Minimal Resource Teaching

Doing more with less

Abstract

Back in 2000, Scott Thornbury proposed that we changed and reevaluated the way we teach based on analogies with a film movement called Dogma 95. In this workshop, we will look at activities that required minimal or no preparation by utilizing the main people in the group as the principal resources so you can spend less time preparing and photocopying. We will also explore the main principles behind a minimal resource approach to teaching and investigate more creative approaches in the classroom.
