Scaffolding with Irony (Higher Education)
Adding humour to a lesson is always a recipe for success. Humour changes the dynamic of the class and helps students to see their lessons with a different frame of mind. This scaffold uses irony – the highest form of humour – to help make potentially dry material more inviting and accessible.

Scaffolding Visual Information in Strips (Higher Education)
When we add strategies in activities that promote critical thinking, collaboration, negotiation and prediction – all through visual means – we’ve created a powerful means of presenting new ideas to our students. This scaffold technique also includes categorisation which, according to Morton Hunt*, one of the pioneers of the study of the mind, has been proven to yield educational efficiency and helps the brain process information more fluidly.

Scaffolding Academic Language – through errors (higher education)
The brain sparks and grows when we make mistakes – even if we are not aware of it – because it is a time of struggle; the brain is challenged, and so this is when it grows the most.* Errors need to be celebrated in our classroom; we need to help our students to embrace the effort they make in their studies and focus on mistakes and successes alike, and not only the outcomes.

Scaffolding with Information Wheels (Higher Education)
Using information wheels in lessons is a wonderful way of honouring our students who need to learn through kinesthetic interaction. With information wheels, your students will use deductive reasoning, negotiate meaning, activate long-term memory, and learn new subject matter, all at the same time. Because they will be interacting with information with their hands, they’ll benefit from the essential transition from social-to-exploratory-to dialogic-to presentational-and…finally…to meta learning.*
