Using video to enable active learning conference - event postponed

Thu 17 - Fri 18 Feb, 2022

Next Gen, War Memorial Drive, North Adelaide

Due to the current Covid-19 challenges schools are managing, this event has been postponed. Term 2 dates will be released soon.

This is the active learning event you’ve been waiting for …

Discover how you can enable active learning with the use of video in your primary or secondary classroom
Rapidly increase your understanding, skills, experience and know-how
Learn how active learning successfully increases student engagement and achievement
Work closely with Australia’s active learning expert, Jeremy LeCornu from Seaview High School (SA), and other experienced Australian educators who are making it happen and achieving outstanding results

As a proven method to increase student engagement and results, using video to enable active learning makes sense in today’s digital classroom. In a flipped classroom, the student does the lower level (easier) learning individually, and utilises class time for higher level thinking, rich collaboration and maximised learning.

“Teaching is a creative profession - Not a delivery system. Great Teachers do pass on information, but what great Teachers also do is… Mentor, Stimulate, Provoke and Engage.” - Sir Ken Robinson
