1-1 Activity 2

The reading for this activity has provided a stark reminder of how we, as teachers need to be constantly aware of how we are impacting our students' acquisition of knowledge and skills by the way we teach them.  It has helped to remind me that learners differ in the cognition process and hence they have to be taught differently.  However, it is necessary and important that all students become active learners and not passive receivers of information 'doled' out by the teacher. Learning therefore, must not only be meaningful, but it must be fun while at the same time stimulating and challenging the mental processes of the learner.  I think that this should be the goal of all teaching.
