Explain own role and responsibilities in identifying and meeting the needs of the learners As a teacher and trainer I have found that one of the simplest ways to make learning accessible to both myself and to those I am teaching is by relating to real-life situations and circumstances that I have faced. If one takes the approach of trying to memorise lists of facts of how to deal with First Aid situations the information becomes more difficult to absorb and less likely to be retained. Context can

Having explored the three methods of setting ground rules during session 2 of PTTLS course, it is evident that for the ground rules to be effective, determining the appropriate method of ground rules setting is crucial to informing how the learners will be likely to respond to the ‘ground rules’ and how this will later affect the session or sessions to be delivered. The three methods of setting ground rules offer advantages and disadvantages depending on the context of the lesson and the dynamics

interactivity - Online tests and quizzes must be available to offer immediate response to learners. Benefits and disadvantages of E-learning (Grobler et al, 2012): • Benefits: o Extraordinary amount of interaction between the learner and materials o Understanding can be evaluated before the learner moves on o Responses can be personalised to the learner's choices o Topics can be retrieved in an order which suits the learner o Probability for familiarising the learning style to the user's necessities o

responding to the leaners’ and the instructional material. I was self-ware of the decisions I made in and out of class. This is also what I encouraged in my students. Encouraging students to be self-aware, they consciously paid more attention. The learner proactively viewed themselves from the position of their higher self, through their feelings thoughts, decisions, and actions. I expected no less of them than what I expected of myself. Unskilled. Two areas that I am not familiar with, but

Ammar and Spada (2006) investigated the effects of recasts and prompts on L2 learners’ written and oral ability across different proficiency levels. The study fits in with the previous research, as in previously the focus of research was just based on CF being a solution for low levels of grammatical efficiency, which have been explained as the proof against the accuracy of understandable input and exceptionally meaning-based direction. The researchers have thus proposed FFI in CF, which is based

The Role-Play Activity The Role-Play Activity could be the best way to stimulate conversation. By this activity, 1st year EFL learners can learn new vocabulary, words statements and know how to use them in its correct context by asking to perform dialogues, negotiate with your partner on an item such as computer or large piece of furniture, and discuss things such as warranty that are found in (ESLGold, 2010). This activity will help them to know the right place of each discourse and give them an

resources to help demonstrate the mathematical principles they are trying to teach (Dreyfus, 1994). However, not all examples are equally constructed and provide the same learning experience to the learner. Spencer (1978) believes that learners who know principles are more prepared than rule-focussed learners to tackle problems. This is the same within mathematics,

A Change Of Mindset “Our culture, our traditions, our language are the foundations upon which we build our identity (-unknown.)” No one should be labeled as a “slow learner” or “culturally disadvantaged.” Moreover, I believe diversity and expectations from others change someone's point of view of people and the world. No one should be labeled as anything, but should be treated like a human being. People are judged and labeled everyday, culture is one out of many things that are attended to be judged

Computer-based instruction, or CBI, is widely used to deliver content to learners of all ages. Although this form of instructional delivery has become nearly ubiquitous, levels of effectiveness of CBI vary, particularly when considering computer-based instruction for adults. In 2005, researchers Janis Lowe and Elwood Holton, III developed a theory regarding the elements necessary for an effective CBI experience with adult learners and then drew five conclusions based on their investigation. Lowe and
