ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
In Andalucía (Spain), there is a yearly contest called RetoTech Endesa which is becoming popular among schools. In fact, through the innovation programme STEAM that Junta de Andalucía implements, we receive courses and materials to introduce this active way of teaching in our sessions. At our school, IES Fernando III, we involve students in other projects at provincial and community level.
ATTENTION TO DIVERSITY
Measures to cater for diversity:
1. Glossary to support vocabulary
2. Scaffolding techniques, from Lower Order Thinking Skills to Higher Order Thinking Skills (Bloom, 1956)
3. Heterogeneous groups and different roles in every team.
4. Language frames to improve fluency
5. Reduction or extension of the speaking time
6. Close monitoring by the teacher
7. Multiple Intelligences are considered in the design of the tasks and materials
8. Programmes for the Reinforcement of Learning for students with difficulties
