I think i connect most with designer of learning. As a teacher, we should be curious to pick up effective pedagogical approach that will engage the students at the level that they can learn better. Being mindful of the their learning needs as we design the lesson so that it will be fruitful for their learning.

Being a designer of learning is something I aspire to be. It requires me to be aware of my students profile, values they have, and their learning disposition. And it also requires me to know the current context and environment, so that I can create relevant lessons that will interest them. Last but not least, it needs me to keep up my pedagogical skills, especially in the area of AI, so that it connects my lessons to help students to immerse in the learning, diagnose their learning level, and guides them to the next level

I connect with Designer of Learning as it reminds me that students now have different learning needs and ways of learning, motivation, distractions etc.

I will need to explore digital literacy to improve in that area.

Facilitator of Learning

As a coursework teacher, I find that I constantly need to figure out ways/methods to facilitate students’ creative thinking processes & encouraging them to capture it on their e-visual journals.

I would like to focus on both designer & facilitator of learning as the nature of my subject relies heavily on the way I scaffold the learning points/activities where they not only pick up the mastery of technical skills but also inculcating the habit of meaning making in their works.

Currently, I find the role of Student Mentor closest to my current day-to-day experience as a teacher. Having served only three years, I am admittedly still building my pedagogical expertise. However, the one area I am most comfortable with is in listening to my students and even playing the role of guidance counsellor at times. Sometimes, I find myself playing the role of ‘older sister’, listening to them and offering advice when they seek them.

Extend/Challenge:

As I am approaching my fourth year, I would like to embrace my role of Designer of Learning am truthfully excited to use the information shared by MOE/CCPD and curating it for my students. There’s a certain level of trust and confidence that I have to exercise to say that I am willing and able to customise the learning materials for my students because I know them best!

Being a designer of learning, in the current education landscape filled with diverse profile of students, a lot more factors needs to be considered such as e-ped, certain pedagogies etc. It’s definitely different when I reminisce my times as a student where lessons tend to be more straightforward and at times, one dimensional.

Lifelong Learning resonates with me — no matter which stage of life we are at, we need to constantly learn from people around us, so that we are better equipped to support people who needs us.

Challenge: To be designer of learning so that I am ever ready for the ever-changing learning landscape and to craft out purposeful learning tasks for students and be a stronger anchor for them.

Designer of learning resonates most strongly with me. Due to the changing learning landscape, students are able to glean their learning from so many different platforms, even without a traditional teacher figure with them. As such, the role of a teacher has evolved to be a guide to help them navigate in the complex world to be future-ready individuals, as well as age of teenage angst and pubescent uncertainty. In addition, we need to also evolve to be able to cater to a myriad of learning experiences for the students to nurture them be more holistic individuals.

I would like to focus more on facilitator of learning for my PD, as I find it the most challenging, given my personality. Being a facilitator means that as a teacher, I have to acknowledge and accept that I do not have full and complete control of the learning experience in the classroom in order to accommodate to the different learning styles and paces. The students will grow at different paces. Along with different pedagogies like differentiated learning to enhance such varied learning experiences, there are many different possible permutations that can happen for the same lesson. While the students may have a more enriching learning experience, the lack of control is terrifying and will be an area for improvement for me.

Facilitator of learning

As a coursework teacher, this resonates the most with me. We become facilitators to provide students with the autonomy to explore and participate in their own learning. This also provides students opportunities to build attributes of a self-directed learner: responsibility and self-motivation to complete tasks given.

Connect: I can connect with Lifelong Learner. We have to keep up with the rapid advancement of technology in order to design lesson suitable to the needs of the students. We are also dealing with students of varied profiles. Hence, we should continue to learn new pedagogies to keep students engaged during lessons.

Extend: I would like to learn more on the various pedagogies in order to be an effective Designer of Learning.

I have been learning how to be a more discerning and patient student mentor. Students often look up to a role model and someone to confide in. This requires me to have a lot more discernment, heart and patience as to how to speak to them.

I would like to be a effective facilitator of learning as I do not want to just impart knowledge in a didatic manner but rather motivate and encourage their own learning. This requires me to continually learn and adapt in my subject field as well as in the roles that I play.

Enhancing skills in this area will enable better collaboration with colleagues, sharing best practices, and creating a supportive learning environment.
