Does cold-calling create an inclusive classroom?

The use of questioning as AFL is a key part of the teacher toolkit and a crucial part of the learning process within a lesson. There are many different approaches to this that include more targeted and closed approaches with differentiated levels of questioning, or more open approaches such as cold-calling where anyone in the room could be called on to respond.  For these discussions and more have your say in the Humanities Subject Community led by Bryony Owen.

Lead a Subject Community

In HPL Online we have been building strong and vibrant subject community forums. They sit within the Professional Learning section under the “Subject Communities tile. If you have not visited these areas before do check them out and have your say on a range of issues in a range of subjects. This year we are looking to expand this team with added subjects represented. If you are a subject co-ordinator or just have a passion for a particular subject and would like to be considered as one of our subject community leaders then contact Mark Tomlins  at

💡 Thinking Education

Leadership coach effectiveness as fostering self-determined, sustained change: 

SN Taylor, AM Passarelli, EB Van Oosten - The Leadership Quarterly, 2019 - Elsevier

According to SN, Taylor et al, "many of the methods used to motivate others to minimise the very motivation essential to change. These commonly used methods all draw people away from the tasks they are supposed to be engaged in to the point that they have little motivation to do them. If efforts to help leaders change themselves are drawing them away from the very changes they need or even want to make, no wonder leaders may struggle to change. In such cases, there seems to be a gap between leaders' developmental experience versus experiencing something that is inherently important, interesting, curious, or genuine (i.e., intrinsically motivating) -  SN Taylor, AM Passarelli, EB Van Oosten - The Leadership Quarterly, 2019 - Elsevier
