Curriculum Speed Dating Mind Map


Teachers were tasked with taking one tool from the Institute and using it to generate curriculum ideas for their specific subject. Through a round of speed-dating they had to marry their tool and subject to another teachers in just three minutes. By the end of one round teachers had met with seven other teachers and developed seven new cross-disciplinary curriculum ideas. Teachers were asked to refine one of their ideas and write a lesson plan delineating the learning activity. Teachers then affixed their intention and lesson plans on to a large poster or ‘mind map’ and drew arrows between their intentions, tools, subjects and lessons.
