On-demand subject videos
Our Subject Videos focus on the following areas:
- An Introduction to the Subject
- Adaptive Teaching
- Anticipating Common Misconceptions in the Subject Area
- Memory and Metacognition
- Ongoing Subject Knowledge Development and Self-Efficacy
Importantly, each subject focuses on these key areas of teacher practice through the lens of their subject allowing trainees to develop subject specific knowledge and supporting them to develop an understanding of the nuance of their subject.
Organisations can decide how to utilise the videos to maximum effect within and across their training programmes.
Each video is approximately 30 minutes in duration.
Accompanying presentations and resources, including recommended reading and reflective questions, accompany each video.
