soñando cuentos: autoestima Hay veces en que nos empeñamos en mirar hacia arriba, omnubilados por aquello que nos parece bello y a la vez inalcanzable y no nos damos cuenta, ni nos paramos a pensar, que a nuestra misma altura, delante de nuestros propias cejas, hay infinidad de cosas que son alcanzables y a la vez maravillosas; cosas, objetos, personas a las que no les damos oportunidad de mostrarnos su hermosura, porque nos les prestamos atención alguna. Para estos casos sería recomendable que todos y todas pudiésemos tener a nuestro alcance unas "gafas de ver", pero no nos referimos a una gafas de pasta o metal ¡de esas algunos ya las tenemos!, sino unas auténticas gafas que nos permitan ver las cosas sencillas que nos rodean, las hermosuras que tenemos delante, muy cerca y a las que nunca echamos cuenta, por empeñarnos muchas veces en admirar la belleza de lo que, por inalcanzable, nos parece grandioso. Sin duda, nos ha encantado esta divertida y, a la vez, tierna historia de Margarita del Mazo.

Developing an eagle eye In this recorded webinar, Andrea Soanes and Lyn Rogers look at the importance of observation as a fundamental aspect of the nature of science and explore relevant activities on the Science Learning Hub. The webinar was designed to inspire teachers to actively look for opportunities to build students’ observation skills. The focus is on how to use observation to engage students in science and to build their understandings of the nature of science whilst developing science capabilities. Developing an eagle eye Video recording of the 'Developing an eagle eye' webinar. Watching the recorded webinar creates an opportunity for participants to engage with some simple observation activities and ideas, and it discusses how these can be used to foster students’ curiosity about their world. Thank you so much! The PowerPoint and recorded webinar provide ideas and information that will support teachers of any year level to: PD – gets the brain churning and excited.

Introduction Welcome to the Brain and Senses! Hi, we are Dr Ellen Poliakoff and Dr Luke Jones and we’re experimental psychologists. This means that we find out how people think and how the brain works. When we are not teaching – or lecturing as it’s called at University! – we can be found doing experiments in the laboratory. Ellen is finding out about how we move and Luke is doing experiments about how we understand time. Luke’s research Do you find that time passes quickly when you are having fun, but crawls along slowly when you have to do something boring? We think that we have an internal clock in our brains that we use to answer questions like these: How long did the event last for? How long will it be until something happens? How long ago did it happen? How well do we remember how long something lasted for? I’m particularly interested in finding out lots more about the latter. Ellen’s research
