Namaqua Education District (Phase 2): First Visit To Project, 2016

Monday, February 15, 2016 - 08:00 to Friday, February 19, 2016 - 16:30

Set-Up of Project

Teachers from 4 circuits in the Namaqua District will attend a 2-day orientation workshop in Springbok, Northern Cape. District and Provincial officials will also attend the orientation workshop.

After the workshop the teachers willl start to implement the first two conceptual domains of colour and shape in their classrooms.

The District and Provincial officials will accompany the Project Leader on his mentoring visits to these project teachers to help them with the implementation. 

While the District officials will be expected to provide support to the project teachers, the Provincial officials will return to their districts to implement the programme with a small group of learners.

See documents below for a breakdown of the schools, teachers, and learners.

Before the course, I never focused on the main concepts as I never really thought them essential to "real life" as a speech-language pathologist. I now have a very different perspective on why these aspects are important and how they move cognition forward.

ZOOM TRAINING 2 FEEDBACK

‘I thoroughly enjoyed this workshop as I was given the opportunity to work with learners … while being guided. The trainer demonstrations with the learners were an excellent idea. This workshop has been a success as I can now see what our learners lack. It made a lot of sense.’ (Metro South, 2009)

Teacher Training

The BCP provides "tools" for higher-level learning.

I had an idea what the course would be like, but it was much more than what I had expected.

Metro Central Training: WCED (February, 2015)

I found this course extremely helpful. One of the best I have attended. The programme makes so much sense and has really made me think!

Public Open Training, Cape Town (2014)

I now have a broader knowledge of how to teach various concepts and reach all intelligences and learning styles.
