The aim of this study is to identify a teaching strategy which can enable Further Education and Training learners to enquire creative problem solving skills. A programme was formulated to this effect. Four sessions were conducted to the subject of study using facilitation as teaching method. Facilitation engages learners actively in learning activities when compared to traditional and old teaching methods. Participants were engaged in different activities which enable the participants to use creative problem solving skills. At the beginning of the programme, the participants were not as active as towards the end. Based on the creativity that the participants displayed towards the end of the programme, the researcher concludes that the participants were able to acquire creative problem solving skills. / Dissertation (MEd (Guidance and Counselling))--University of Pretoria, 2006. / Educational Psychology / unrestricted

M.Ed. (Educational Psychology) / The pressure exerted on schools in South Africa to provide student support is ever increasing. This is directly attributable to the lack of support in the child’s home, often with both parents being absent due to work obligations. As a result, the growing need for classroom support rests solely upon the teacher. Teachers are finding themselves in a very difficult position, firstly to find the time with already full schedules looking after the curriculum and extramural activities, and secondly feeling incompetent to adequately provide the learner with the required support. The need for inter-professional collaboration between the teacher and the educational psychologist is clear. The educational psychologist is adequately trained to provide the necessary learner support, albeit facing a logistical problem of reaching all the learners in the school. To overcome this problem, the help of the teacher is vitally important. The question that arises and which is investigated further in this study, is: What is the nature of this inter-professional collaboration between the teacher and educational psychologist that is required to address the learner’s need for classroom support? To fully grasp and understand this concept of collaboration, the analysis has been applied within the framework of the existing interaction model which classifies it into two dimensions, one being relationship interaction and the other the interaction with the organisational milieu. The research methodology used in this study can be described as a qualitative study. The study took place within an interpretative paradigm with participants being chosen using a goal-orientated sample. The participants were selected from a single school within the Gauteng educational system, to ensure the study remains focused. The data were collected from research journals, semi-structured individual interviews and uncompleted questionnaires. Finally, the data was analysed by making use of a qualitative content analysis method.

"Guidance renders five distinct services. 1. Services to students in groups. 2. Services to students as individuals. 3. Services to the instructional staff. 4. Services to the administration. 5. Research services. A program of services so all-inclusive is indispensible in a school program that is going to function to capacity. From the same reference we gather five basic assumptions of guidance: 1. Guidance work is not confined to guidance experts. 2. An effective guidance program is possible in a small school. 3. Guidance services cannot be superimposed upon a school but must become through a process of gradual growth an integral part of the school's program. 4. When establishing a guidance program, the range of services should be limited to functions which can be performed adequately by the available personnel. 5. The development of the program is dependent upon the speed with which the staff acquires skill in handling additional guidance tools. These five types of services and five basic assumptions afford a good resume of all the research and practical assumptions developed in this study"--Conclusion. / "August, 1952." / Typescript. / "Submitted to the Graduate Council of Florida State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts." / Advisor: H.

"In the course of conversation at various times with junior and senior teachers attending classes at Florida State University, the writer has concluded that perhaps lack of understanding on the part of teachers with reference to homeroom guidance principles and techniques may be one of the main reasons for the present state of uncertainty in this area. In such conversations one may find a recurrence of questions for which teachers want answers, or at least clearer and better answers. Among the questions commonly asked are the following: What part should the homeroom play in guidance? How long should the periods be? What types of programs should be attempted? What should be avoided? Can any homeroom teacher participate in guidance, or should the emphasis be placed on especially trained and qualified personnel? Where can a homeroom teacher get help in planning guidance activities? It is questions such as the above that the present paper will attempt to answer"--Introduction. / "August, 1951." / Typescript. / "Submitted to the Graduate Council of Florida State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts." / Advisor: Stewart Murray, Professor Directing Paper. / Includes bibliographical references (leaves 48-50).
