Description

Formal, traditional teaching methods have for centuries been based on lectures and individual learning. These are characterised by heavily structured approaches to teaching and are based on a ‘transmissive’ model where knowledge is transferred from a lecturer to a student.

Non-formal methods, where teaching settings are less structured, and students set out to discover things for themselves, draw on student-based activities and tend to emphasise practical skills learning as well as greater student involvement in work design, peer supported learning and

assessment. This course will give you an insight of how can you combine formal and non-formal methods in education to make the school more efficient
