High school lesson plans from Religion & Ethics Weekly, PBS
Collaboration
Some strategies are useful when writing collaboratively.
New Century College lists some of these strategies.
Facilitation
Goodpractice.net has a good list of ideas in its trainer's toolkit but you need to be a member to access the full description
Icebreakers & Warm Ups - to introduce students to each other or to kick-start a lesson
Energisers - to rejuvenate a flagging group, stimulate creativity or introduce a degree of fun into a training session
Review & Evaluation exercises - suitable for use at the end of any training session or workshop
This page by Henley College Coventry Student Services has a range of teaching and learning resources- icebreakers, trust, energisers, issue-based exercises, communication exercises, teamwork exercises. Unfortunately, the activities are packaged as Word documents and require downloading and opening using Microsoft Word, which takes a bit more time. I have therefore unpacked and included some of them in this wiki with my comments.
