EED2601ASSIGNMENT NUMBER 03
Due 26 JULY 2024
, 1.1 Describe what, as a teacher you do to promote the following:
a. Problem Solving
I promote problem solving by creating an environment of learning wherein learners
actively participate in identifying real-world environmental problems, analyzing them,
and trying to solve them. Following are some means towards this end:
• Designing Real-World Problems: Provide learners with authentic
environmental problems which have practical solutions—for instance, waste
management or conservation efforts.
• Group problem-solving: Allow learners to solve problems in groups.
Consequently, learners will be in a position to share ideas, argue on the
solution, and hence learn from other people's views.
• Process guidance: Offer structured guidance about techniques in problem
solving; this involves breaking down complex problems into manageable parts
and applying logical reasoning in tackling every component.
• Reflection: Engage learners in discussions after solving the problem. Reflect
on how they have approached the strategies, what worked, and what could be
improved.
• Give feedback: Provide constructive feedback that will allow learners to
understand their problem-solving process better and improve their approach
towards another similar problem in the future.
b. Critical Thinking
In facilitation, my role in promoting critical thinking is to get learners to analyze,
evaluate, and synthesize information critically. This might be attained by:
• Questioning: Develop a classroom culture of asking questions. Challenge the
learners to probe deeper on environmental issues with inquiries that have
evidence supporting the answers.
• Encourage Debate: Provide an opportunity for learners to debate and discuss
various points of view so that they can genuinely consider the different sides.
In this way, learners learn to appreciate the complexity of the environmental
issue and how to make a case for a point of view with some reason.
• Provide Analysis Tools and Skills: Give learners tools and frameworks
through which they can critically analyze environmental data and arguments.
Demonstrate to learners how to verify sources of credibility and further test
the validity of arguments.
• Independent Research: Give the learners time to conduct their own research
on any environmental issues; this will guarantee independence in opinion and
critical analysis of information.
