week 2

there was set joury where we met on time at 10 am in the train station, 11-4 with lars, sophi and kamal. We had a citysighting through which we had an over view about main place like alexnder1 among others.
During the week we had a comprehensive overview about learning theories and cultural learning. The set of theories has helped us understand better our teaching situation and the sort of patterns we more or less belong to. This included for instance behaviourism, cognitivisim and sociconstructivism.



week one reflection

evry one in the world should believe as well as in finland that education is a key factor for human and social succss.
Students are the first level customrs 'labour market' so this program from the first week has enabled us at the beginning to undewrtsand the pedagogy in our vocational teaching such as strategies of cognition and epestimology, technology and social affectivness.
Also we found out that this program would develop our personalities and collebrativve learning by dividing us into many groups as teams for instance to implement and practce learning and training.

This obseervation was about  startegy and modeling in buisness administeration. As a tutors we extchanged information about each other the tutor and me. First the tutor invisted the students to interduce themeselves and they did. The lesson  began by demonestrating the content through slides or PP and threw a few questions so to activate their background knowledge. various interesting social appliactions were used like you tub though a number of studnets were passive and busy with their mobiles which reflwected that they were much interested. The tuto role was in this situation a but a bit passive where she could have been more enaged by motivating them to be counciopus.
The sudents were group  per strategy models as case studiy so they prsent what they have been given in canvans fill-in report aftere they were given handouts.
It was quiet clear that the students oin general intentioal to the tutor when the lesson discussed. The time spent on the lesson was good so had time management. It is obvious that the group work was good so they were active and coolabertaive so helped the studnets were all in general enaged in the learning process.
