Metro Central Training: WCED (February, 2015)

Practical demonstration of mediation. Louis is an excellent mediator and it really helped to see it demonstrated. Loved the dedication, enthusiasm and firm belief in worth of BC approach to learning.

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

The BCP is about the way we talk to the children in class and how we give lessons in class. How we should introduce a topic to the children and mediate with them.
