Psychology in the Classroom ·

It's really hot today! Some schools have closed, others have cancelled events such as sports day. But how much does weather really affect our mood and behaviour. Does wind really make kids a bit wild? It is the last episode of the year and as a bit of fun I have been researching how weather affects us and the implications this might have in the classroom.

In this second podcast with Professor Willem Kuyken, we explore mindfulness - what it is, how it can be practised and how it can benefit mental health.

We consider the many facets of mindfulness such as curiosity, kindness and compassion and how we learn mindfulness through our everyday lives and other people. We discuss how our attention has become a commodity that social

Psychology in the Classroom ·

2022/06/27

This is the second of the RE-STAR research project episodes, taking a 'behind the scenes' look at the planning, considerations, challenges and applications of a large research project over 4 years. Many young people with neuroatypicalities such as ADHD and ASD traits develop depression during adolescence – but we currently don’t know which individuals are at risk, what underlying processes increase that risk or, perhaps most importantly, the best way to intervene to increase resilience to reduce

Psychology in the Classroom ·

In this week's episode I talk to Dr Ben Looker from the University of Worcerster's Social Psychology of Education Research Group about the importance of the Pupil-teacher relationship, what his research has shown and strategies on how to repair damaged

Psychology in the Classroom ·

2022/05/30

Psychology in the Classroom has been up and running for almost two academic years and by the end of the term will have just shy of 100 episodes.

This week I reflect on the 3 things I will be taking into my teaching when I return to the classroom in September. And as I start to prepare the podcast for September do let me know what you'd like to hear more about.

Powerful Learning with Patrice Bain

Psychology in the Classroom ·

2022/05/02

When do we teach pupils how to learn? For most the answer is never, it is an assumption that they know how to get information into their memories in an effective way. Patrice Bain is on a mission to change this and is an experienced teacher who has worked with cognitive scientists for over 15 years to develop effective methods to support pupils' learning. Today she talks about the four powertools - Retrieval practice, spaced learning, feedback driven metacognition and interleaving and what these

Exam Preparation: Planning Revision

Psychology in the Classroom ·

2022/04/21

Planning revision requires practice and thought and yet we very rarely teach or model good revision planning with our students. In this podcast we look at the when (creating a realistic timetable), what (what to revise and how to set revision targets) and how (how to map what you want to learn onto your timetable) of revision planning to ensure that time is well spent both in and out of the classroom, we also consider how we as teachers can model what good revision sessions look like (using the

Exam Preparation: The Teenage Brain, Revision & Reward

Psychology in the Classroom ·

2022/04/20

Between the ages of approximately 10 and 25 the brain undergoes a huge change. Whilst this is happening we see what is typically described as ‘teenage behaviour’ - emotional, irrational decision making, risk taking behaviour, parents becoming less important and peers becoming more important, none of which is ideal for revision. If we use what we know about teenage neuropsychology though we can perhaps encourage revision and make it more palatable for young people. This podcast considers 3 ways

Exam Preparation: Control the Controllables

Psychology in the Classroom ·

2022/04/19

A little bit of stress is not a bad thing - it helps motivate students to revise for exams, but too much or too little can lead to students giving up on revision for a variety of reasons. But how can we enable students to deal with exam stress (the worrying thoughts they may have) in the build up to exams. In this podcast we look at two strategies - controlling the controllables and ‘if…then …’ thinking. If you want to learn more about helping students manage exam stress and anxiety both in the

Exam Preparation: Retrieval Practice

Psychology in the Classroom ·

2022/04/17

Retrieval practice is quite simple the act of retrieving information from memory and research has shown that the process of retrieving information aids information retention more strongly than simply reading information through. The challenge is getting students to do retrieval practice more than looking over notes or watching youtube when they are revising for exams. In this video we consider the research that underpins retrieval practice and ways that you could implement retrieval practice in
