I have noticed the tendency of younger members of the PGCE cohort seem to do an awful lot of talking across lecturers and this has been extremely annoying. I'm grateful that one of my colleagues mentioned this to the group at the end of module wash-up but I was horrified by the reaction of the chief culprits. Basically, they seemed completely unaware of their own behaviour, despite reaching the ludicrous levels of asking the lecturer to repeat things they hadn't heard because they were gassing!
As the topics for this module have included learned behaviour, I can only assume this must be an example of the influence of school/college/university tutor behaviour. Has it been 'tolerated', ignored or just badly handled? What I do know is that it's never going to happen in any session I teach, for my sake, the other students sake, and and other tutors who might inherit the miscreant in the future.
It might be difficult to unlearn, but I will do my best to help them!
