If you are using a video or documentary in your lessons then this is an ideal way of using metacognition to help students get more from it. This resource uses metacognitive questioning to enhance learning when students are watching educational videos or documentaries in lessons. It is suitable for teachers of all subjects and is applicable to video-learning activities on any topic: it should be used to enhance metacognition when students are learning from a video or documentary in lessons. Using the resource is easy: the PowerPoint contains numerous prompts, each with three metacognitive questions. Questions for before, during and after the video are clearly distinguished and the integrated menu allows you to switch to the different sections of the metacognitive process with ease. Simply show one set of questions to students before starting the video, one set of questions during a mid-point plenary, and one afterwards. The questions deal with a wide variety of different topics in relation metacognition and self-regulated learning: they aim to trigger student reflection on their own engagement with the learning process, thus allowing them to plan, monitor, evaluate and regulate their learning more effectively.

This download contains ten ICT Suite (Computer Room) learning sessions that are suitable for 1-hour teaching periods: they can be used by teachers of any subject working with students aged 11-16. Each session is a fully-resourced ‘zero prep’ lesson that encourages a high degree of learning autonomy and independence. We’ve taken a tried and tested lesson structure and connected it to our specialist topics: metacognition and self-regulated learning. Using a worksheet for guidance (and eventually peer-assessment) students spend the first 35-40 minutes of the lesson creating a presentation and the remainder of the session showing it to their peers and assessing one another’s work. The download includes PowerPoint instructions as well as a set of ten different worksheets which refer to different aspects of metacognition and self-regulated learning: five of the worksheets are teachers who wish for students to work in pairs and the other five are for solo work. The worksheets include a number of different topics for students to choose from – we wanted to bring autonomous learning into the design of this product and providing learners with options in these sessions is a way of empowering greater levels of autonomy. Aside from exploring important pedagogical topics (such as metacognition, independent learning, study skills, revision strategies and self-regulated learning) the presentations encourage students to connect these concepts to their own learning journeys: thus fostering metacognitive awareness and metacognitive knowledge. Aside from fostering these self-regulation and metacognitive skills, this approach to learning also helps to develop research skills, technical skills in relation to presentation design, and presentation delivery skills. The topics covered by the different worksheets are as follows: Metacognition (Solo Work) ‘How to Boost Learning in This Subject’(Solo Work) Revision Techniques & Revision Strategies (Solo Work) ‘Understanding How I Learn Best’ (Solo Work) ‘Boosting My Learning Power’ (Solo Work) ‘How To Succeed in This Subject’ (Paired Work) Being An Independent Learner (Paired Work) Revision Resources, Tips & Tricks (Paired Work) Metacognition & Self-Regulated Learning (Paired Work) Studying Skills (Paired Work) Some of the worksheets refer to subject specific reflections (e.g. #2) whilst others refer to more general metacognitive reflections and knowledge (e.g. #9). The worksheets include an integrated self-assessment system. Each worksheet uses the same basic structure and design, the worksheets cover different topics/options and can be used over time so that students improve each time they engage with the process. Since the worksheets (and PowerPoint files) are editable teachers can adjust contents to more precisely meet their students’ needs.

This thought-provoking philosophy teaching resource focuses on applied ethics and explores some of the most important moral issues of our time. Applied ethics refers to the practical application of moral considerations. It is ethics with respect to real-world actions and their moral considerations in the areas of private and public life, the professions, health, technology, law, and leadership. (Disclaimer: this session does not discuss abortion or matters relating to sexual ethics, reproductive ethics and/or relationship ethics (which will be covered in separate sessions). We have tried to create a resource that allows young learners to explore applied ethics in an age-appropriate fashion; nonetheless, the session explores controversial issues and should be thoroughly vetted by individual teachers before using it with their students to check that it is suitable for their classes.) This session is ideal for teachers who want to explore moral decision making with students and is of particular value to teachers who want to nurture the moral development of their students (perhaps in an SMSC or PSHE context) and trigger deeper reflections on the fundamental nature of ‘right’ and ‘wrong’ and how we can apply these reflections to our own lives; we’ve carefully selected the most significant moral issues and ethical challenges of our age so that young learners can engage in fun philosophical discussions and debates. This session explores topics such as: The rights of animals Moral challenges presented by new technologies Moral and immoral uses of the internet Ethical & unethical career choices Medical ethics and moral challenges presented medical technologies Artificial Intelligence The big question asked in this session is “What is the most important moral issue in the world right now?”. Using a variety of engaging activities students will discuss and debate a wide range of other philosophical questions such as: To what extent is testing new cosmetics and medicines on animals morally acceptable? To what extent it is morally preferable to use drone weaponry on the battlefield over human beings? What are our moral duties and obligations to future generations? When, if ever, is taking a human life the most moral course of action? This resource is suitable for students aged 8-16; due to the flexible nature of the sessions design it can be used for multiple hour-long sessions or as a short stimulating tutor-group activity. The file is a PowerPoint Show: no planning or preparation is required, just run the file and the intuitive menu system will make delivering a powerful philosophy session very easy!

This multi-use interactive learning session explores metaphysics, the field of philosophy concerned with the nature of reality, perception, and existence.

This session is ideal for teachers who want to explore philosophy with students and might be of particular interest to teachers of science (especially physics); we’ve carefully selected the most significant metaphysical issues and questions so that young learners can engage in fun philosophical discussions and debates. This session explores topics such as: The nature of reality The degree to which we can perceive reality directly The nature of the mind and its relationship to reality It outlines and explores different metaphysical views (such as physicalism and idealism) as well as different theories of perception (such as direct realism and indirect realism). The big question asked in this session is “What is the nature of reality?”. Using a variety of engaging activities students will discuss and debate a wide range of other philosophical questions such as To what extent can we perceive reality directly? To what extent is reality an entirely material or physical system? How can a purely physical world generate minds, consciousness and mental experiences? Students will also analyse and evaluate an eclectic mix of philosophical claims such as: “It is impossible to know the true nature of reality” “Trees have experiences” and “The mind is not a material object” This session uses our unique format for philosophy teaching resources and features an integrated menu that allows teachers to select from a variety of starter, main, plenary, assessment and end-of-lesson reflection activities.

This multi-use interactive philosophy lesson explores philosophical and ethical issues relating to space, space exploration and alien life. This session is ideal for teachers who want to explore philosophy in science lessons with students aged 8-16; we’ve carefully selected the most significant issues and questions relating to space and space exploration so that young learners can engage in fun philosophical discussions and debates. This session explores topics such as: Cosmology: the nature and potential origins of space and the universe Ethical issues such as: The rights of native species when colonising planets Terraforming Artificial panspermia The development of space-based weaponry Extra-terrestrial life One of the main philosophical debates explored by this instructional resource concerns ‘the fabric of space’: the debate between ‘Substantivalism’ (the view that space exists in addition to any material bodies situated within it) and the contrasting view ‘Relationalism’ which claims that there is no such thing as space; there are just material bodies, spatially related to one another. According to the relationalist view, what we call ‘space’ is literally just the empty nothingness between things that actually exist (atoms, planets, etc.). The big question asked in this session is “Is colonising other planets actually a good idea?”. Using a variety of engaging activities students will discuss and debate a wide range of other philosophical and moral questions such as: What is ‘space’ made of? (if anything) In what ways might aliens be different to us in terms of how they communicate, think and feel? If you reached the edge of space (the edge of the universe) and threw a rock over the edge: what would happen? To what extent is it a good idea for large corporations to lead humanity when it comes to space exploration? How would the discovery of alien life impact humanity? Students will also analyse and evaluate an eclectic mix of philosophical claims such as: “If aliens exist, they’ll probably be hostile and unfriendly” “The Universe had a beginning, and it will have an end” “It’s more important to focus on fixing the environmental issues on our planet than exploring space” and “Unless we colonise other planets it is only a matter of time before humanity goes extinct” This session uses our unique format for philosophy teaching resources and features an integrated menu that allows teachers to select from a variety of starter, main, plenary, assessment and end-of-lesson reflection activities.

This toolkit will help you to develop study skills with your students; it uses a self-regulated learning approach which encourages students to plan, monitor, evaluate and regulate their approach to study skill development. The download includes: A study-skills reflection workbook A knowledge-hunt lesson about study skills for use with the workbook An additional interactive multi-use lesson focused on study skills The resource draws on pedagogical approaches such as: reflective learning, independent learning, metacognition and self-regulated learning. The development of study skills is a crucial aspect of self-regulated learning for students. Self-regulated learning refers to the ability to effectively plan, monitor, and evaluate one’s own learning process. By acquiring and honing study skills, students gain the tools necessary to take control of their own education. Study skills enable students to approach their studies with intention and purpose, allowing them to set clear goals, manage their time effectively, and employ effective strategies for comprehension and retention. Additionally, study skills empower students to adapt their learning strategies to suit different subjects and learning environments. By becoming self-regulated learners through the cultivation of study skills, students not only enhance their academic performance but also develop valuable lifelong skills that can be applied in various aspects of their personal and professional lives. ** This collection of teaching resources and lesson plans will help your students to develop their study skills!**

This interactive PowerPoint uses a variety of activities to encourage student reflection and establish clear goals and targets. This resource is ideal for quick target-setting activites in lessons or for structuring multiple target-setting sessions. The PowerPoint can be used multiple times with the same groups and encourages students to reflect on targets relating to: work quality, learning power, attitude to learning, subject knowledge, study-skills and long-term strategy. The download includes both an editable file and an automated PowerPoint Show (recommended). The PowerPoint uses an integrated interactive menu that allows you to choose between thirty different activity slides (each with 3-4 activities).

**This download includes over twenty worksheets & printables that focus on target-setting! ** The download includes: 6 x full-page double-sided worksheets 6 x half-page folding worksheets 6 x half-side mini worksheets 6 x small target-setting printables (e.g. 8/page) The download includes editable .doc and easy-print .pdf formats of the worksheets. Target-Setting, Metacognition & Self-Regulate Learning Target-setting in the classroom can help to boost metacognition and self-regulated learning by providing students with clear goals and objectives that they can work towards. When students have a clear understanding of what they are working towards, they are more likely to engage in self-regulated learning behaviors such as planning, monitoring, and evaluating their own learning progress. This can help students to develop a better understanding of their own learning processes and how they can improve their performance over time. Additionally, target-setting can help to promote metacognition by encouraging students to reflect on their own learning progress and identify areas where they need to improve. By setting targets that are challenging but achievable, students can develop a sense of ownership over their own learning and become more motivated to succeed.
