New from the TU Mentoring Team! We are producing a regular podcast as another way to engage with our wonderful mentors. Short and snappy – best enjoyed over a coffee break or marking books, the idea is that we bring you reminders of important upcoming dates for yourselves and the trainees, keep you up-to-date with course developments and interesting research, and provide a therapeutic output for our strongly held opinions on fruit cake.
Episode 1: The pilot is around the 8 minute mark and can be found below! Comments and feedback welcome as always!
Audio PlayerEpisode 2: St. Valentine’s Day: The only day when neither of us had diary bookings. Draw your own conclusions. We discuss observations for BA and PGCE, setting of SMART targets, tripartite meetings and some interesting research on GenAI vs pen and paper! Comments and feedback always welcome! Click to download or listen online.
Audio PlayerEpisode 3: School Librarian’s Day (US): Information on BA End-of-Placement Reports, plans for financial literacy lessons for primary and secondary pupils, pilot programmes on AI tools for teachers and how trainees are engaging with AI at Uni. Mentor shout outs and unpopular opinions on Simnel Cake – Have a great Easter everyone!
