What do you think these might mean? How do these stances relate to interactive pedagogy? Clearly our programme is not just about information and consultation, but it is about deciding and acting together, and supporting teachers in their interests for professional development. | What do you think these might mean? How do these stances relate to interactive pedagogy? Clearly our programme is not just about information and consultation, but it is about deciding and acting together, and supporting teachers in their interests for professional development. And indeed, there is close alignment between the idea of "participation" and modern thinking in education, and with interactive pedagogy in particular. | ||
It is therefore important, that you take a participatory and interactive approach to the workshops. A great resources for running participatory meetings (and making participatory decisions) is the '''"[[OER4Schools/Facilitation/FGPDM|Facilitator's Guide to Participatory Decision-Making]]"'''. | |||
The "[[OER4Schools/Facilitation/FGPDM|Facilitator's Guide to Participatory Decision-Making]]" includes the following characteristics of participatory groups: | |||
* Everyone participates, not just the vocal few. | |||
* Participants give each other room to think. | |||
* Opposing viewpoints are allowed to co-exist, and participants can accurately represent each other's points of view, even when they do not agree with them. | |||
* Participants pay attention to each other, and the person speaking. | |||
