Methodologies

Good working knowledge of PowerPoint is essential for making the most from this course. Ideally, the participant would have attended an essentials course before embarking on this one.

A combination of lectures, explicit teaching, practical demonstrations and peer teaching is applied to this course.

Experiential learning approach is adopted where the learners will be required to consider the experience as a learning process joined with critical reflection which further qualifies for this theory to be applied for this course because, at each segment, the learners are introduced to some form of experience after which they are asked to reflect on these experiences before sharing and putting ideas into practice.
