10 ways my thinking has changed« 1. I used to think it was about the teaching . Now I think it¶s all about the l earning . 2. I used to think my students learned best sitting facing the fr ont of the classroom. Now I think they need to sit in groups, in order to collaborate and construct meaning together . 3. I used to think the classroom needed to be quiet and I needed to be in control . Now I think noisy lessons where the kids are engaged often reflect learning at its most vibrant. 4. I used to think silence had to be filled by repeating the question or asking a different question. Now I think silence means every student has enough time to think . 5. I used to think differentiation meant setting different tasks for different abilities. Now I think digital tools often provide nat ural differentiation for different levels, abilities and interests. 6. I used to think every student had to put up his hand before he spoke and all conversation had to go through me . Now I think the best discussions are ones where the kids are responding to each other and I¶m out of the picture . 7. I used to think that praising kids was necessary positive reinforcement .
