Updates - Blended Learning; what we learnt? how can we learn better?

[Meble Birengo]

Dear All,

 

Today, six members from Kenya Competence Trust, met together for a whole day's process to look at the six modules for the blended learning.  The team took turns in facilitating the different modules, but what added value was the fact that the team had different expriences in line with the six modules.

 

As part of the process, the team reflected on what they were expecting to achieve at the end of the day - a few reflections were...

1. I expect to learn and to share what we have been doing in our areas of work in the previous months. - David from OAIC
2. I am expecting to catch up from last year, and eager to understand the whole concept of blended learnint - Rose OAIC
3. I am here excited to go through the whole process - to skim through and see how we related to the packaged programme of blended learning in anticipation to working together around it - Alice
4. I am here to share experiences from the FBO process in Mombasa, share key things that unfolded but also learn - John from Kithituni
5. My expectation is to see everyone on the same page - that we are moving together interms of understaning and intergrating tools for our own responses - Meble
6. I expect to see us going through together - I expect us to learn together as a team - April

The team, spent time going through the models, pausing for reflections, listening, to the CD introductions and video clips from various countries - reading through stories, and sharing own expriences around each module. 

 

At the end of the process, - the team reflected on the day - reflections were....

 

I feel stimulated, about the day - its been healthy to move on and use existing strengths for shairng hte process - April

its been time-well spent, worthwile, I feel we are confident, but I havent arrived yet - Alice

whoever arranged this day, has passion and a sense for responsibility, we really appreciate the offered learning, its been rich for me - David

Thank you for the opportunity, I have learnt alot and have seen how the AAR is facilitated - Rose

Its been a rich day to reflect and revisit things we already know - its been light but very focused - Meble

 

Please see all photos -  on our main page for all the reflections, additions and contents for each of the modules the team reflected on. 

 

Its our hope to have another blended learning, twice again this year with a wider group.

 

Regards
