The workshop helped me to understand how to work with the children in the classroom. I also learnt how to ask open-ended questions that will encourage my learners to think and to ask more questions.

I was very happy about my development on this course… often as teachers we do not pay attention to detail, but because of Basic Concepts I was aware of the lack of language use in my class. I am now using a different approach with my learners and being aware of the small details that make a big change in the way I teach and learners learn. Thank you for this eye opening course.

Teachers use questions that evoke thinking and inquiry, so that the learners are able to discover and experience for themselves.

The work … is certainly original, and in some important aspects constitutes a contribution to the fund of knowledge about cognitive development and early education.
