Michael Pohl

Michael Pohl ran a workshop with the 'I can we can' ICT cluster on 11 September. He ran a second smaller workshop for other members of staff after school. Michael demonstrated how different thinking models can be used to enhance students thinking. He used different models such as 6 Thinking Hats, the revised Bloom's Taxonomy and Tony Ryan's Thinker's Keys. Michael talked about how ACRONYMS can be useful as can Graphic Organisers. He also talked about how teachers and students need to ask the right sort of questions.
