- Learning is facilitated in a coherent manner using appropriate methodologies in line with established principles associated with selected methodologies.
- The learning environment and facilitation approach promotes open interaction and ensures learners are aware of expected learning outcomes and are active participants in their own learning.
- The facilitation approach and use of facilitated activities enables learners to draw from and share their own experiences and work out and apply concepts for themselves.
- Facilitation contributes to the development of concepts through participation and provides opportunities to practise and consolidate learning.
- Facilitation promotes the achievement of agreed learning outcomes by individuals while maintaining an emphasis on the manner and quality of the learning experience.
- Groups are managed in line with facilitation principles and in a manner that maximises the strengths of group learning while recognising the needs and requirements of individual members.
- Questioning techniques are consistent with the facilitation approach, promote learner involvement and contribute towards the achievement of learning outcomes.
- Opportunities are created to monitor learner’s progress in terms of the agreed outcomes, and where possible facilitate the gathering of evidence for assessment purposes. Where necessary, modifications are made to the facilitation approach to ensure the learners’ needs are addressed. Evaluate learning and facilitation.
- Learner and stakeholder feedback on facilitated learning is sought and critically analysed against review criteria. The review reveals strengths and weaknesses of the planning, preparation and facilitation of learning.
