Why does it work

Why does it work?

 
If we provide the responsibility for learning back to the learner and teach them skills to manage that approach then we start to see the emergence of a different student. A student engaged in learning.
 
Something powerful happens when students teach students. It’s about:
  • Seeing themselves in control
  • Relating to one another
  • Being involved and making decisions about their own learning
  • Being empowered
  • Taking responsibility for their learning
  • Being involved in authentic learning
  • Making connections and seeing the bigger picture
  • Constant reflection
  • Developing a solid knowledge base
  • Thinking creatively, communicating, co-operating and problem solving in their environment
  • Creating resilient young people with a sense of purpose and belief in a bright and compelling future
