4.4 The teacher’s role
You’ll now move on to think about the planning stage and the place of the teacher in facilitating this.
Activity 7
You are now going to watch a film where Dr Nadia Hindi, an academic at the University of Granada, Spain, discusses the role of the teacher or youth leader in the docutube process. After watching the film, note down the main points you took from her reflections on the planning process.
Discussion
There are various points made in the film, but perhaps one of the most important is to allow the young people to be creative, to take the lead in the process and to be open to them making connections to their own experiences.
