| Description du stage : |
A critical issue associated with Integrated Agriculture-Aquaculture
(IAA) is the education and training of current and new entrants to IAA with
respect to appropriate and sustainable aquaculture methods. A Participatory
Action Learning (PAL) session is designed to provide farmers/trainees with
opportunities for self-discovery of an effect, a relationship or a concept
rather than the traditional classroom setting and the remembering of facts. PAL
sessions have the facilitator guide participants through the ELC and allow
participants to learn from there own experiences and not from the facilitator's
knowledge. In Canada The intern will undertake extensive predeparture preparation prior to their overseas posting including: research of host organization and country; health assessment /immunizations, travel arrangements and accommodations; access to intern resource centre/library; and one week prior to departure, all interns meet at MI for briefings. During the week, the interns will undertake consultations with former interns, faculty members, and expats; and participate in a three-day predeparture briefing conducted by The Centre for Intercultural Learning (CIL). This briefing includes: cross-cultural effectiveness (e.g. communicating with difficult people, emotional intelligence); culture shock awareness; personal and professional career planning and goal setting; health and safety; gender issues related to local context; international and country development issues; presentations to one another; and group work. Interns are trained in results based management and report writing. Interns are provided contact information for host organization and supervisor to allow for introductions, delineation of duties, and expression of desired outcomes or expectations prior to departure. Interns are also matched with a network of local/national/ international contacts within their field. Overseas The training development intern will be tasked with using Participatory Action Learning (PAL) to develop a field school curriculum to educate new and existing fish farmers. |
