Jill Nottingham – författare

Dialog kan, om den används rätt, vara ett kraftfullt redskap i undervisningen – den hjälper eleverna att koppla samman begrepp och kontext, idéer och frågor, den skapar sammanhang mellan förkunskaper och nytt lärande. En god dialog fördjupar förståelsen, samtidigt som den bygger upp kunskaper och vidgar perspektiven.Här berättar James Nottingham om boken Utmanande dialog. 

I Utmanande dialog har James Nottingham tillsammans med medförfattarna Jill Nottingham och Martin Renton, sammanfattat de bästa sätten att med hjälp av dialoger underlätta för eleverna att gå ifrån att »ha kunskap« till att »verkligen förstå«.

"Jag blir inspirerad av boken och med den som handledning kommer jag att försöka föra in dialogen mer medvetet i min undervisning."Marianne Ericson, BTJ-häftet nr 22, 2016. Läs hela recensionen här.

I varje kapitel finns övningar och strategier att använda för att utveckla dialogen i undervisningen, men även verktyg för reflektion kring den egna undervisningen för en förbättrad pedagogik.

Utmanande dialog är undervisningsnära och vänder sig i första hand till lärare, men är relevant för samtliga pedagoger och även skolledare. 

Boken är rik på strategier, tips, övningar och exempel. Du får exempelvis handledning i hur du:

engagerar dina elever i kvalitativ dialog,skapar ett förtroendefullt klimat,skapar rutiner för att utveckla resonemang,kan arbeta med dialog i små och stora grupper.

Using feedback to enhance learning Feedback has the potential to dramatically improve student learning – if done correctly. In fact, providing high quality feedback is one of the most critical roles of a teacher. But if feedback is not done correctly it can have a minimal – or even negative effect – on learning. Challenging Learning Through Feedback provides educators with the tools they need to establish clear learning intentions and success criteria in order to craft high quality feedback and avoid common feedback mistakes. Readers will learnWhen feedback is (and isn’t) workingHow to design feedback so that it answers three essential questionsStrategies for crafting clear Learning Intentions and Success CriteriaHow to teach students to give high quality feedback to themselves and othersWritten by educational innovators James Nottingham and Jill Nottingham, this book is full of specific examples for educators who want to understand the qualities of excellent feedback and how to craft it.  "Feedback – a noun or a verb? A separate practice or an integral part of the learning process? Something we do ‘to students’ or ‘with students’? The Nottinghams sort it all out for us – the ‘what,’ ‘why,’ and ‘how’ of the process and the practice of feedback."Barb Pitchford, Co-authorLeading Impact Teams: Building a Culture of Efficacy (2016)"Finally a practical book on feedback for teachers! It is written with the teacher in mind, lesson plan in hand, and relevant to all in education. The perfect school-wide study book!"Lisa Cebelak, Education ConsultantGrand Rapids, MI

I boken Utmanande lärande i förskolan visar James Nottingham och Jill Nottingham hur pedagoger på ett konkret sätt kan främja ett utforskande arbetssätt. Med hjälp av nyskapande modeller, strategier och övningar synliggörs hur vi kan använda vårt inflytande för att främja en god undervisningsverksamhet i förskolan. I kapitlen finns sammanfattningar och reflektionsfrågor som stöd för samtal om inställning, omdöme och lärandekultur.

Barn dras lätt mot aktiviteter de redan behärskar, men lär sig betydligt mer av att utmanas. Så hur lockar vi dem att våga pröva nytt, ta risker, vingla och göra fel? Hur tar vi vara på barnens motivation och nyfikenhet för att stärka lärandet?

Utmanande undervisning i förskolan vänder sig i första hand till förskollärare, lärare och pedagoger, men är relevant även för förskolechefer och övrig personal.

Författarna fokuserar på förskolebarnen och hur man ska stärka lärandet och främja ett utforskande arbetssätt för barn i åldrarna 3-7 år. Många väl underbyggda råd och förslag på aktiviteter ges angående hur man ska bemöta barnen för att utveckla deras tänkande, motivation och nyfikenhet. I varje kapitel finns reflektionsfrågor och återblickar som sammanfattar innehållet. Boken är överskådlig och lättläst med många underrubriker och illustrationer samt en detaljerad innehållsförteckning. Den vänder sig främst till förskolans pedagoger men stora delar av innehållet är relevant även för skolans första tre årskurser.
