HOW CAN MINDSET HELP YOU?
For many teachers and also some of our Khanya facilitators Mindset is somewhat of anomaly. I would like to think that we can change this perception. TV is a great medium because it lets you and the learners step into the world out there. I will publish nine short session showing why Mindset can help our learners in three successive postings. I trust this will be of benefit. Here is the first three:
1. Bring a topic to life: Think about the learning power of a documentary on animals, showing a play instead of just reading it, watching a scientific discovery take place or visiting a historical site. Mindset will do this for you and your class.
2. Bring the world into your classroom: Seeing is believing, and we can’t always show our learners what they are learning about. With TV, they can travel to another country, see the inside of a space shuttle or watch an experiment conducted in a fully equipped laboratory.
3. Make a topic relevant to real life:
Learners often ask us: “But why is this important?” And sometimes teachers just don’t have the answer. Mindset spends time researching the application of knowledge and shows learners the relevance of the curriculum beyond the classroom.
