The Physics Teacher

In this film from Teachers TV, physics teacher Jason Drewett Gray receives feedback from his students on what they think of him as a teacher and how they rate his lessons. Whilst he has been observed by colleagues or inspectors on many occasions, he has never asked for the opinions of his students. He chooses a lesson on diodes, a subject that he thinks his class will find challenging.

After the lesson, a panel of six students record their views for Jason to watch later. Their opinions are well-constructed and generally thoughtful, but Jason still finds some of them hard to take as they challenge both conventional educational wisdom and aspects of Jason's personal style.
