Web Conference

I had my Skype call with Katrina, my learning partner in this PIDP course. I had a wonderful time getting to know Katrina, we live so far away, but our lives within our professional world are very similar. We have both been in the ECE profession for approx, the time, and have grown within our field to become who we are today.

We discovered though our conversation that we have a very similar philosophy in regards to our way we approach our roles as educators of children and how this will carry though to our teachings with adult learners.

For our Trend and Role (BLOG)  assignment, Katrina and I had decided to research and discuss the learners-centred education. Durning our research, and though our discussion, even though we were trying to focus on the adult learner, it became very apparent to both of us that we have used the same techniques with the children we teach on a daily basis. Though our conservations, the research that we did and shared, I understood more as to the benefits of learner- centred education, as I knew it was effective for children, but it reinforced to me as the why,  it will also be an effective way for adults to learn as well.

I have enjoyed my time getting to know Katrina, and I know that we will be in touch as we venture though this PIDP  adventure alone... but always a person only a click away to reflect with.
