1.0 Introduction This journal discussed about how employability embedded within courses to prepare students for their transition into the world of work or postgraduate study, identifying the teaching and learning strategies employed (Graham, 2017). In this study assessed employability skills desired as the roles of work placement tutor from the perspectives of related groups such as university, students and employers. This paper described the methodology employed, results of the study and conclusions
which the knowledge, skills, and habits of a group of people are transferred from one generation to the next through teaching, training, or research (Wikipedia). The English word ‘education’ etymologically derived from Latin words like ‘educare’ which means ‘to bring out’ or ‘to nourish’, ‘educere’ which means ‘to lead out’ or ‘to draw out’, ‘educatum’ which means ‘act of teaching’ or ‘training’, ‘educatus’ which means ‘to bring up, rear, educate’.

However, the young Herbart kept himself away from the practical theory and ‘scientific theory’ of his mentor. He developed his own realistic philosophy by using the conflicts inherent in idealistic philosophy. Nevertheless, Herbart remained throughout his life true to the strict style of thinking of his teacher Fichte. He also tried
on war; pacifistic and the ‘Just war theory.’ A pacifist is someone whom considers that no matter what war is never justified and follows the word of Jesus Christ “You have heard that it was said, 'An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth.'

Various theories have been developed over the years, which are essential to the understanding of how individuals ‘acquire, retain and recall knowledge’ (The Peakperformacecencenter.com,
necessity of the teacher to relate the lessons to the needs, interest and problems of learners. Another principle of the same proponent states that learning is a consequence of experience. It supports one of the constructivist theories, which is discovery-learning theory by Bruner. It states that the learner’s experiences and learnings from the past influences and helps easily integrate them to new information. Students interact with the world by discovering and handling
model (2000). The research design used for this study is based on an action research design. Action research is defined as a research strategy that is put into practice by teachers to investigate a problem or area of interest specific to their teaching practice environment (Coats, 2005). Action research aims to achieve social change by producing data that support strategic action for change (Mountz et al, 2008). The action research process that is used by the researcher as seen in figure 1 above
Log 1 In chapter 1 of Learning and Instruction: Theory into Practice by Margaret E. Gredler, the reader is introduced to an abundance of information regarding theory development in relation to the classroom, rules for teaching according to different theorists and principles, developments that are grabbing the attention of teachers, such as constructivism and research on the brain, and the reader is briefly introduced to seven perspectives, or theories, that are going to be explained and compared in
students could glean from mutual teaching dates back as early as the Roman Quintilian school in the 1st century AD, Britain in the early 1800’s and the United States in the 1970’s. It wasn’t until the 1980’s, that there has been a widespread use of cooperative learning as an educational strategy (Lv, 2014). The positive effects that cooperative learning has on academic achievement and motivation has already been well documented. A plethora of motivational theories have also been developed in the
intelligent, demonstrating impressive teaching expertise. In particular, I was fascinated by their original and unique teaching methodology. I came to realize that education should be dominated by advanced concepts, assisted by effective teaching strategies, both of which are vitally important for bringing out a greater social role from education. Education represents for me a field in which I can achieve satisfying personal development. Out of my love of teaching and with distinguished undergraduate
