My Pedagogy I believe that we all use a variety of teaching styles matching our style to each situation. Overall I identify with a Humanist approach I would always start planning a lesson by setting a learning environment that is safe not only physically but emotionally and with a sense of belonging
Mark the Humanist

I always try to set an example
I always try to:
Portray the image of a Sergeant in the RAF
Make the teaching as realistic as possible
Give real examples from my experience
Point out where the training example differs from reality
Community of practiceEtienne Wenger
www.ewenger.com
A community of practice is that a group of people with some kind of common link who interact regularly. This could be a group of professionals who meet to discuss developments in their field or a group of enthusiasts who meet to share feelings and support each other. However in order to be a community of practice there must be a shared goal or intention to provide the “practice” and make those taking part practitioners
Mark P page on Cosford wikispace
My resource proposal
My resource proposal A facebook forum for reflective practitioners in the
RAF NVQ Community of Practice
My resource proposal A centre of excellence for PDF on Facebook
At present no other camps can amend the Cosford web page
In order to create a forum of understanding and cooperation I will go outside of DII
This will encourage reflection at home and in personal time
It can be accesses during work time by everyone
We will use it to feed into the topics we choose for seminars
At present we have no system like this
