Module 10 Objectives

By the end of this module, learners will: List principles and approaches of adult education

for training health workers Describe a conducive learning environment that

enables active skills practice and learning Identify locally appropriate learning aids Provide examples of training methods and

experiences that are interactive Explain the need to monitor, evaluate and revise

training

Time Is Needed for Practice

This module presents the 12 effective teaching skills quickly

Facilitators should plan practical opportunities for learners (e.g., community-directed intervention [CDI] focal persons) to develop sample community-directed distributor (CDD) learning sessions based on these modules

1. Lay the Foundations forEducating Health Care Providers

Lay strong foundations by:• Describing the guiding

principles of adult education for training health care providers

• Defining core tasks and competencies and their role in curriculum development and design

• Recognizing effective approaches to teaching and learning

• Listing the challenges in educating health care providers

5

Adults learn best when they can share what they already know and learn more by actively doing

2. Develop Objectives for Learning

Focus your training by: Identifying the

knowledge, skills and attitudes to be learned in your course

Writing measurable, observable objectives

Writing supporting objectives

Sample

By the end of this session, the CDD will: Determine whether a child has

fever Administer and interpret a

rapid diagnostic test (RDT) Provide age-appropriate

artemisinin-based combination therapy (ACT) for malaria

Counsel a caregiver on the need for taking a full course of ACT

Ask a caregiver to report back if child does not improve

Summary

Training health care workers—including CDDs— should be based on principles and approaches of adult education

The learning environment should be conducive to learning and enable active skills practice

Locally appropriate learning aids should be developed and used

Training methods and experiences should be interactive

Training should be monitored, evaluated and revised
