Learning and Teaching: A Guide for Trainers and FET College Lecturers

Learning and Teaching: A Guide for Trainers and FET College Lecturers is intended for all Further Education and Training College lecturers in the Limpopo province. Lecturers that have been exposed to some form of outcomes-based education (OBE) training previously will be able to use this guide to refresh their memory on the principles of outcomes-based methodologies and use some of the useful tools that the guide contains. While lecturers that have not previously been exposed to OBE training will have the opportunity to participate in training facilitated by trainers (FET lecturers) who have been specially selected and trained to use this guide.

The guide supports FET College lecturers to make the shift from content-based, lecturer-centred, transmission teaching and learning to an outcomes-based, learner-centred, activity-based approach. It is intended to assist the FET lecturer to understand why and how a particular strategy, method, or idea is useful, and not to just be a “how to” manual of tips. Yet it is at the same time intended to be relevant at all times to the context and practice of the FET lecturer, offering realistic exemplars and demonstrating approaches and methods for implementation.
