Education Essentials

We are at education essentials, the first section of introduction to education lecture. Starting with the definition, education is the process and or product of facilitating ones’ acquisition of KSA`s (Knowledge, Skills and abilities). Most are familiar with formal education; this is a type of education which is formally approved by a government or some accreditation body. If you studied at school, the school`s program was approved by the government or some agency. Some part of formal education which is called compulsory education is a mandatory, so usually it`s imposed by the government and with some exceptions required to some people.

The formal education will include school and university, but compulsory education usually includes just school or a part of the school. Fortunately, or unfortunately formal education is not the only, it is probably the lowest, the minor part of what we learn or how we learn or how we educate ourselves with someone’s help or without and let`s say this lecture is not a part of formal education. If we will get to a more formal training then it will be approved by some accreditation body but for now this lecture is not a part of a school program, it`s not a part of a college, it`s just for you to get a glimpse of what we are about to offer.

Education has its objectives, an education objective is a goal of gaining specified knowledge, skills and abilities by a learner as a result of specified learning activity or set of activities. There is no one single classification of different objectives but one. The most very popular came from works of American educator whose name was Benjamin Bloom.

Let’s take a look at cognitive domain of Bloom`s taxonomy of educational objectives, in the base of his pyramid he put recognize or later understand, apply further analyze, evaluate and create. Recognize is the beginning, so let`s say we are about to learn a new language and initially you start recognizing some words, “hello.” And you say, “hello.” You recognize it`s a greeting but you don`t know part of the speech. Later when you go, you can go to a more understanding part so then you can describe and you can identify, you can say hello is an informal greeting. There are more formal like good evening or good afternoon. Then you can apply or start applying, operate, use, execute later you can analyze, examine, test, organize. You can put let`s say, “hello Jenifer” or, “John.” Well you can say, “John hello.” So you can test, examine, put in different parts then you can evaluate, or value, weight, critique, say hello is probably not too appropriate, and here you say, “good afternoon senator John Foster” or whatever and at the top of the pyramid, right now it`s great which is designed from Bloom`s taxonomy. Initially taxonomy proposed by Benjamin Bloom, the last two parts of the pyramid was revised. Initially it was synthesizing and then evaluate but for our purposes, it does not matter too much. As fast as you note it discuss only cognitive domain but Benjamin Bloom identified three different domains and they coincide with attitude and so we talked about cognitive domain, which deals with knowledge, another domain which is effective which deals with emotions and here we are developing skills through hands on activities. Practice you will get some emotions or I like it or I don`t like it.

There is the main, Benjamin Bloom called psychomotor domain. It deals with actions. Once again, knowledge, emotions and actions by Benjamin Bloom they were divided in three different domains.

So now we are ready to go to educational methods.

Overview

Friends Of CNM Communities is a network of CNM Friends grouped by either their industries or their occupations. Take a look at the picture under Friends Communities. On the top in brown is the industries councils and here communities are grouped on the industry such as communications or law or recycling or retail and at the bottom is a professional committees and in these committees members are grouped based on their occupations. So, it could be project managers or doctors, nurses, construction workers or air traffic controllers and so on. The direction of what is on the top or what is in the bottom can be any, they are chosen sporadically because Friends of CNM Structure is organic, it can play in any way or any role. In industry councils you find that one particular community is very different, it`s called community board. The community board groups members on the basis of their particular industry and these industry is called work force services, and so basically this is what Friends of CNM are supposed to do. That is why this particular board oversees WorldOpp Team which oversees what Friends of CNM intended or what they intend to do. Any friend can initiate a new community, once again the structure is very flexible. Particularly WorldOpp Team, it takes care of CNM Digital.
