This is a teacher-training resource comprising 47 slides that I compiled for refreshing teachers on the essentials of teaching and learning.

Topics covered include:
Lesson planning
Active Engagement
Cognitive Load Theory
Learning games
Use of feedback tools like Word Clouds

Curriculum Mapping
Please note: You will need to read through these slides and check them before delivery, as they will need to be tailored to your organisation.
The slides also link to some interactive quizzes Iāve created especially for this workshop at Blooket, Quizlet, Quizziz and so on. These should all be publicly available and working correctly.
Iāve also included some Nearpod slides as a bonus - I recommend that you upload these to Nearpod and create your own lesson in their for that section of the workshop (this wonāt take long, and you can use the free version of Nearpod).

This is my third book (published April 7th 2020). This file is a downloadable pdf. The book includes:
A risk-assessment list for teachers who are involved in online teaching (contains some not-so-obvious things to be aware of)
Tips for teachers when using social media
A list of 100 apps teachers can use for online learning, with advice on how how each one can be used.
Review on Amazon.com, April 17th 2020:
100 Awesome Online Learning Apps is actually quite an AWESOME book. The book is very timely and significant. It lists 100 different apps and divide them in four sub groups,
Communication & Collaboration
Creation
Constructing knowledge
Assessment and Feedback
This helps the book easier to navigate as per your needs. The description of each app is kept crisp and to the point. The author does not bore you with unnecessary details and just sticks to recording what it offers and itās benefits. The whole world has turned to online teaching during these crazy times and it can be very difficult to decide on which app to use for what. One app may suit best for communication while another suits best for evaluation. This book from an experienced teacher and Google Certified educator comes as a relief and helps you decide. Best thing is both students and educators can use this for their benefit. Very useful and helpful.
I created this resource as part of my Powerful Public Speaker Certificate Course for corporate professionals, and I believe that it is a great slideshow for a CPD session you might be running soon.
The PowerPoint is fully editable and has been beautifully formatted, giving it a very professional feel.
In this package you will find:
Slides that cover the 10 Golden Rules of Communication for Online Meetings
A graphic I created on Canva (with link to edit)
A link to a Quizlet I created which is DIRECTLY LINKED to the slides (great for doing Quizlet Live if you have a group training session that you are leading). This Quizlet link is in the final slide.

These slides cover the basics of Dual Coding, which is the process of combining verbal and visual information to improve learning. The idea is simple: when students are presented with both words and images that complement each other, they are more likely to understand and remember the material. This approach taps into the brainās ability to process visual and verbal information through separate channels, creating a more robust memory trace.
This is a great resource to use for a short teacher-training session, such as a PD session or INSET slot.
For schools that are forward-thinking enough to try an Agile approach to project management, these slides are your haven for any teacher-training you wish to do on the matter.
As a Certified ScrumMasterĀ® (CSMĀ®) and project management trainer, I created these slides to form the basis of my popular workshops on Agile, which I run for big organisations all over the world. Please feel free to Google my name to check my credentials: Richard James Rogers.
