Which Matura tasks do your students struggle with the most? How can we help them to improve in the areas they find most challenging, and at the same time encourage them feel positive about the process of preparing for Matura? Working with the most recent details of nationwide performance in the exam, this highly practical session will attempt to deal with these important questions. During the workshop, we will remind ourselves of some of the aspects of the new Matura format and task types, and see how the 3 Ms – Motivation, Memorisation and Meaningful context and practice can work together to prepare for a successful performance on the big day. The session will contain lots of easy to prepare practical ideas and tips, and will be illustrated with material taken from Pearson’s new Matura Focus course.

Jak zaspokoić aspiracje i nie zmarnować potencjału pokolenia wiedzy”. W założeniu miała to być debata o przyszłości edukacji, ale już po kilku wypowiedziach okazało się, że ilość wątków do dyskusji jest zbyt duża i nie sposób będzie o wszystkim rozmawiać. Zaprezentowano zatem dziesiątki stanowisk i opinii

Christopher Robin and Winnie the Pooh learnt that Tigers don't always know what they like best. As teachers, we are sometimes painfully aware that it is equally true for our lower-primary 'Tigers'. Some of them need to jump around, scream and shout, others want to paint or simply be princesses or Batmen.
