Introduction training to worker, technician, Supervisor on Lifting Equipments.
Room arrangement:- Communication plays vital role for any training ,the room layout should be well enough to
feel comfortable and easy for training and interaction to each another. Room and seat arrangement should make
every learner easy to Participant in group activities. To encourage and boost interactive communication we had a
U-shape room layout.
.
Introduction:- I am a HSE Supervisor in my esteemed organization which is specialized in Engineering Procurement
and Construction in Oil and Gas Industries across the globe. The companys HSE Policy enables and allows every
individual to right to know work related hazards and control measures as amoral, social and legal liability of
employer. The training session was inducted for the worker, technician, Supervisor on Lifting Equipments safe
operation are the important and purpose of the training is to project the safety and health of call members of the
organization by preventing work site accident, incident ,injuries, ill health.
Responsibilities:- As a moral duty to identify my duties and other aspects of the learners experience which will
help to produce better knowledge to promote equality and inclusion ,identifying the diverse needs of the learner
which can help in promoting participation through various teaching and learning approaches during the teaching
session.
1. Describe the features of inclusive teaching & learning?
Under the Equality Act 2010, all teachers have a duty to promote equality and value diversity.
Inclusion is about:

Ensuring that all leaners are able to participate and feel included.
Working to remove any barriers to full participation by all learners.

Inclusive teaching involves recognizing and meeting the learning needs of all students. It depends on breaking
down barriers to learning and increasing opportunities to participate and achieve.
Use of a wide range of teaching approaches will help to promote equality and diversity and to ensure that learners
are more motivated to participate in learning.
By adopting a combination of approaches you can ensure that:

Teaching is more engaging

Learning needs are met
Learning outcomes are met

Teaching is more engaging: During the session, for the demonstration about lifting of equipments at work site,
the learners ask different questions related to lifting of equipments & providing them the answers and procedures
to follow to consolidate learning and confirm the learning outcomes have been achieved. During the demonstration
of accessories used in lifting equipments, the learners had difficulty in modeling i.e., the process of how to hold and
use sling, ropes etc. The learners initially felt it very difficult to understand the principles to follow i.e., basics. Using
the procedure & guidance which helped them to understand and gather information on safe usage of lifting
machines, sling etc. The procedure & guidance helped the learners to become more independent & confident in
using lifting machines and accessries through which I was able to transfer knowledge and skill to the learners.
Learning needs are met: It was important in teaching session the learning approach should be encourage active &
collaborative learning to provide plenty of opportunities to the learners. During the training session the video
which was played to show the associated hazards related to improper use and holding of equipments during
lifting. Demonstrating the right way to hold equipments while lifting it. During demonstration the learners were
having difficulty in how a daily inspection of Lifting machines will be conducted before using it. To benefit the
learners I provided a checklist which could be used for daily safety inspection of Lifting machines & also made them
to carry out the inspection themselves to consolidate their learning & to provide constructive solution as per
their required. This created a positive and supportive learning environment in the training session.
Learning outcomes are met: To motivate and promote participation of all the learners for inclusive teaching and
learning. I conducted workshop to develop practical skills of the learners which was more cognitive based skills
supported by self study, using a checklist I made sure that each learner had individual learning plan for all the
learners so they could conduct the inspection and understand the hazards with appropriate control measures,
explained hazards associated with Lifting of equipments if they are not being operated according to standard
procedure following hazards may occur, crushing, buried, electrocution etc.
even damaged electrical codes of Lifting machines also hazard it might lead slip, trip and fall. I advised to
learners proper inspection and maintenance procedure have a look every day before use, It should not be
altered or modified, ensure the covers or guards are in place, use it after having training to use that machine, It
should be monthly inspected thoroughly and color coding system should be applied to ensure it is safe to use .
I gave all the learners a separate checklist to ensure all the learners to go through the inspection individually
and assist the learners who found some difficulty during inspection which was assisted by me so that they can
resume independent work in future.
2. Review the effectiveness of teaching and learning approaches, resources and assessment methods and
how these meet the needs of your learners?
In four different ways teaching & learning approaches engaged & motivated the learners, stimulated their interest
& promoted participation during use of Portable Power Tools session. They are as follows.

case studies
Mdelling
Demonstration
Visits

Case studies: In this approach, discuss about an issue in depth and heip to introduce real situations into the class
room about lifting of equipments. Before the discussion the case study is written carefully and contains sufficient
details, that is it contain essential,superfluous and if a appropriate, ambigious information to stimulate analysis
and discussion.This type of approaches helps the leaners to draw on prior knowledge and to link this to new
ideas on Lifting of equipments. Then the learners allowed into group discussion about case study, I supported the
learners as & when required. For getting the feedback on discussion, I instructed the learners to make short
presentation on the key points draw during the group discussion on lifting of equipments. During the end of
the presentation, I concluded the activity by reinforcing the key points on lifting of equipments.
Modelling: This approach is close to demonstrating a skill on Lifting of equipments, but the decision-making process
is shared more explicitly with the learners. In the session, demonstration helps the learners how to something for
e.g. demonstration about the use of ropes or web belts to secure slinging arrangements while lifting equipments
helps how the ropes or web belts are used, but modelling helped the learners to understand additionally, why
something is being done for e.g.why we should use ropes in a proper manner while operating it. Modelling helped
the learners to understand the underlying principles, which in turn will lead them to become more independent
learners. This will help the leaners to transfer their knowledge and skills to other contexts.

Demonstration: During the session, I need to ensure that a demonstration about the use of sling and sling angle while
lifting a equipment, does not simply become a lecture with visual aids. I selected a place for the demonstration,
so that all the learners can see clearly the demonstration about the use of sling. During the demonstration, I
passed the various types of slings among the learners. To make the learners engage & active thru the session, I
planned different way of approaches like by asking questions, or asking them how to use slings for different
equipments or predict the next step. During the demonstration, I explained them the procedure to use the sling
properly while lifting a equipment. After the completion of demonstration, I instructed the learners to practice
the skill about the usage of sling in my presence. Feedback collected from the learners after the completion of
demonstration, to know whether they are carrying out the task correctly or if adjustments need to be made.
Visits: In the session, while visiting a construction area has developed the learners theory & practical session on
properly using of lifting machines and accessories. After the visit, learners can use his knowledge to apply learning
to real-life settings. We have decided which visit will beneficially help the learners. I explained the purpose of
the visit to all the learners, so that they can prepare themselves accordingly for work site. During the visit in a
construction site, we ensured that health & safety requirements are met, institutional guidelines on proper
procedure of lifting equipments are followed & host is aware of the purpose of the visit & characteristics of the
learners. During the visit, I encouraged the learners by completing the checklists, taking notes or photographs or
gather information. After the visit, I planned several activities for leaners related to site visit to provide consolidated leaning on proper use of portable power tools.

Resources: During the session, suitable resources selected for engaging the learners for the effectiveness of
teaching & learning. The resources I choose, engaged the learners, meet the learners need and the safe practices
that should be followed.

ICT,including Power point and internet

o This is one of the teaching & learning approaches. In which the learners provide power point
presentation on key points drawn from the discussion on proper use of lifting machines.
Photo graphs, pictures or diarams

o The awareness, procedure to use hazrdness etc of lifting the equipments are represented by
photographs, pictures or diagram.
Assessment: As a part of progressing, including what is going well and what needs improvement & to achieve it, I
conducted the following suitable assessment methods,
Clarifying understanding and sharing learning intensions
Activating learners as learning resources from one another
3. Explain how you provide opportunities for learners to develop their English, mathematics and ICT skills.
Listening, speaking, reading & writing, ICT, numeracy is the functional skills to be embedded into the training
session.
Speaking skills: In the beginning of the session I had discussion with the learners share their views and through
effective communication we are able to assess their knowledge and skill in lifting equipments. After the
explanations on the hazards on lifting equipments, relevant questions on the subject promoted participation and a
check to the language skill.
Numeracy: Learners are given opportunity to do risk assessment practically. They are given practice to give the
right rating for the risk factor while observing operation of portable power tools. The rating they gave for the
hazards gives a check to numeracy.
ICT Skill: A video game had been shared with each team in the training session in which they had to click the right
pictures for lifting equipments. Learners enjoyed the training session and showed great involvement towards the
session.
4. Explain how you engage and motivate leaners and promote and maintain an inclusive teaching and
learning environment?
Engaging and motivating the learners to promote inclusive teaching: to engage and motivate learners it was
important to stimulate their interest and promote participation, Differentiation to vary approach, according to
leaners needs. Embedding functional skills that allow the learners to use English, maths, information and
communication technology.
Assessment for learning: To make sure knowledge and understanding is taking place, I asked various questions at
various stages to confirm the initial knowledge and level of knowledge and skills, checking through-out the session
that effective learning is taking place, drawing in the individual learner and to improve. I re-phrased the questions
when I felt necessary and considering whether to use open or closed end questions depending on the type of
answers required.
Multi-Sensory Learning: To know their responsibilities during the work course, and developing the skill, of decision
making such as developing and implementing of safe system of work in the workplace carrying out risk assessment
and inspection at various levels and need of monitoring and supervision required for any work or process in the
workplace. Multi-sensory learning can help leaners to understand underlying principles, which in return will lead
them to become more independent learners who will be able to transfer their knowledge and skills to other
context.

I tried to maintain a good eye contact with all the learners. To promote participation during the training session of
lifting equipments , I used questioning throughout the training session to ensure all the learners are able to
remove barriers to full participation by all learners & also responding to their questioning which they asked during
the session. During the session of lifting equipments, I addressed the learners by their name, so that I recognise
them as individuals with the group. Also I acknowledged the learners prior knowledge & experience during the
session, which was also an effective method of engaging and meeting all learning needs with positive outcomes.
Verbal communication: to promote participation during the training session, I used questioning & sharing the
information about the hazards related with lifting of equipments & what control measures should be followed as
remedial measures.
Non-Verbal communication: during the training session of the lifting equipments, I engaged the all leaners thru
proper eye contact & all the learners were interested to wear formal dress as rules to be followed. During the
session, learners participated positively by communication indicating thumps up or gestures to motivate and
applaud the learners to create a positive environment in the teaching session.
Written words images: as an effective method to make the learners, I used a power point presentation to
understand the topic more effectively. I used handouts on lifting machines, accessories etc & ensured that text
is clearly presented and easy to follow to all the learners.
5. Outline how you can give constructive feedback to your learners?
Constructive feedback: Conducting the session with lifting equipments incident investigation, to which the
learners participated positively, as a non-verbal communication indicating thumps up or gestures to motivate and
applaud the learners to create a positive environment in the teaching session. During the question session about
the control measures on portable power tools, verbally communicated by saying well-done, or very good to the
learners who answered and participated positively in the session.
As a written assessment listing the hazards and control measures, I gave the corrective method to write an answer
in hierarchy method for an effective answer. When the sequence had not been properly written, clear remarks are
stated. To make the learning session more effective, I gave positive & constructive feedback on lifting equipments.
