TCX 27: THINKING ABOUT THINKING

Where is the “Box” We’re Supposed to “Think” Outside of?

We are often told that being able to “think” is good and that “thinking outside the box” is even better. Just as often, we accept the foregoing maxim as true without even needing to pause and think. But suppose we do. Suppose we take time to think about what it actually means to “think”, and to unravel the relationship between “thinking”, “knowledge” and “truth”? How might all this inform our practice as tutors? TCX 27 interrogates these issues in relation to ODL education.

As a tutor, I believe that I can help learners to create learning spaces by:

Encouraging them to think independently by giving them short essay tests
 
Encouraging them to work as a group
 
Adding variety to the assignments and encouraging them to think from a different perspective
 
Ensuring that the tutorial room is always conducive for the learners
