It’s really no surprise that most of us don’t taste success in our academic, professional and personal lives. All one needs to do is take a look back at our learning practices. The truth is that our approach to learning seems redundant at best and extremely tone-deaf to the current demands of life. How so? The reason is simple- Learning is steeped in individualistic patterns of behaviour. Think about it- we prepare alone for a test, we take the test by ourselves, our school assignments are graded on personal performance...this list could go on. So how do these practices translate in our real, everyday lives? Do they equip you for the world today? Does it give birth to leaders who can work in a team and motivate those around them? Does it equip children and young adults with problem solving abilities that help them think on their feet? Does it help you employ the use of diplomacy in awkward situations, with difficult people? Does it prepare you for healthy confrontation? Does it help you provide objective feedback? Whatever your age, if you were the product of a redundant individualistic, learning practice, you have most probably missed out on a major ingredient to being successful- learning through COLLABORATION. The 4CFT EduSkills has chartered the best courses to give you a hands-on learning experience that enables you to acquire the best leadership practices through collaboration. So how does collaboration with 4FCT equip you for today’s world?

a) Group learning:

Learning in groups helps you explain and discuss concepts or ideas with other individuals within your team. This is a positive step toward practising the much-needed skills of articulating ideas and public speaking.

b) Enhances problem solving:

Problem solving is the by-product of group work that comes with collaborative learning. It enables each group member to pull their weight of work and chip in to get a task completed, thereby giving them a simulated experience of career-based roles. They are compelled to come up with creative solutions that take care of pressing issues to bring about long-term productivity.

c) People skills:

Dealing with people in groups helps you understand their needs, wants, their motivation, etc. It sharpens and hones specific people skills that enhance tact and diplomacy which guarantee you long term career success.

d) Improves cultural awareness:

The 4CFT EduSkills Collaborative learning emphasizes an inclusive culture where one understands and is appreciative of people from different backgrounds. This cultural diversity is leveraged to get work done in different ways through a range of new ideas. As Sundar Pichai once said, “A diverse mix of voices leads to better discussions, decisions and outcomes for everyone”.

Do you think you should have mastered the art of collaboration like....yesterday?
