Benefits
The LCA student tasks are arguably the most powerful learning opportunities in the Irish secondary school system. Do you want your students to benefit as much as possible from these experiences? If so, invest in our workbooks. They give students:
- Concrete activities to work with, generating material for reports
- A structure for each task with links to key assignments
- A powerful aid to improve their vocabulary.
Busy coordinators find that the workbooks also provide a:
- Useful resource for ALL task teachers to dip in and out of
- Detailed introduction for teachers new to LCA PLUS
- Backup to use whenever a teacher is out.
Coordinators tell us that using the workbooks makes the task process clearer and easier for teachers and leads to greater engagement on the part of students. The thinking, planning and communication skills learnt by students will stand them in good stead in future life, especially when they enter the workplace.
A Coordinator from Co. Tipperary describes the benefits of the workbooks as follows: "The combination of the workbooks and our in-house experience makes the learning from the task more meaningul and worthwhile for students."
