This video is about Minimax in Workstations. The speaker, Hartwill, is a teacher who has been using this strategy for seven years. She believes that Minimax is a great way to include all students in the learning process.
Minimax is a strategy that helps teachers use minimum effort, resources, and energy to achieve maximum student outcomes. It is especially useful for teachers who have mixed ability classes.
Workstations are clearly designated areas in the classroom where students can engage in specific learning activities. They are typically structured according to the TEACH strategy, which stands for Treatment and Education of Autistic and Related Communication Handicap Children.
Workstations can be used for students of all ages and abilities. They are a great way to differentiate instruction and meet the needs of all learners.
Hartwill recommends starting with two workstations and gradually increasing the number as needed. She also suggests using a variety of activities, such as visual, writing, and kinesthetic activities, to engage all learners.
Hartwill believes that Minimax in Workstations is a great way to create a more inclusive and engaging classroom. She encourages all educators to try this strategy and see the positive impact it can have on their students.
