Learning Professional Development: this week in LPD we worked in the labs to film interview and to be interviewed. We worked in groups of 3. Firstly by choosing a title for a job which I am interested in. Mine was teaching. As an interview I had to ask questions such as why you are interested in this job. Why did you apply for this post? What skills do you have that is required for this particular job and many more question in relevance to job title. After conducting the role of an interviewer I swapped with my group member by being interviewee and answering the question which I asked before. And then swap to filming this has to be uploaded for our portfolio therefore has to be saved.
Human Financial Recourse Management: this week we looked at reward management, concentrating on the aims and elements of reward. "Reward management is about how people are rewarded in accordance with their value to an organization. It is concerned with both financial and non-financial rewards, and embraces the philosophies, strategies, policies, plans and processes used by organizations to develop and maintain reward systems. Reward management processes deal with the design, implementation and maintenance of reward systems geared to the improvement of organizational, team and individual performance.” (Armstrong 2001, p.611).Basically, rewards are offered to attract employees to an organisation, to retain employees in an organisation, and to engage and motivate employees. Rewards reflect and reinforce what an organisation values. We also looked at welfare which includes health and safety.
Design Online Learning: In the lecture we discussed what we had learned from the learning outcomes in week 8 in relation to humanist, affective and motorist learning. We did this by looking at the lecture slides with few examples. Also this week we were told to look at the undergraduate assignment which had been set. We looked at all 3 theories of cognitive, behaverioul and humanist. Behavioural theory in psychology is a very substantial field: follow the links to the left or right for introductions to some of its more detailed contributions impinging on how people learn in the real world. The cognitive school is probably best defined by exclusion: if it isn’t biological, behaviourist or humanist, it's cognitive. Understanding this further by doing little group activities in the seminar.
