Summary: | Wouldn't it be great if teachers had the opportunity to produce their own videos and have them broadcast on Teachers TV? Well, that's what Action! Teacher Video is all about; and in this episode you can see a video created by Bruce Warland and Vickie Crombie that asks, What impact does drama have on the standard of children's writing?. This video features some action research carried out at Chad Vale Primary School in Birmingham that looks into using drama to stimulate children's writing. Presenter Xanthe Steen is joined in the studio by Bruce and Vickie, education consultant Adrienne Jones and AST, Lou Harrison, to discuss the project. They talk about the pupils views that are recorded in the video and reveal their enjoyment of the literacy week compared to a week of drama. How did this impact on their writing? They also consider the wider implications of using Teacher Video for assessment and CPD.
