Presenter: Dr Alison Morgan, Associate Professor and Head of Secondary Teacher Education, CTE

Title: Being Comfortable with Being Uncomfortable’: How Radical Pedagogies can Develop Socially Inclusive teaching spaces.

Outline: Beginning with an exploration of critical pedagogy, this session aims to introduce participants to a number of pedagogies aimed at tackling the current trend for knowledge dissemination in education. Underpinned by cultural theories, these pedagogies champion learner agency and a developed understanding of how to create socially inclusive classrooms. Following the introduction of a range of these radical pedagogies, participants will have the opportunity to consider how they can be applied to their own phase or subject.

Title: Understanding and Supporting Learners with ADHD.

Outline: ADHD can present challenges in the classroom for both teachers and children, but often less discussed are the strengths that children with ADHD have. In this session we’ll explore both sides of ADHD characteristics, talk about the variability of the condition across children, and some common co-occurring conditions. We’ll also talk about how ADHD impacts on children’s learning and behaviour, and some strategies to help children to engage positively in the classroom.
