Training Environment and Pedagogy
Here are some steps you can take at the initial stage of your training, to build a supportive training environment:
Creating a learner profile
Start creating a profile for every learner. While creating a profile you must add these key features in it:
- The progress of an English curriculum.
- The progress of key competencies.
- Learning goals of the learner.
Creating a supportive learning environment
A supportive learning environment is less about the physical classroom and resources and more about values and relations.
In a supportive training environment, everyone feels valued and involved.
For this, every student should know that their story matters. For teachers, this means listening and taking the time and opportunities to learn: where the learners have come from, where they are now, and where they want to be in the future.
Enabling e-Learning
Learn about e-portfolios. You will be able to build an e-portfolio using your school’s Learning Management System. Encourage your students to personalize their portfolios.
Building relationships with the learners
There are some ways in which you and your learners can introduce yourselves like- by telling who you are, where you are coming from, your likes, dislikes, and future aspirations?
Building relationships between learners
Here are some key points through which you can build relationships between the learners to make them feel safe and valued?
- Challenge learners with an inexperienced text that has different understandings. Discuss possible meanings, accept the responses, and encourage them.
- Create a discussion medium through your management system.
- Create strategies that will enable the learners to get to get to know each other.
