I take this opportunity to welcome you all to Unit 4, hoping that you are through with Unit 3 activities. The theme for Unit 4 is Pedagogy and in Unit 4, we’ll be looking at ‘ICT Tools for Didactive Teaching and Learning’. I trust that things are getting easier and more interesting as we go along. I’d like to commend you all yet again for your commitment, hard work, zeal to succeed in the course and support for each other. Just a reminder for those who are yet to submit the Portfolio assignments for Units 2 and 3. We’d like to finalize with the marking to also avoid a backlog on our side. Later in the day, I will post the names of those who haven’t submitted Unit 3 assignments. I urge you all to take these assignments seriously since they will have a big impact on your final grade and certification. Always ensure you go through the ‘Evaluation Criteria for the Portfolio Assignments’ before you attempt the assignment. Ensure that you also internalize the Unit competencies and objectives.
The activities for this week are as follows:
- Chat (Is my teaching didactive?)- Wednesday 17th at 4-5pm
- Discussion Forum (The Right Methodology Forum)
- Portfolio Assignment
- Self-Evaluation Quiz
- Unit 4 Feedback
(Don’t forget to listen to the Facilitators’ Audio Summary)
Note that for tomorrow’s chat we require a moderator and a summarizer. Please let’s have others volunteering for these. Remember these are additional skills you are acquiring. Note also that for the discussion forum, you are not only expected to do your own posting, but also to respond to at least two (2) of your colleagues’ posts.
Remember if you have any issues concerning content, you can consult any of the facilitators. For the technical issues, please sms or WhatsApp Ivy on her personal line (0722966237).
Wishing you all a great time with Unit 4!
Judy, Grace & Anthony
