Discussion (20 mins)
Discuss as a class the reviews which you have produced.
Focus on one with a very low mark, and one with a very high mark.
Try to establish what makes a course good or bad.
Discuss what makes a good course well suited to adults.
![Page 16: 1 Train the statistical trainer Module 6. 2 Who is this course for? This module is concerned with developing the training skills of District Office staff](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062219/5515f9ed550346a2308b48c6/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

Discussion – how did it go?
What we wanted you to establish is:
By being yourselves – adults with opinions, who go on courses and learn – you already have a lot of knowledge about the topics in this course.
…. Did we succeed?
![Page 17: 1 Train the statistical trainer Module 6. 2 Who is this course for? This module is concerned with developing the training skills of District Office staff](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062219/5515f9ed550346a2308b48c6/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

Teaching styles
The following two slides outline the two central teaching styles.
Read through them and decide which you prefer and which you feel applies best to adults.
![Page 18: 1 Train the statistical trainer Module 6. 2 Who is this course for? This module is concerned with developing the training skills of District Office staff](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062219/5515f9ed550346a2308b48c6/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

Pedagogy
Definition: An educational approach characterised by teacher-centred instruction.
Teacher is viewed as an authority figure who imparts knowledge and skills to the students.
Students are not generally involved in decisions or actions in regard to learning.
Method generally follows a lecture structure with students recording the information and compounding it through individual exercises.
![Page 19: 1 Train the statistical trainer Module 6. 2 Who is this course for? This module is concerned with developing the training skills of District Office staff](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062219/5515f9ed550346a2308b48c6/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
19
Andragogy
Definition: A learner-centred educational approach.
The participant's needs and wants are central to the process of teaching.
Learning is self-directed: participants are responsible for and involved in structuring their learning.
A humanist philosophy underlies this teaching style, it considers personal development as the key focus of education.
![Page 20: 1 Train the statistical trainer Module 6. 2 Who is this course for? This module is concerned with developing the training skills of District Office staff](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062219/5515f9ed550346a2308b48c6/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
20
Which did you chose?
Andragogy is consider the most effective way of teaching adults.
It takes into account their already well developed sense of self and prior knowledge.
It also encourages practical activities and participation.
…let’s look closer at adult learning theory.
![Page 21: 1 Train the statistical trainer Module 6. 2 Who is this course for? This module is concerned with developing the training skills of District Office staff](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062219/5515f9ed550346a2308b48c6/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

Adult Learning Theory, Speck (1996)
Adults will commit to learning when the goals and objectives are considered realistic and important to them.
Adults want to be the origin of their own learning and will resist learning activities they believe are an attack on their competence.
![Page 22: 1 Train the statistical trainer Module 6. 2 Who is this course for? This module is concerned with developing the training skills of District Office staff](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062219/5515f9ed550346a2308b48c6/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
22
Adult learners come to learning with a wide range of previous experiences, knowledge, self-direction, interests, and competencies.
Adult learning has ego involved. Professional development must be structured in such a way as to get support from peers and to reduce the fear of judgment during learning.
Adult Learning Theory, Speck (1996)
![Page 23: 1 Train the statistical trainer Module 6. 2 Who is this course for? This module is concerned with developing the training skills of District Office staff](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062219/5515f9ed550346a2308b48c6/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
23
Adult learners need to see that the professional development learning and their day-to-day activities are related and relevant
Adult learners need direct, concrete experiences in which they apply the learning in real work
Adult Learning Theory, Speck (1996)
![Page 24: 1 Train the statistical trainer Module 6. 2 Who is this course for? This module is concerned with developing the training skills of District Office staff](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062219/5515f9ed550346a2308b48c6/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
24
Adults need to participate in small-team activities during the learning to move them beyond understanding to application, analysis, synthesis, and evaluation. Small-team activities provide an opportunity to share, reflect, and generalize their learning experiences.
Adults need to receive feedback on how they are doing and the results of their efforts.
Adult Learning Theory, Speck (1996)
![Page 25: 1 Train the statistical trainer Module 6. 2 Who is this course for? This module is concerned with developing the training skills of District Office staff](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062219/5515f9ed550346a2308b48c6/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
25
Putting principles into practice!
Readiness Adults must themselves be ready and willing to
learn before teaching can increase knowledge.
Implications for Trainer. Must show that: the course is for participants’ benefit the training can help solve or avoid a problem the new knowledge will provide new
opportunities as well as personal or professional growth.
![Page 26: 1 Train the statistical trainer Module 6. 2 Who is this course for? This module is concerned with developing the training skills of District Office staff](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062219/5515f9ed550346a2308b48c6/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
26
Putting principles into practice!
Experience Adults already have a wealth of knowledge
and experience.
Implications for Trainer should take account of this; otherwise risk
losing participants’ interest and insulting them. exploit this unique resource provide opportunities for participants to
contribute and share their experiences
Allows trainer to manage course appropriately.
![Page 27: 1 Train the statistical trainer Module 6. 2 Who is this course for? This module is concerned with developing the training skills of District Office staff](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062219/5515f9ed550346a2308b48c6/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
27
Putting principles into practice! Autonomy
Adults have the power to make their own choices.
Implications for Trainer. Must: allow as much autonomy as possible; otherwise
participants may feel undermined and alienated. provide lots of opportunities for participation in the
training session. e.g. games, simulations, discussions etc. where
participants can figure things out for themselves, reflect on materials and potential uses, etc.
![Page 28: 1 Train the statistical trainer Module 6. 2 Who is this course for? This module is concerned with developing the training skills of District Office staff](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062219/5515f9ed550346a2308b48c6/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
28
Putting principles into practice! Action
Adults need to see how new skills will be put into action in their work. If not, they will lose interest; learning will decrease.
Implications for Trainer. Must: clearly explain how and when skills learned can
be applied to the participants’ own work. incorporate an environment close to
participants’ work setting into practical exercises.
![Page 29: 1 Train the statistical trainer Module 6. 2 Who is this course for? This module is concerned with developing the training skills of District Office staff](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062219/5515f9ed550346a2308b48c6/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)

Review
Experience-based Active Recognizing them as
experts Independent Real-life centred
Task-centred Problem-centred Solution-driven Skill-seeking Self-directing Internally and
externally motivated
Adults respond best to learning that is:
![Page 30: 1 Train the statistical trainer Module 6. 2 Who is this course for? This module is concerned with developing the training skills of District Office staff](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062219/5515f9ed550346a2308b48c6/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
30
Practical
Get into groups of 3 or 4
(they needn’t be the same as before) Complete the practical exercise outlined
in the Practical sheet. Choose a course that does not meet
adult learning needs and propose exercises which you think would make it more appropriate.
![Page 31: 1 Train the statistical trainer Module 6. 2 Who is this course for? This module is concerned with developing the training skills of District Office staff](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062219/5515f9ed550346a2308b48c6/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
31
Learning styles
Activists: involve themselves fully and without bias in new experiences. The “I’ll try anything once” type.
Reflectors: stand back and ponder experiences and observe them from many different perspectives.
Theorists: adapt and integrate observations into complex but locally sound theories.
Pragmatists: search out new ideas and take the first opportunity to experiment with them.
![Page 32: 1 Train the statistical trainer Module 6. 2 Who is this course for? This module is concerned with developing the training skills of District Office staff](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062219/5515f9ed550346a2308b48c6/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
32
Learning styles (more)
Another way of describing learning styles is: Visual Auditory Tactile
Practical (35 mins) Complete the learning style questionnaire. Identify whether you are an activist, etc. Discuss how the variety, found in every
training group, should be addressed.
![Page 33: 1 Train the statistical trainer Module 6. 2 Who is this course for? This module is concerned with developing the training skills of District Office staff](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062219/5515f9ed550346a2308b48c6/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
33
Learning style
It is important to recognise that people learn differently.
And that all training groups will include a variety of learning styles.
To provide effective training one must stimulate all of the senses and thus access all learners.
![Page 34: 1 Train the statistical trainer Module 6. 2 Who is this course for? This module is concerned with developing the training skills of District Office staff](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062219/5515f9ed550346a2308b48c6/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
34
Motivation
Understanding participants’ motivation is important. what they expect from the course allow you to tailor it to meet those
expectations. help you to make the participants “ready”
to learn by enabling you to show them that the course can correlate with their needs.
![Page 35: 1 Train the statistical trainer Module 6. 2 Who is this course for? This module is concerned with developing the training skills of District Office staff](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062219/5515f9ed550346a2308b48c6/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
35
Motivation of the adult learner
Includes: Social relationships: make new friends, meet a
need for associations and friendships. External expectations: comply with instructions
from someone else; fulfill expectations or recommendations of someone with formal authority.
Social welfare: improve ability to serve mankind, prepare for service to the community, and improve ability to participate in community work.

36
Motivation of the adult learner (cont.)
Personal advancement: achieve higher status in a job, secure professional advancement, and stay abreast of competitors
Escape/Stimulation: relieve boredom, provide a break in the routine of home or work, and provide contrast to other exacting details of life
Cognitive interest: learn for the sake of learning, seek knowledge for its own sake, and to satisfy an inquiring mind

Barriers for adults to learning
Include: Lack of time, money, confidence or interest
Lack of information about opportunities to
learn Scheduling problems Red tape Transportation Domestic problems
Add to the list

38
Practical (20 mins)
Discuss each of the motivating factors in turn. Are any more constructive than others? Could any of them hold participants back? Which provide the strongest motivation to learn? Which factors do you feel apply to you? Which do you feel appear most often in training
groups? Finally rank the six factors in order of:
PrevalenceMotivating power
