This document introduces and discusses Game Sense, a pedagogical approach used in physical education. Game Sense involves modified games that focus on certain skills and encourages student discussion and reflection. It aims to develop students' strategies, awareness, fundamental skills and cognitive thinking through questioning and collaborative problem-solving within a supportive environment. The four main principles of Game Sense are providing a physical learning environment, questioning to encourage discussion and reflection, collaborating and evaluating solutions, and promoting a positive and supportive space. Game Sense allows students of all abilities to be actively involved and helps facilitate participation. Invasion games are suitable for applying Game Sense as students can easily modify rules and work on varied skills and strategies.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
2. What is Game
Sense?
Game Sense is a pedagogical approach
which aims to develop; strategy,
awareness, fundamental skills and
enhance cognitive thinking (Geogakis,
Wilson and Evans, 2015).
Game Sense involves modified games
centred around certain movements or
skills within a sport, ie, throwing,
catching or jumping. As opposed to drill
based learning, students may participate
in a game using these same skills.
Through questioning students can reflect
on key strategies and decision making
within the game
This method allows for a reduction in
disparity of skill, confidence and
cognition between students.
3. The Four
Principles of
Game Sense
Light (2014) argues there are 4 main
principles of Game Sense.
1. Providing a Physical Learning
Environment
2. Questioning to encourage discussion
and reflection
3. Collaborating and evaluating
solutions to problems
4. Positive and Supportive Learning
Environment
Through the application of these four
principles, students will develop
cognition, skill and confidence via the
game sense approach.
4. Rationale
My approach:
As a teacher it is both my passion and
responsibility to use current pedagogical
methods for my students. Game Sense
facilitates an engaging, enjoyable and
active environment within Physical
Education.
Strengths:
Game sense approach involves all
students of all abilities in the teaching
process. Students can direct the lesson
through adapting or modifying a game to
increase or decrease difficulty. This aids
in facilitating participation for students
who lack confidence or ability within the
context of PE.
5. Application
within the
classroom
Invasion based games are an ideal
activity as students can easily modify the
rules. Students can question and discuss
a variety of strategies to attempt within
the game. Additionally, a range of
fundamental movement skills can be
implemented within invasion games. This
is beneficial as these skills relate to
syllabus outcomes PD2-4 and PD2-5
(NSW Board of Studies, 2018). These
outcomes aim to refine movement, skill
and strategies in varying situations.
6. And at Home!
Positive attitudes towards PE is a
collaborative effort. Both teachers and
parents can band together to promote an
active life-style now and into the future.
Parents also use game sense outside of
school through engaging your child in
game sense activities.
