Informal society learning institution


Learning can happen in both formal and informal situation, or environment or different place.  Professional trained teacher might use learning theories to help to teach learners.  Learning theories might help the teacher to reflect on teaching.  Another thing which learning theories might help the teacher is will be able to explain some things which are happening in the class room.

When comes to informal learning is taking place in accordance with the theories but they different is that people who are involve in those leaning situation are not aware of them.  They might lack the understand and the science of how people learn some learning is taking place.  learning is taking place socially and connectily and so on

Podcasting


What I have learned about podcast is that the technology and the educational materials are there for use to use but we are not aware.  The only time we engage our self in podcast is when we want entertainment .  when work on the street on schools grounds you see learners with earphone on their eyes listening to music.  Teacher need to take this opportunity and provide learners with podcast materials so that they can listen to them everywhere they are and anytime they are.  Learners can also be shown how to created their own podcast.  Teacher can asked or intruct learners to record themselves about certain topic after that learners can post on the net so that other learners can listened to it. 

 
The give opportunity for those learners who are afraid or shy to ask talk.  Another important thing I learned about podcasting is that it can be used to clarified misconception and misunderstanding about learners.  Learners can assess each other.
