Short Films | The Best Short Films Free Thinking: Shaken Not Stirred prov·o·ca·tion (pr v -k sh n) n. 1. 2. Our brain needs it. In an inquiry-centered environment learning provocations abound. The recipe? What are some ways to put that into practice in a classroom? 1. Because they are worth a thousand words. Use various strategies: – I See / I Think / I Wonder – Silent Conversation – Musical Tables etc. There are millions of photos available that can be used in inquiry on various concepts – poverty, conflict, power, gender, multiculturalism, pollution – basically anything and everything. Where is this beautiful city with skyscrapers? It is in Africa, more exactly in Congo. The power of photography. 2. I always use high quality photographs and add intriguing, confusing, or simply powerful words. 3. Whenever I use posters I am looking for simplicity…even minimalism “because it eliminates the obvious and adds the meaningful”. *You can print your posters in a really big format here. 4. Need I say how important they are in triggering thought and emotion? 5. 6. 7. 8. 9.
All at C | Video Lesson Plans for Teachers The power of a provocation… Whether it ignites an inquiry or shifts the gears of learning, if it’s fuelled by careful consideration and clear intentions, a ‘provocation‘ can drive powerful learning. Considering the ‘power of provocations’ with our Lana Fleiszig recently, teachers explored the purpose of provocations, what could be used as provocation and the teacher’s role in the provocation process. The most important question, though, is what might the provocation reveal about our learners, their thinking and learning and where to next? Our teachers collaboratively developed a list of questions to consider when designing provocations: Might the provocation excite/engage the learners and ‘hook’ them into learning? We’re looking forward to taking it further in the coming ‘ Reveal’ workshop with Sam Sherratt exploring ‘what it means to be aware of, receptive to and curious about what our students are revealing to us so that we can be constantly inquiring into our students and adjusting our planning accordingly.’

55 Incredible Photos Of Girls Going To School Around The World Uncomfortable by Design: A Series of Deliberately Inconvenient Everyday Objects - 99% Invisible Designers are regularly called upon to develop innovative products for everyday problems. Thinking even further outside the box, one designer is working in reverse on innovative ways to problematize existing solutions with results that are “designed to annoy you.” “This project started after I failed to finish my studies in industrial design around 2011,” explains Athens-based architect Katerina Kamprani, “and it has continued to grow ever since.” Forks, mugs, keys, watering cans, wine glasses, chairs, even staircases and doors — no household object is safe from her frustrating manipulations. Sometimes, the twist is slight — rearranging the intersection of a broom and its handle, for instance, without changing either core element fundamentally. But this small change makes a big difference. A redesign can also be dysfunctional while remaining aesthetically appealing, like a forked champagne flute or wrapped wine glass.
