Wouldn't it be great if teachers had the opportunity to produce their own videos and have them broadcast on Teachers TV? Well, that's what Action! Teacher Video is all about; and in this episode you can see a video created by The Aveley School in Essex and called 'PRIDE'. Teacher Huw Derrick talks about the aims of the project and the research carried out. How did the students respond to the challenge of presenting to a professional ad agency? How did they interpret curriculum subjects as TV adverts and posters? What were the gains in their learning? Presenter Xanthe Steen is joined in the studio by Huw, education consultant Adrienne Jones and teachers Alex Gibbons and Laura Harris, to discuss the project. They talk about the key issues of developing creativity, a relaxed curriculum, building self-esteem and confidence, and valuing the student voice. They also consider the wider implications of using Teacher Video for recording, assessment and CPD.
