Teaching Production Management in Practice: Using Radios
Practicing these elements before getting to set will help improve their confidence, and testing their knowledge will ensure they feel comfortable with each part of the process.
Students may ask why a mobile phone isn’t just as good as a radio for on set communication. This is an excellent starting point when introducing the use of radios on set.
Teaching Production Management in Practice: Radio Lingo
Using radios effectively and understanding the correct etiquette on set enhances a student’s skills on set and also gives them more confidence to walk into professional scenarios as they are equipped for their surroundings.
To support teaching students on-set radio lingo, we have created an approachable teaching sheet for students, as well as a practical knowledge test sheet which asks students to test what they’ve learned.

Can educators prepare young people for a ‘world without work’?
by Jamie Waller
Technical and vocational training has to be one pillar of our approach. We need technical people who can code, who can build and maintain data centres, who can design the user interfaces through which people access AI services. We need to train them to use Large Language Models such as ChatGPT, so they can prompt them effectively to get the outcomes they want, and verify and critically analyse the information they’re given.
