GETTING IT!

“Dialogic teaching harnesses the power of talk to stimulate and extend pupilsʼ thinking and advance their learning and understanding. It helps the teacher more precisely to diagnose pupilsʼ needs, frame their learning tasks and assess their progress. It empowers the student for lifelong learning and active citizenship. “

Robin Alexander
