The Art and Science of Effective Learning and Teaching

An application of DBM (Developmental Behavioural Modelling to learning, teaching and education that goes way beyond current learning theory.
teach

“Learning is a defining human experience”. In other words one of the central experiences which differentiates humans is the way in which we learn.

With DBM® we can describe the all the processes used in both learning and teaching as well as creating new possibilities. Rather than applying a generic theory we can identify the uniqueness of each individual learner and teacher. We can identify how all the different learning types fit together including “learning to Learn” (Bateson) that greatly improves the ability for future learning. We can also identify in detail the various ancillary processes like motivation and core skills like concentration and memory and improve them.

This workshop is designed to explore the knowledge and skills necessary for effective Learning and Teaching and to assist participants to adapt them to their own style and to any theory they are committed to.

The workshop is most suitable for those seeking to greatly increase their understanding and effectiveness in Learning and Teaching and those wanting to help others to develop and use effective Learning and Teaching.
