Teachers TV - From Good to Outstanding

[Teachers TV]

Hi everyone, I’m working on behalf of Teachers TV to ask for teachers to give their advice and opinions to fellow teachers who are taking part in a new series of From Good to Outstanding. I thought the teachers on this site would find this relevant, so I hope this is OK to post here (I also posted this in the forum but thought it warranted a blog post too). The series started on 9th June 2009 and we would really like more teachers to get involved and let us know what they think.

Here’s a bit more about the programmes: Taking a teacher who was rated ‘good’ by their school, viewers will have the opportunity to give their advice about how they could deliver an ‘outstanding’ lesson. After also receiving advice from specialist coaches, we find out what impact the experience has had on each teacher taking part.

Read more about secondary science teacher Hana and early years teacher Rachel in the discussion group as they are interviewed by Teachers TV. Hana and Rachel welcome your advice after their first lesson which is now live, so do get involved.

Thanks in advance for your contributions.

Hi Beth,
Glad to have you here. Your initiative is very interesting, a fine example of 21st-century collaboration. Videos are such a good training tool. I like how you've organized it all, with a "watch and comment" format.
Let people know about Fireside and encourage them to join in on the educational discussions, ok?
We'll encourage people to participate in what you're doing. Looks VERY promising.
Welcome!
