Cambridge University Press organized Global Schools festival from November
24th till November 26th. The talks focused on trying to give an answer to the
big questions about the future of teaching and learning in schools around the
world. If you missed the sessions you can now watch them on Global Schools festival YouTube playlist.
I would higly recommend you to watch Nik Peachey's session on "Building rapport in the remopte classroom".
The session covers a number of issues related to building rapport with and among remote students. This includes:
- Setting up
the webcam and working with the visible space effectively.
- Being aware
of how you use your voice
- Building
remote teams so that students work collaboratively
- Building
positive classroom dynamics
- The
importance of socialisation
- Empathising
with students
· Nik Peachey provides teachers with practical tips and advice as well as some suggestions for activities that
help promote a stronger interpersonal connection in the remote classroom.
