Key Concepts and Sights
Today's session began with an engaging activity led by Prof. Sridhar Iyer, who prompted us with the question, "What are the best things you can do?" He gives us time to reflect on this, answer it individually and then we shared our thoughts with one another. The session then focused on two key teaching frameworks namely Triangle of Effective Learning and Bloom’s Taxonomy. Both frameworks help educators develop clear and well-defined learning outcomes for their courses, ensuring a structured and effective approach to teaching.
Teaching Methodology
In this segment, I learned that the Triangle of Effective Learning is an educational framework that emphasizes the relationship between three key components namely Learning Outcomes, Instructional Activities, and Assessment. This framework encourages learners to achieve mastery through active practice and engagement, rather than merely passively listening to lectures. Additionally, we explored how to formulate learning outcomes using Bloom's Taxonomy. A well-defined learning outcome consists of two main elements which are action verb, which specifies the intended cognitive task, and a content reference, which identifies the subject matter to be learned.

Lab Session
We manage to visit the Spoken Tutorial project (studio), which utilizes audio-visual tutorials to effectively teach students various IT skills (Open source software). This innovative approach allows learners to engage with instructional content in a self-paced, interactive manner, enhancing their understanding of technical subjects.
