well in the future. This module gave me the real world experience and I was
able to finish my projects on time. I participated in each activity of my
program.
Q2. What are some of your favourite ways for teaching students?
Ans. So far, I have noticed and felt personally that providing feedback is one of
the favourite way in learning because under this we got the opportunity to
improve our mistakes by having written and verbal feedback. Under this
module, we got both positive and constitutive feedback from our mentors that
helped me in keeping myself motivated. It was done in the form of discussion
and class surveys and we were also provided the option to ask our queries
anytime.

improve communication skills ?

always been there for us and with the help of experienced teachers we

learnt in this module such as by being an active listener through paying
attention when someone says something and sharing our own thoughts and
ides.

Ans. SWOT Analysis is defined as a framework that can be used to make
analysis of the learner in order to improve the performance by analysing the
various factors that is strengths, weakness, opportunities and threats. Under
this module, I did my personal analysis that assisted me in setting my personal
desired goals. Being a learner, I needed a direction in attaining the personal
objectives of the work and personal life. Due to this analysis, I got some
objectives that allows me to gather the efforts which will serve as a guide to
reach success in the future. Once the goals are decided, learners will be clear
about the tasks to achieve and also the smallest tasks done on daily basis, will
add up to the big results.
Whereas Personalised learning is a term which is used for present a
learning approach which focuses on the strength, skills, interest and needs of
the learners. With the help of this module, I was able to enhance my
personalised learning because I got the chance to interact with learners and
teachers.
