WELCOME TO MY BLOG



This blog has been created as an assessment requirement for the module Understanding Pedagogy and Learning Theories (CST413)

On this blog I will be posting articles, links, other relevant material and some critiques on the concept of learning theories and pedagogy related to the topics on the right hand side of this page.

I would like to request my fellow colleagues to follow up on those postings and share their thoughts on the content. We all understand that due to our busy schedule and personal commitments we may not be able to give our full input, as we wish, into reading and researching and commenting further on the articles. However, that little extra effort goes a long way into achieving our goals.

Let me tell you all that it has been a pleasure working on the workshops on our blocks and much has been learnt (not necessarily knowledge) from the experiences that we shared, many of us working as school-heads and being responsible for the total development of practices, policies and procedures in schools which will be vital for the improvement and maintenance of quality in much of this neglected sector - education. 

Further let me also acknowledge the input provided by our lecturers who had worked with us tirelessly through the whole of the week-end (second block) when they were supposed to be spending their time with their families or at least taking a rest in preparation for the next working week.

As a final reminder, please do post as much as you can on your blogs and I too will give my time and input in giving some constructive comments on them. 



Kind Regards
