Which method ? How do I know I am doing the right thing? Will the learners learn? Will I be able to handle discipline ?

 IS ALL ABOUT HOW LEARNERS LEARN AND HOW I ( teacher) TEACHES  How do I solve daily problems?  Which principels must hold?  Think critically about what you do and reflect on it (It will not always work) DIDACTIC FELXIBILITY  HOLISTIC development of the learner

Empowering is really what teaching is all about. Ironically, though, many teachers act as if empowering students means weakening themselves--their authority as both a classroom disciplinarian and a subject- matter authority. But maybe power is like love: the more you give, the more you get.

 You are a newly appointed teacher at “Put Sonder Water” and must organise the athletics. It is expected of you to measure out the track. How will you go about?

IN PRACTISE ? HOW DOES IT WORK ?  New ideas – CONNECT - to previous knowledge  Modelling of a complex task and indicate to learners the PROCESS how to do it in order to become independent  “SCAFFOLDING” to build. Provide support on something they do not know and (with draw later) ask questions, give assignments  Learners must be MOTIVATED- teacher supports;  ARTICULATE THEIR ideas (construct, make sense)

 DISCOVERING AND PROBLEMSOLVING ACTIVITIES;  Choices and options concerning task and projects;  FLEXIBILITY –teacher that applies a constructivist approach is pro active and allows the learners to take the lead.  ADAPT- academic learning style.  Variety of answers not only one answer. Makes sense with what is happening  REFLECTION compare their solutions with others (main aspect of learning

 Cognitive development  Language and language development  Physical aspects  Emotional  Self image  Motivation  Pre knowledge (gap/ adapt)  Attitude towards school SITUATION ANALYSIS

 Based on the work of Piaget- a Swiss psychologist –developmental stages  How do children learn and develop (observations)  How do children think?  How do children solve problems?  What do children use to learn/excecute  Learning takes place in FOUR phases

FET phasePre school

 Take note by means of activities and sensory information  Forms internal mental presentations  Sensory -motor phase

 Internalize ideas  How to present things –they think about it  Conserve ( fluid in containers)  Focus on one aspect  Revers ideas (7+5= 12/ 12-7=5)  Perception/ recalls previous happenings

Create different situations for a specific situation in a systematic manner Imagine, create, Analyze

 Vgotsky  Zone of proximal development  Gap  Collaboration  Accommodating all learners (Who ? Why? )  Compare constructivist approach, OBE, NCS

 Recognises the logic stability of the physical world  Elements can change and characeristics can stay in place  Classify  Skills to engage with the familiar aspect

 WHO ARE YOU? Tactile 37% Auditive 24% Visual 29% Why must I change my teaching style?

MULTPLE INTELLIGENCES CANNOT ONLY MAKE USE OF ONE TYPE OF TEACHING METHOD

 Listen attentively (cognitive/ affective )  Give clear guidelines  Give learners a hand out to keep them focused (organise/schedule)  Make use of signs to keep attention. Move around, make eye contact etc.  Create a learning opportunity  Verbal and non-verbal communication  Quality of media  Did you learn something?  Was informed before the time  (Cangelosi)
