1. Core skills 6: Supporting
Learning
Jordan Napier & Mandy Moffat
Welcome! We’ll get started at 2pm.
As you arrive, say ‘hello’ in the chat-box.
2. Ways of working…
• Informal
• Ask questions in the chat box
• Keep your mic muted (unless
you’re speaking)
• Enjoy!
3. By the end of this session, you will be able to:
Consider how to create a supportive learning environment
(whilst teaching in a blended approach)
Discuss ways of identifying students who may be struggling
8. Influencing the
learning environment
'As teachers we can exert a degree of control
over the social and psychological
environment. We can choose whether to be
confrontational or supportive; whether to
encourage or humiliate; and whether to
promote active participation in learning or
passive receipt of knowledge'
Claire Macrae
