Week 9: Learning Styles, and Final version of My Project Report

This week one of my classmate has asked me one question. He comes from Bangladesh. His name is Bashir. His questions was "Group work is wonderful. Students can learn from each other. But I do not think that group study caters for all types of learners especially for the introverts! They may not participate in group work!"

I think you should give them sometimes to think about benefits of group work first. And then, you encourage and motivate them to think positively in other people's ideas. You would show them that you're taking care of and explain them very much. Many opinions are better then one. Their ideas only would never be correct all the time. Moreover, they could not make it perfectly. Finally, learning and sharing from each other is the only way that they could grow, improve and succeed in the near future. I think it should make sense to you.

Cambodia is one among four developing countries in Southeast Asia in which starvation and poverty threaten people in most part of the country, particularly. According to the triangle strategy implemented by Cambodian government, Cambodia depends solely on four fundamental factors, namely agriculture, industry, tourism employs and lastly education. One of which education plays a vital role in shaping and operating the other three more factors effectively and efficiently due to the matter of fact that it builds human resources enormously. To illustrate, agriculture, industry and tourism factor will not be able to develop exponentially as long as education field is weak. Therefore, the conclusion can be summed up in a way that only education plays a larger comprehension role in making one country grow beyond it limit.

Hi Davith,
I agree with you that the best source to involve the learners is to give them more possibilty to work and learn in groups,as they are not so inhibited to express their opinions and reciprocal teaching is taking place. It works perfectly well when they are motivated enough and and their age is above 18. I think that Bashir is right regarding introverts , they will tend to keep silent , the younger they are the less they will speak and participate, young learners and teenagers are not always consciencious and sensitive to their peers. That's why for me the best is pair work.

Davith, thank you very much for your early postings as I can't usually stay till late at night, waiting for others I have classes on early Monday morning.

Best,

Greetings Davith!
There are also students in my classroom who prefer to work individually. Usually I do not grudge but their work is quite often a bit poorer than it could be if they worked together with their fellow-students. You described the reasons for this very well.

And I strongly agree that education is crucial to make things work for your Country.
