Using my strengths in my teaching

2.2.3 Reflect

My understanding of intelligence and in relation to learning, i summarize it as the ability to acquire and apply knowledge and skill. in other words its the mental ability involved in reasoning. 

I uniquely mix my intelligence through varieties of approaches and procedures while am teaching. 

First and fore most i demonstrating and become exemplary to the learners. Am an art and craft teacher when i give learners work to do, for example like drawing a flower. I first draw some abstracts (hands on) of the flower to show the learners that it is possible more especially to some who feel that  it is  difficult,or some even think that even teachers can not do it. By doing so, most of the learners understand more by seeing than just listening.

I do encourage learners to interact with each other, getting some ideas of how a fellow learner has done it. In Art and Craft different individual have different approaches, skills and talents. so it is good for some one to buy a leaf from some one but not coping directly. 

I normally identify the learners who need special attention and i help them more much as in technology it is advisable to treat all the learners the some despite of their unique needs and challenges. some learners have different back ground and interest so you can find a slow learners or any one with other problems.

I occasionally display the best pieces of work on boards a round the class. this creates competition between the learners thus end up getting learners improving. And these pieces are referred to while am teaching I normally get to know of my students' mix of intelligence better by evaluating every after a while. I ever ask learners questions on different covered topics. I give home works to learners so as they can do the work with out supervision.so when i find that the learners home work is good, that automatically means that my mix of intelligence are better. Last but not the least, i do give assessment or test them on the covered area of work. and after bringing the results, automatically some comes when they are not good. so this help some learners to pull up their socks.
