Laura Foley, teacher of MFL is currently researching the impact visualizers can have on learning. Here are a few ideas her research group are experimenting with across the curriculum at Hodgson Academy.
We now have 9 visualisers (document cameras) in use at the Academy- a working party gathered last week to discuss technical matters and methods as well as subject specific ideas. They were really excited about the implications and impact on learning in the classroom and particular excitement surrounded ways that DIRT and peer feedback could be modelled using the visualisers. Other great ways of using a visualiser were discussed;

Other great ways of using a visualiser were discussed;
- close-up heart dissection
- annotation modelling
- supporting visual learners
- showing small/delicate artefacts
- calculator demonstrations
- Lego figures for role play (by staff and students)
- key hole/slow reveal technique
- modelling best practice for presentation skills
