Class structure
We aim to structure each 9am - 12pm class with two breaks of 10 or 15 mins each between three main content/activity blocks, for example:
| Time | Example content | |
|---|---|---|
| 9:00 to 9:10am | Setup | Pre-class review & Questions |
| 9:10 to 9:50am | Content block 1 | Lecture content 1 |
| 9:50 to 10:00am | Break 1 | Discuss and circulate with students |
| 10:00 to 10:45am | Content block 2 | Hands-on activity |
| 10:45 to 11:00am | Break 2 | Discuss and circulate with students |
| 11:00 to 11:45am | Content block 3 | Lecture content 2 / Hands-on activity |
| 11:45 to 12:00am | Wrap-up | Post-class review & Questions |
