Week 1 learnings
We hope you have enjoyed this first week with us.
We learned more about each other and explored the main topic of this course: Learning through play.
This week, we have been thinking together about re-defining play and re-imagining learning to ensure children develop the necessary skills for navigation in an uncertain and complex world.
You have learned how to:
-
Recognise the holistic skills that children develop when they play and how those skills are critical to learning.
-
Identify the five characteristics of playful learning: joyful, actively engaging, meaningful, iterative, and socially interactive.
-
Understand the benefits of learning through play.
-
Facilitate for teaching learning through play activities
Together we have developed a better understanding for learning through play and are ready to go to the next step.
Learning all about LEGO Braille Bricks will consolidate a foundation for teaching students with visual impairment.
The playful activities, holistic skills and tips and tricks covered will allow creation of complete lesson plans using this amazing tool.
