Wensday and Thursday 20+31

The trip to an academy where we had a very useful workshop on mobile learning was very sucessful. In that workshop we were presented with realistic and very useful mobile learning training techniques including scanning, dropbox and many other techniques where the whole participants were seemingly impressed. This though has relatively some similiarities with the social media applications introduced by Irmeli.

Thursday 31 workshop by katri and marjya was maybe one of the most important workshops in the program where implementation of theories was performed practically. The main four theories we had before were presented again but we were asked to apply the elements of the theories in a teaching situation and how it can be performed. i think it was fantastic and great workshop so thanks marjya and katri.

Monday+Tuesday, week 9. Assessment

The assessment set of workshops taken over Monday and Tuesday 28-29-06 is really hopeless and almost zero gain. This should nt have happened and rather recapped. The assessment unite should reflect more through preperation and presentation of up-to date knowledge but the fact was that nothing happened. The tutor seems not to have solid background in assessment or might not have prepared for this AT ALL!!. The bottom line is no gain!.

Yoverscola (Y) Jounery Week ( the nice week)

This  week, the 8th, we had a jounery to Y which was really very exciting. First we have been to cottages and some sport activities like sauna where we spent the first day, before we had a lecture about 'Sport Intellegent and Marketing' but was completely of my interest (the lecture). The second day, we headed to Y and hosteled in a decent hotel, and followed by a lecture about how buisness is done for 2 hourse. Then we had the most exciting experience, which is the historical restaurant!!! it was very nice and very delicious, Thanks Lars and Anna for the dinnar and the right choice.
The third day we went to buisness school where i was surprised that it prepars enterprenure people, in other words it is more practical BA in buisness. This is said to be completely practical degree since the first day! maybe i need to read more about this especially that it is 'buisness school' so clear projects and buisness coming out . 

Guiding and Counciling, Assessment

This class was interesting , and exciting for the new information such as the role of the tutor atyand trainee. There are three main styles for guiding such as catalytic and conforntential. This has helped me understand more clearly the vital role of the tutor for guiding and counciling as a part of his training responsibility. There is a lot to say but surely lots of information has been conceptualized.

Assessemnt class was interesting and for me was like good refreshment of my assessment literature but in this class it was well orgaized and presented thought seemingly more pratical excercises could have been more useful for instance making assessment trials and being exposed to common mistakes in assessment and how to overcome them.

Week 6, monday and tuesday

Monday week 6 inlcudes a number of issues such as debriefing shadwaing. On manoday we had Maria elicited data about the trainees' reflection and experience about shadowing and what has surprised  thuentsem most often. Among which were students engagment of active participation in classroom and the various methods used by the tutors. I myself learned a number of things mostly giving more time for the students to raise their voice but equally more importantly there is a need to push the students motivation so to actively get engaged in actual participation.

Tuedsday the next day, we had a visit to SLK where a tutor explained the structure of the school and how the CO=UP or studnets training after finishing the institute academic period. There was a discussion about the mechanisim of the cooperative training . I think there is some similarity between the training period in KSA and Finland though there seems to a difference in implementaion where here in hagga college follow up is emphesised. so maybe we need to take this into consideration.
