Recommended: Critiques of student engagement

The two International Board of Standards for Training, Performance and Instruction (ibstpi) competencies that are most important to my practice of instruction in an adult learning environment are: Provide clarification and feedback and Promote retention of knowledge and skills. These two competencies allow students to codify learning in ways that they can receive feedback and apply new knowledge. For instance, instructors can create a venue to provide context for learners to request feedback on new knowledge application. Instructors may use a myriad of methods/techniques (e.g., case studies, demonstrations, etc.) to promote teacher-student engagement, allowing recommendations to flow smoothly. Students can also provide their own feedback

    For most people who have ridden the roller coaster of primary education, subtracting twenty-three from seventy is a piece of cake. In fact, we probably work it out so quickly in our heads that we don’t consciously recognize the procedures that we are using to solve the problem. For us, subtraction seems like something that has been ingrained in our thinking since the first day of elementary school. Not surprisingly, numbers and subtraction and “carry over” were new to us at some point, just like everything else that we know today. For Gretchen, a first-grader trying to solve 70-23, subtraction doesn’t seem like a piece of cake as she verbalizes her confusion, getting different answers using different methods. After watching Gretchen pry for a final solution and coming up uncertain, we can gain a much deeper understanding for how the concept of subtraction first develops and the discrepancies that can arise as a child searches for what is correct way and what is not.

    1959 Words  | 4 Pages

    A defining condition of being human is that we have to understand the meaning of our experience. For some, any uncritically assimilated explanation by an authority figure will suffice. But in contemporary societies we must learn to make our own interpretations rather than act on the purposes, beliefs, judgments, and feelings of others. Facilitating such understandings is the cardinal goal of adult education. Transformative learning develops autonomous thinking. (Mezirow 1997, p. 5)
