What do we mean when we say "a lesson"? It seems an obvious question, but to each type of school - traditional, mainstream & progressive, what you may see may be markedly different. Today, we question the pros and cons of the traditional "chalk & talk" style lesson and we also ask how such a model supports and differentiates for the wide range of students that we have in our classrooms. Join us for another deep delve into the world of traditional education as we fish for babies and bathwater.
Also in today's show we talk briefly about Salman Khan's Khan Academy
and the influential work of Ernest Boyer and his book, "The Basic School"
