Teaching & Learning Ideas

I was thinking the other day about how to approach teaching a lesson with the new Edexcel AS Specification when I had reason to walk into my colleague's teaching room to find her class doing Geographical Speed Dating with coastal defences. This started me thinking; Do we have a list of teaching strategies to refer to when planning lessons?

If you are anything like me it is so easy to forget the huge list of ideas that have come to light over the last 5 or 10 years so I thought I'd start compiling list and encourage people to add to it.
