Advancing Learning Podcast

For this Global Teachers' Festival Special, Harry and Will are joined by the British Council and International House's Pilar Capaul.
This episode looks at the role of a trend. While exploring some of today's most talked about subjects, they explore how (and if) discussions being had at conferences and social media transfer to the reality of today's classrooms.
What do you think? Are the conversations really helping the art of teaching progress, or is it contained within a separate arena that doesn't get the space to impact the world for real?
Have a listen and make up your own mind!

Do you teach critical thinking skills in your classroom? How do you go about it? And why do you feel the need to teach them?
The unstoppable Chia Suan Chong at long last joins the Advancing Learning Podcast to discuss what forms critical thinking takes, and how it can be addressed in all its many shapes and forms in today's world.
