    As facilitators we are supposed to give our learners ownership,to choose what they want to learn and how they want to learn,but it should be meaningful to them and to the community as well..


    As facilitators we should foster international mindedness,make the learners value different perspectives , different cultures and respect as well.

It's not just about teaching content.

    I will plan the lecture more inquiry based.
