| Methodologies Of The Course | The course employs a variety of methodologies designed to provide a comprehensive learning experience for participants. Interactive lectures serve as a foundation, delivering theoretical knowledge and research findings related to mindfulness, emotional intelligence, working alliances in classrooms, and the Triple P – Positive Parenting Program. These sessions foster an understanding of key concepts while also allowing for critical analysis and discussion. Hands-on workshops form an integral part of the course, offering participants practical opportunities to apply learned concepts in real-world teaching scenarios. Through activities such as mindfulness exercises, role-playing simulations, and collaborative problem-solving tasks, participants gain firsthand experience in implementing cooperative teaching approaches. Case studies are utilized to deepen understanding and facilitate discussions on effective teaching strategies and problem-solving approaches. By analyzing real-life classroom scenarios, participants can explore diverse perspectives, identify best practices, and develop strategies for addressing common challenges encountered in educational settings. Group discussions provide a platform for knowledge sharing, critical thinking, and collaboration among participants. These facilitated discussions encourage participants to explore their own experiences, share insights, and learn from one another, contributing to a supportive and dynamic learning environment. Reflective practices are integrated throughout the course to promote self-awareness and continuous improvement. Guided reflection activities encourage participants to reflect on their teaching practices, personal experiences, and areas for growth, fostering a deeper understanding of their strengths and areas for development.
