How can educators teach children to think critically? For most of us, that's the holy grail of teaching. In the latest _American Educator_, I take a look at the cognition underlying critical thinking and practices to promote it. (open) aft.org/ae/fall2020/willingh…

So at KS3, we are in a distance learning phase for the foreseeable future. Looking for ideas for great KS3 Computer Science zoom lessons, 40min slots. Really want to ensure enthusiasm for the subject from a distance. Any fab ideas?

So looking at creating some Computer Science versions of this!
National Geographic is always a good go-to if you're wanting to incorporate longer texts into KS3 lessons. I've seen this technique used in History to help analyse sources, so thought I'd try adapt for Geography. Print on A3 and pre-teach the tier 3 vocab.
