Stepping Stones

Team teaching today.
A difference of opinion between colleagues[ almost in role ] 3 students kicked out of group, in role as cameramen.
Advice...go on strike, demand a meeting to conclude differences!
A super learning lesson, students in negotiation at end of period.
You really test the comfort levels of colleagues particularly when colleague is less experienced with MoE.

Have you experienced something similar?

By Association...

Andy Kempe has stated that in his experience, he sees many variations of the MoE approach.
In essence, isn't this inevitable?
I have watched Dorothy be pretty flexible in her approach over the years.
Luke Abbot perhaps lacks this flexibility?
In any art form surely to stay static is to hold back both learning and creativity?
It is this element of experimentation that informs my current practice.

I'm pretty sure most practitioners of MoE will agree?

Sometimes 2+2 will do.

You probably know the names.
The supporters and detractors of Mantle of the Expert.
Luke Abbot for, Andy Kempe against.
I want to continue the developing dialogue on this blog.
I believe with the recent growth in the use of MoE in classrooms, a very close analysis of what can, what shouldn't and what will be achieved by using MoE could radically change education for young people.

I have used this approach as a Drama teacher for 17 years, and always used it to teach PSHEE and Citizenship.

Can MoE really drive a whole curriculum?
