A 3-hour workshop facilitated by our Head Coach for prospective Fellows participating in the 2024 Teach For Nigeria Pre-Service Institute on the topic 'Learning Experience and Design: An Exploration of Learning Theories and their Application in the Classroom.' Joanna Temlong discussed the fundamental principles of the Cognitivist, Constructivist and Behaviourist approach to Teaching and Learning in the classroom. Mrs Temlong started the workshop by asking the question: 'Why is it important to understand learning theories as a teacher?' Once the foundation was laid, participants where guided through the features of each learning theory and were asked to continuously reflect on 'what would your role look like in the classroom as a Cognitvist/ Constructivist/ Behaviourist teacher?' The session was thought-provoking and provided opportunities for practical applications and engaging discussions. Participants were divided into break-out rooms where they completed a group task to assimilate their learning. An after-class assessment and feedback were also issued. #teachertraining #onlineworkshop #professionaldevelopment

LEARNING CONTINUES... 🤗😁 ✅🇳🇬💚✅🇳🇬💚✅🇳🇬💚 One of the things Teach For Nigeria (TFN) prioritises is the continuous training and development of us TFN Fellows and today witnessed another pedagogical learning experience with Joanna Temlong of Fassara Education who facilitated the Zoom Training session. As a 21st Century Educator, I am happy to be reminded how the choice of my teaching methods and learning theories matter in the learning experience of my learners. In deed, learning never ends for anyone who wishes to make impacts and lead. Thank you TFN for offering us these opportunities to learn.

A thought provoking conversation with Paul A. on ‘Rebuilding Africa’s Education System’. He emphasised the necessity for all citizens to understand and play an active role in developing our Education system. It cannot solely be left to country governments, but local authorities and communities should devise systems to ensure that educative initiatives are implemented and most importantly, maintained. Africa has certainly made measurable progress with increasing the number of students going to school, efforts to integrate technology in the classroom and more. HOWEVER, there is still much work required to meet SDG4 targets and in creating a robust system that is accessible for all. As a Continent, it is important that we take advantage of our demographic dividend. With a large youth population, countries should invest in Education. We need to adequately prepare and upskill students for the labour force & cultivate their potential! Everyone should be a Stakeholders in Education 📌📌 For the full conversation : https://lnkd.in/dmQYwCCR 🔗

This month, Fassara Education was invited to facilitate a session on ‘Building the Future of Africa’s Education system’ at the Innovation for Future Africa (IFFA) Summit hosted at Baze University. Key themes discussed include: • Identifying current challenges faced in Africa’s Education system (e.g. insecurity, girls’ education, unqualified teachers, teacher shortages, digital literacy, poor learning outcomes…) • Discussing recommendations to mitigate identified challenges • Understanding & optimising the advantages unique to the Continent (i.e. large youth population) • Emerging innovations & the growing EdTech market At the end of the session, participants were tasked to work in teams and develop an innovative solution to address a specific Educational challenge in Africa. They followed the evaluation criteria and submitted their presentations 👍. The workshop was highly engaging and collaborative! A key emphasis.. “Investing in Africa’s education system is an investment in innovation and prosperity for the whole world.” (UNICEF)

We were privileged to have Alec Castro (Lead Practitioner of Staff Development, UK) host an IMPACTFUL session on ‘Scaffolding to Support All Learners in the Classroom’. Some key points that were discussed include: • Creating an intentional curriculum design that includes the needs of all students. • Understanding that ‘good teaching for pupils with SEND is good teaching for all.’ • Defining and understanding how to ‘scaffold’ effectively to support all students in the classroom. • Discuss scaffolding strategies : Visual scaffolds, Verbal scaffolds and Written scaffolds that can be used in the lesson immediately. Participants were engaged & provided very positive feedback. We look forward to seeing you at our next session. #staffdevelopment #teachertraining #onlineworkshop
