As an effective and engaging SCOT teacher your lesson could include:

• a live or pre-recorded video message to start the lesson
• clear written instruction for the lesson intention (using OneNote, Seqta, Teams, and/or Seesaw. etc)
• a 15 minute (maximum) instruction
• added interactive enhancements such as a Form, quizlet and/or Kahoot, etc.

Once instructional component of the lesson is completed the teacher engages with students to check for understanding.

• Read their contributions to the chat out loud and use students’ names
• Use of video so the face to face feel of teaching is maintained
• Call on boys, don’t wait for them to ask questions. They can respond using microphones or chat. Keep track of who has spoken and who hasn’t, as you would in a real classroom.
• Don’t lose time whole class time on individual technical issues.  Eg. if a student’s mic is not responding, ask them to use chat instead, and then check in with them after class. Or call on another boy.
• Use Forms or Polls as formative assessment tools during the lesson.  Call on students by name whose submission you are still waiting for.
