance their pupils’ learning. The clips in this album are designed to be used to support the development of teachers' classroom practice in both formal and non formal learning situations.
