Since Xmas I have embarked on a completely new approach to teaching three Year 10 classes the dreaded and much maligned OCR Nationals ICT course. Yet, it could be said that for the most part I have embarked on not teaching them ICT at all, teaching them apsects of Life Skills, Personal Development, Business Studies, Design etc etc, and then bringing IT into their work at a later date. This has borrowed heavily from lots of research and reading mainly on Passion-Based Learning, the Design Thinking/Problem Finders approach, various inspirational school models and was undoubtedly influenced by Sir Ken Robinson (see end of post for many of these references).
Here is a step-by-step outline of the approach to teaching of this. In my opinion, with the right approach, ICT can and will be an essential part of your students’ learning.
Just an IT Teacher
