Assignment 009, Research Report.
In this essay I am going to report my findings on inclusive learning, how to motivate and engage learners and establishing grounds rules. I am also going to talk about giving constructive feedback and what functional skills are.
Inclusive learning is focused teaching on the learner as each individual. It’s making the teaching inclusive for each learner to their requirements and their needs. Not everybody is the same, and each has their own way of learning. You have to identify and remove possible barriers that are going to restrict the learning process, and reduce their participation in the process. We all learn differently; influenced by a combination of post experiences of learning, study practices and our personal approaches to tasks and assignments. As people have different needs and speeds, you teach at the rate of the slowest learner (in a group situation). This means that yes others may be quicker, but they can then look at notes, displays, books etc. and the slowest can catch up. Don’t make people aware that you have a slow learner, repeat yourself, give hand-outs for them to browse at... people get embarrassed, ashamed and low if they think they are holding up the class.
If people have support workers, do not be tempted to lean towards them, your responsibility is towards your learner, not their help. Each person knows what they are capable of, even if they have a low self-esteem of themselves. Gentle persuasion, extra help, quiet teaching time with them may help them to achieve greater things. Everybody has particular ways of gathering, storing and processing information, and you will find each person preforms better in tasks that reflect to their preferred ways of learning and being taught. You need to try and have some knowledge of different learning styles and be able to introduce a variety of ways of teach to make your teaching inclusive. You can use learning style questionnaires to assess and gauge individual
