DTLLS Class Song

I wrote this in a moment of madness/creativity in half an hour last weekend - who knows why?

To be sung to the tune of ABBA's "Dancing Queen"

We can learn, we can teach; distinction, merit or pass.
Take it down, feed it back – diggin’ the DTTLS Class.

Thursday night and the essay’s due;
Will our theories in use ring true?
Have we referenced our sources; Gravells, Petty, Race -
Got Bloom and Schon in place?
Anybody could mark our work,
Can’t assume they’ll accept our quirks.
Add a plug for Vygostsky; Maslow motivates -
We’re in child ego state,
Let’s differentiate!

We are the DTTLS Class, SMART of aim and truly diverse;
DTTLS Class – reflective journals all getting worse?
We can learn, we can teach; distinction, merit or pass:
See those guys, watch those girls diggin’ the DTTLS Class.

We're assessing and feeding back,
Formative, summative – got the knack!
Struggling with our mentors – if there’s one in reach –
We’ve done our microteach;
My ILP’s in breach...

We are the DTLLS Class, SMART of aim and truly diverse;
DTLLS Class – trying hard not to swear or curse.
We can learn, we can teach; distinction, merit or pass;
Write that SOL, cloze that gap; diggin’ the DTLLS Class.
