Be a facilitator not a teacher - #7 in our series on problem-based learning. Obvs facilitator means 'to make easy'. That's our job. We make solving problems easier for learners . Choosing the direction is their job. @EUErasmusPlus @EnginiteErasmus buff.ly/2OEk5dY

Principle 6 for problem-based learning: let the learners decide what they do & don't know. Just because you say something doesn't mean you know what was heard. Applies to life and learning! buff.ly/2LNQxfO #PBL #pblchat #learning #pedagogy @EUErasmusPlus @EnginiteErasmus

Our friends at @BeepStudioUK are running a really cool workshop for 15-18 year-olds - Skill Up: Style Wars. It's a design brief with a difference: you have to take on a particular architectural style in your response. Please help spread the word if you can buff.ly/2DYzSSn
