The Festival of Education, hosted at the spectacular Wellington College, has been running since 2011. It is building a reputation for being the stomping ground for some of the top educational researchers, prominent writers, influential figures and this year even rap stars. But whilst it advertises itself proudly as a ‘festival’ the undertones are very clear – Education is very important and must be recognised as such.

Hello World!
After an inspiring few days at the Festival of Education (http://www.festivalofeducation.com) I thought it was time to delve into the blogging sphere.
As a teacher of Philosophy, Ethics and Religious Studies for 16-18 year olds 
I have a keen interest in opening the minds of students through debates, discussions and engaging learning techniques.
What’s more, as part of my on-going quest for knowledge (I am a Philosophy teacher after all) I am fascinated by the current buzz within educational research.
With this in mind, this blog will share strategies for learning, exam tips and philosophical discussion points, as well as explore a variety of teaching techniques, educational research and the prominent themes that lie at the core of teaching.
Welcome to I Think Therefore I Teach…
