ReadingWise Facilitator Course

Problem Addressed

Learning in most parts of the world uses a centuries-old model of a teacher standing at the front of the class lecturing students verbally in an often vain attempt to get them to retain information.

Solution

ReadingWise courses are delivered by Facilitators, who get students to teach themselves from the multimedia material given. Students work in pairs and groups of 4 to encourage collaboration and working with others. The Facilitators main function is to make sure that students understand their material. The course enables students to apply what they have learnt as well as absorb information rapidly.
