Teaching Tips

Characteristics of Post-Modern Learners

1. Knowing goes beyond reason – There are ways of knowing that go beyond reason & rationality. Experiencing it through all senses may be more effective in bringing change.

2. Less impressed with well-reasoned arguments than with integrity of the person who teach them.

3. Suspicious of dogma – what’s truth for you may not be truth for me. Doubts should not be looked down. Engage them in dialogs, encourage them to ask questions, even to argue.

4. Decision making based on experience, emotions, & friendships


• Build Commonality: Ask question, explore about their feelings about the subject, ask to see a demonstration the meaning. Try to meet practical needs.
• Accepting the child and his interests will open the door for them to listen and accept your ideas and values. Acceptance does not necessarily agreeing with them.
