Kevin James is a teaching assistant who supports students with learning difficulties. He created an instructional movie using iPads to teach students how to make a cup of tea for an alien. The lesson objectives were for students to communicate effectively, work independently and in groups, understand instructions, identify how to make tea, and use technology to create an instructional movie. Students worked in a small group to film steps to make tea using iPads, and will evaluate their work upon completion. The goal is to help students learn through an engaging visual aid.

(SEN) pupils
 The pupils are KS4 but their ability is lower more like KS3. They
are studying OCN’s and entry level in English which is the area
we will identify to compare and link (cross curricular) for this
learning task (Instructional Writing/ICT).

8. THE EVALUATION
 Observation form on pupil and teachers learning experience –
Observation
 What happened – The children had clear aims and performed the task effectively
with little distractions or assistance. It was clear to see that nearly all felt
confident which is a massive hurdle we continually try to overcome with SEN
pupils. I feel the time spent planning and preparing enabled me to construct a
fun, diverse, and inclusive learning environment. In the future after discussing
with my teacher I feel I could be clearer with the learning outcomes at the start of
a lesson which will enable me to quickly gain the pupils focus and understanding.
 For the children it helped them engage and include them in the lessons .
 The Children also review their preferred methods of learning from the task with almost
everyone choosing the 'Visual’ I Pad aid. They evidenced their findings with charts and
graphs.
 My Review comments of ICT and education.
