Hi everyone,

I'm wondering if any of you can share what good practice or strategies you have seen being used effectively in digital classrooms, I.E. classrooms with computers in as a majority, so I am thinking Graphic Design, Comp Sci, 3d design maybe, things like that.

Especially around behaviour management, but I am also interested in best practices around breaking up the lesson and acknowledging "yes, this is a computer room." "No, we're not gaming."

Was chatting with a friend of mine today who works private sector and we got to talking about the difference between 6 weeks holiday verses just booking annual leave as and when you like.

He said: "Couldn't you ask for unpaid leave." when we were talking about the huge price difference and I was like: "ERm... I don't think... schools do that... Do they?" Do they?

I have seen a few posts that talk about the difference between temporary and permanent TLR.

I assume for example, a permanent TLR would be something offered with, say, a HOD position or HOF role.

But what are temporary TLR's for? For example, if I was hoping to explore a curriculum opportunity could I approach the head and say look... I have this idea, this is why I think it would work. I would like to explore it...

Because I do have a good idea and I think it would really work for the school.

But to be blut reddit, I don't think I'm paid enough to take it on on my own as it stands on my current wages.

am I living in the world of make believe, does this sort of thing ever happen?
