learning (Neo, 2005). Explicitly, students learn through learning activities designed by their lecturers and they construct knowledge via experiences gained in the activities. This is in line with Kolb et al. (1984) who argued that “learning is the process whereby knowledge is created through the transformation of experience”. Thus, students are encouraged to build on their prior knowledge and experiences in order to attain deeper understanding of the events and to capitalise on peers’ shared…

hand to engage students in authentic learning experiences, where they are able to generate their own learning through real experiences (Nixon & Gould, 2005). Opportunities to learn should consist of experiences that facilitate the construction of knowledge (Jonassen, 1999). The hands-on and minds-on approach to learning develops a deeper understanding of the topic being taught (Staats, 2011). These styles of teaching are essential when working with young children and areas of the humanities. The…

The current instructional practices follow the direct instruction components. Visual aids, rewards, corrective feedback are present throughout each lesson. The EBP also follows along with the school wide implantation of the Nurtured Heart Approach.

three affective teaching methods (role-playing, demonstration, and dialogue) in adult education.

Due to the current high-stakes testing environment, teaching in classrooms today is monopolized by scripted curriculum materials, programmed lesson plans, and more often than not, explicit direct instruction; even though we know these methods don’t work. The project based learning approach however, has shown to be a method that allows teachers the opportunity to be creative with their instruction and provide students with learning…

Fate, the idea that one has a predetermined future, plays a major role in this reality. Gods have a tremendous influence over humans and play with their lives like a game of chess. In fact, without the gods, men are believed to lack knowledge and the power of decision. The testimony of a god makes something true, and consequently, piety is momentously important; what the gods say and do are thought to be correct and able to be used as models for moral action.
