Daniel MUSIBA talks about the role of the teacher in the.

Hi Daniel, tell me what kind of teacher methods you will use in the course and why. How will you use ICT?
The course will be based on case studies, this mean giving lively examples or referring to anything that can make some one understand what is being taught and what has been taught- As a teacher I will apply case studies basing on the existing experiences in ICT, I will also allow all the students who feel like giving several examples on what is being studied to give examples so that those who will be having few ideas on what being taught get enough case studies to ease their learning. Similarly as a teacher of ICT will have to make sure that theory is turned into practical’s, how?. I will be able to organise ICT demonstrations whereby every student will be given an equal opportunity to demonstrate what he or she has learnt in class, in the process weaknesses will be identified and corrected. Students will also be sent for field work as a supplementary to case studies and getting enough experience, tests will be done and exams done at the end of the each semester, all to ensure that students can what they are supposed to get.

How will the students cooperate?
Another important thing to note is students learning from each other, as a teacher am a ware that in a class people have different experiences gained in ICT, we also have quick and slow leaners, there I pause a question for my self, how am I going to help the slow learners to cope up?. To begin with there is going to be a class assessment to identify those with some skills that is to say experience and those with little ideas. As a teacher after assessment I will divide students into small groups, anybody who has some experience in ICT will be put together with somebody with little knowledge so that during group discussions they are able help the slow learners. Active class presentations on the course work given will be considered so that Multiple Intelligences are identified and enough time given to students to do their presentations as time is one of the most important factor considered during teaching.

In what way you students will appreciate you as a teacher?
Critical reflection on what is in place to make the class more aware of what I will be teaching, I will also ask student whether they will be understanding what I will be teaching or not, an opportunity to repeat what is being taught will be available from the teacher at a no cost, the teacher will also be responsible for motivation of students in class through talking about successful people and telling every student that he or she can make it to success, normally as a teacher I can realise when the class is boring, there I have to crack a joke with the students so that they can have a simple refreshment of the mind, more still students will have breaks. A conducive environment will be created by the teacher whereby classes will be conducted in a cool environment without much noise for interference so that adults can be helped learn well.
