With the following four variables in place, a learner can exceed expectations. 1. A good prompt, motivating challenge, or thoughtful question 2. Appropriate materials 3. Sufficient time 4. Supportive culture, including a range of expertise The genius of this approach is that it is self-evident. If you lack one of the four elements, it is obvious what needs to be done

Kakenya Ntaiya Extraordinary Teachers

shared by Peter Horsfield on 19 Feb 14 - No Cached

Peter Horsfield on 19 Feb 14

What we take for granted, the women in Kakenya Ntaiya's village are denied of. A member of the Maasai community, Kakenya and her fellow women were looked down by men in their society. In a way, cultural customs discouraged a woman's success. Before they even get to high school, they are married off and get relegated to a life of service to their husband and children. But Kakenya fought her way to college, eventually becoming the first Maasai woman to achieve such feat. And because women do not forget, she founded The Kakenya Center for Excellence to give back. To read more about Kakenya Ntaiya visit www.thextraordinary.org.
