ON Changing Through Dialogue

M

any changes are being effected in the absence of a dialogue. For an effective and positive change to take place, parties must learn to enter into a dialogue; bringing their inner world into the open and let it be known without the fear of discrimination, criticism, and isolation. According to Kulikova (2005), in a dialogue, one must make an effort “to hear the strings of the human heart.”

HRSS

This workshop focuses on the notion of learning styles and its link to efforts to meet the learning needs of the learners to raise learning effectiveness. There is a general acceptance that the manner in which learners choose to or are inclined to approach a task or a learning situation – their learning styles – have an impact on performance or achievement of learning outcomes. This preferred manner has been characterised in several different ways based on a variety of theoretical models. The models essentially cover three main aspects of how learners learn: perceiving information, processing information, and organizing and presenting information.

Test Construction

Developing a good test is like target shooting, it needs to make valid conclusions about students’ learning. It also needs to be reliable. This means hitting the target requires planning; it starts with choosing a target, select an appropriate arrow, and taking careful aim. You must determine the purpose for the test, and carefully write appropriate test items to achieve that purpose. The test specifications identifies the objectives and skills which are to be tested and the relative weight of each item. This procedure necessarily precedes the development of any test. These specifications provide a “blueprint” for test construction. In the absence of such a blueprint, test development can potentially proceed with little clear direction compromising the validity and reliability of the test. One must be mindful that the test specifications cannot and should not remain static. In this workshop, participants will be given hands-on experience of test construction.

Multiple Intelligences and Learners

Howard Gardner’s theory of multiple intelligences has made a major impact on education. This workshop focuses on how learning and the learners in particular figure in this theory. Gardner posits the existence of a multitude of intelligences, eight in all, which exist quite independently of each other, as opposed to the traditional notion of intelligence as a single entity. This workshop will engage participants with these eight intelligences (linguistic, logical-mathematical, musical, bodilykinaesthetic, spatial, interpersonal, intrapersonal, and naturalistic intelligence), tease out their core features as well as explore their strengths and weaknesses. Of crucial importance in the context of the theory’s utility to classroom teachers, this workshop will also explore how learners and learning are viewed through the lens of each of these intelligences. But, the theory is not without criticisms, and the workshop will also cover this aspect to provide a more informed view of the theory.

Designing a curriculum

A curriculum is a means to an end and one’s key role that lectures play is designing curriculum that meets the valued ends in mind. At Taylors’s University, to ensure its graduates achieve the valued ends, that is they can adapt and function productively in their personal, social, civic and professional lives it requires that any curriculum designed for its students be framed by two key standardsdefining documents: Taylor’s Graduate Capabilities Standards (TGC) and the Teaching and Learning Framework (TLF).
