Innovative Teaching. Learning at Postgraduate Level

A Creative Pedagogy Package from Actual Experience and Experimentation

Document from the year 2015 in the subject Pedagogy - Higher Education, , language: English, abstract: This book is a support and elaboration of the actual experience and experimentation of the course facilitator in Organizational Behavior at postgraduate level. Concrete, specific details and relevant information about creative pedagogy techniques are embodied in this book for purposes of constructing conspicuous images on how the innovative teaching-learning techniques be employed for the learners to be responsibly free in engaging themselves in a conducive academic environment. Innovative teaching-learning through creative pedagogy is a lasting and pervasive tool of educators that involves the whole person of the educators' and the learners' feelings, potentials and intellect. Creative pedagogy is effective when the learners experience greater self-direction and greater freedom to communicate in the academic environment. Experience in real teaching- learning goes along with commitment and conviction to take that wholesome adventure, motivating and non threatening creative pedagogy journey. This book then assures the readers of the pledge of the authors to disseminate a convincing evidence based body of information that teaching-learning at postgraduate level is not just giving lip service nor a come and go exercise and neither a punitive action or a set of stereotyped pattern but rather a great chance of a lifetime for the learners to be responsibly free in engaging themselves in creative pedagogy techniques as instruments of inspiration.
