Teachers TV helps improve learning
Cameras in the classroom have been informing teachers about their practice and giving them feedback on lessons. In a pilot project between Teachers TV and St Boniface's College, Plymouth, eight pupils filmed their teachers and discussed elements of the lessons that worked well and enhanced learning. The process was used in a programme screened last month about the 'Teacher Development Team' at the school. Paul Scott, winner of the 2005 TDA Award for Outstanding New Teacher of the Year, and project organiser said: 'Even our youngest students had a mature attitude towards this. They felt empowered and fed back to other students, which has had a positive impact on attitude and respect.'
