Teaching Edge

Teaching and Learning is reflection of our engagement with learners to enable their understanding and application of knowledge, concepts and processes. It includes design, content selection, delivery, assessment and reflection. To teach is to engage students in learning; thus, teaching consists of getting students involved in the active construction of knowledge. A teacher requires not only knowledge of subject matter, but knowledge of how students learn and how to transform them into active learners. Good teaching, then, requires a commitment to systematic understanding of learning.The aim of trainings is not only to transmit information, but also to transform students from passive recipients of other people's knowledge into active constructors of their own and others' knowledge. The trainings cannot transform professionals without active participation. Our trainings are fundamentally about creating the pedagogical, social, and ethical conditions under which educators agree to take charge of their own learning, individually and collectively.WE defined learning as the activity or process of gaining knowledge or skill by studying, practicing, being taught, or experiencing something significant which is useful for life. Learning is about what students do, not about what we as teachers do.
