AN EDUCATIONAL PARADIGM TO DEVELOP A CULTURE OF LEARNING
Positive Pedagogy empowers students to:-
know who they are,
find their place in space,
know how to learn and achieve,
make positive and productive decisions, developing
intrinsic motivation and self discipline.
Positive Pedagogy meets the specific, individual learning needs of students to create a true learning environment where teaching and learning is shared.
An 'Autodidact design' of learning is utilized empowering students to take control of their learning.
Processes of learning are as real life as possible so that learning opportunities and experiences involve:-
communicating,
co-operating,
collaborating,
constructing knowledge, skills and understandings together;
and celebrating achievements.
Creating true learning environments where communities of inquiry develop for students to:-
innovate, create, summarize, design, analyse, hypothesize, synthesize, evaluate, invent, question...
As a result students develop a passion for learning, creating a culture of learning.
