"ACTIVE vs PASSIVE LISTENING" MIND MAP

HOW TO BE AN ACTIVE RATHER THAN A PASSIVE LISTENER - ST 13 Mar 2014
It was really a coincident that the article of what one should
do to become a more ACTIVE Listener OVER that of a PASSIVE Listener  appeared in The Straits Times on the same day as I was going to do a revision for my students on the above subject.

Of course, I was thrilled and set upon myself to make a mind map summary of the article on an A6-sized paper in about an hour. Using a visualiser, I was able to present a summary of the subject to my students. I hope they manage to see and learn how to make a mind map summary of an article. Enjoy.

My MIND MAP of ROBERT GAGNE's INSTRUCTIONAL DESIGN THEORY for LEARNING

ROBERT GAGNE's NINE INSTRUCTIONAL EVENTS FOR LEARNING TO HAPPEN
I first came across Robert Gagne's nine events of instructions for learning soon after attending the WSQ's "Advanced Certificate for Testing and Assessment" (ACTA) course. The ACTA course was conducted by Ms Oei Min, a very experienced WSQ instructor and facilitator of learning.

I find Gagne's nine instructional events theory an interesting supplement/guide in teaching my students. After many years of teaching students to learn and how to learn, I have learnt that by adding the element of FUN as much as possible to every one of the nine steps, one can enhance learning and retention. Please enjoy the mind map.
