What do YOU want to achieve today
![Page 5: A guide to instructional practice in teaching & learning](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022051513/5457b752af7959795d8b50d4/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
And we are here today, because we are all committed to take action. That is our common point of departure. The magnitude of challenge before us is to translate this political will into a strong common approach:
We will rely critically on you to help to develop an agreement that is both acceptable to all parties and at the same time strong and ambitious. An agreement that is just and equitable. An agreement that is effective and operational.
To achieve that, we shall need all the technical skills and diplomatic entrepreneurship you command.
As decision makers, it is our obligation to provide the framework for change.
We can change, and we have to change.
I call on all of you to make your contribution. To be constructive, flexible and realistic. To be vigilant in your efforts to reach agreement and to show regard to the constraints of other negotiating partners.
You must do all this and still be ambitious, courageous and visionary.
Together we can accomplish what must be accomplished. Thank you very much.
- Opening Address by H.E. Lars Løkke Rasmussen, Prime Minister of Denmark, at United Nations Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen December 7, 2009

Part I
“THEORY”
![Page 9: A guide to instructional practice in teaching & learning](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022051513/5457b752af7959795d8b50d4/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Learning Theories
• Pedagogy: The term generally refers to strategies of instruction, or a style of instruction. Pedagogy is also sometimes referred to as the correct use of teaching strategies, including content, delivery, and assessment. Some pedagogical models refer to elements of engaging learners in meaningful tasks, providing rapid feedback, encouraging reflective practices and discussion & collaborations within a social learning construct.
![Page 10: A guide to instructional practice in teaching & learning](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022051513/5457b752af7959795d8b50d4/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Learning Theories
• Andragogy: the process of engaging adult learners within the structure of adult learning theory.
• Cognitive Learning Theory: attempts to explain human behaviour by understanding thought processes - learning that is concerned with acquisition of problem-solving abilities & information about the ‘environment.’
![Page 11: A guide to instructional practice in teaching & learning](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022051513/5457b752af7959795d8b50d4/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
• Behavioural Learning Theory: states that individuals learn by duplicating behaviours they observe in others and that rewards are essential to ensuring the repetition of desirable behaviour.
• Experiential Learning: a cyclical process involving (1) concrete experience, (2) observation and experience, (3) forming abstract concepts &, (4) testing in new situations.
![Page 12: A guide to instructional practice in teaching & learning](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022051513/5457b752af7959795d8b50d4/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Learning Theories
• Adult Learning Theory: central to this thinking is the process of making meaning from the processes of: responsible, experiential, co-operative & reflective practices of learning.
• Constructivist Theory: the learner actively constructs knowledge, through achieving understanding. Learning depends on what we already know, or what we can already do.
![Page 13: A guide to instructional practice in teaching & learning](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022051513/5457b752af7959795d8b50d4/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
- ACTIVITY -
• In groups, ‘brainstorm’ current instructional practices using the following categories:- learning theories- delivery methods- resource design- assessment strategies- learner-centred focus- technology- other
![Page 14: A guide to instructional practice in teaching & learning](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022051513/5457b752af7959795d8b50d4/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Learner-centred focus
Perceptions inform & mould behaviours in learning, not information!
These perceptions are heavily influenced by the ‘environment’, peers and individual belief systems.
Learners need to be given the opportunity to share their perceptions & reach their own conclusions.
Changing the behaviour of the learner to improve the ‘bottom line.’
What might that bottom line be?
![Page 15: A guide to instructional practice in teaching & learning](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022051513/5457b752af7959795d8b50d4/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
…the bottom line?
• Qualification(s)• Financial reward • Employment• Better employment• Promotion in employment• Life-long learning• Personal satisfaction• Family expectations• Teacher/organization satisfaction• Social/community expectation
![Page 16: A guide to instructional practice in teaching & learning](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022051513/5457b752af7959795d8b50d4/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
…how should we approach this bottom line philosophy?
• Intrinsic motivators- providing degrees of autonomy & decision
making capability- setting goals related to real life expectations- providing constant & relevant feedback- providing variety- engendering mutual support & respect- making learning meaningful & socially useful- ‘painting a picture’ of a desirable future as a
direct consequence of the learning
![Page 17: A guide to instructional practice in teaching & learning](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022051513/5457b752af7959795d8b50d4/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Learner-centred focus
• Sustainable motivators Openness - all work is open to the inspection of everyone
Sharing human ideals – nurturing, regard for the environment, autonomy, ownership, solving problems, social inclusion
Mutually shared fields – teamwork, perceptions of & within the same world
Trust – developed from the preceding motivators

Instructional design principles
Mapping learning theory to pedagogical approaches.
1. behavioural2. cognitive3. situative
![Page 27: A guide to instructional practice in teaching & learning](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022051513/5457b752af7959795d8b50d4/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Instructional theory
1. “Behavioural”▪ learning framed by what the learner knows or doesn’t know2. “Cognitive” ▪ learning framed by the learners capacity to engage in learning3. “Situative” ▪ learning framed by ‘communities’ as open systems influencing learning through social action & change
![Page 28: A guide to instructional practice in teaching & learning](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022051513/5457b752af7959795d8b50d4/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Learning as an activity [behavioural theory]
• Knowledge + sequences of activity + approximation of performance + feedback = learning
• Learning occurs in small & logically-ordered steps
• Learning must be personally meaningful
• Behaviourist theory of learning emphasises active learning-by-doing with immediate feedback
![Page 29: A guide to instructional practice in teaching & learning](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022051513/5457b752af7959795d8b50d4/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Learning as achieving understanding[cognitive theory]
• Information processing, problem solving & reasoning & meta-cognition & critical reflection
• Knowledge gain through prior experience & new understanding & practice
• Increased competence & confidence results in more predictable & automatic learning patterns
• Higher order cognitive processes lead to success in more complex tasks
• The learners’ search for meaning (in and of the task) occurs through activity (i.e. the constructivist theory of learning)
![Page 30: A guide to instructional practice in teaching & learning](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022051513/5457b752af7959795d8b50d4/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Learning as social practice[situative theory]
• Social and cultural environment influences learning outcomes
• Knowledge distributed socially• Learning outcomes predicated on group
(‘community’) participation• Sense of identity, shaped by social forces• Learning activity authentic to the social
(work/real-life) context• The learner’s ‘identity’ derives from
becoming part of a ‘community of practice’
![Page 31: A guide to instructional practice in teaching & learning](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022051513/5457b752af7959795d8b50d4/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)

Part II
“PRACTICE”
![Page 33: A guide to instructional practice in teaching & learning](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022051513/5457b752af7959795d8b50d4/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Group activity
▪Aim: to identify six (6) desirable future stages of instructional practice necessary for worthwhile change to occur in your teaching role? (refer to ‘brainstorm’ list)
▪Achieve consistent agreement on common stages?
▪Negotiate the differences
▪Agree on a final six stages
![Page 34: A guide to instructional practice in teaching & learning](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022051513/5457b752af7959795d8b50d4/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Instructional Practice
Instructional practice approach is focused on •learning and competence development •reflective action•knowledge construction•contextualized, interpretative & performance assessment•assessment based on acquisition of higher- order thinker processes & competencies
