Module details and indicative content
Learns will explore the key aspects of the development of an effective learning environment in the mentor or educator role, and develop an appreciation of how knowledge of pedagogy underpins the facilitation of learning.
They will evaluate learning styles and consider how knowledge of this can facilitate learning and explore the concept of interprofessional working and learning in everyday working practice.
They will also analyse how cultural differences can impact upon facilitation of learning and the process of mentoring as well as reflect upon their own ability and role in facilitating learning.
