1.1 EXPOSURE
Conducting an ocular inspection of the school for resources

 Do an ocular inspection of your assigned classroom, as well as other classrooms in

the school. Go also to the library. Visit also the media center (MC), the learning
resource center (LRC), and the laboratory (e.g. science lab, speech lab etc). List

1.5 DISSEMINATION
Preparing a power point presentation on resources for sharing
Come up with a powerpoint presentation, or video presentation on different resources
which you can share with your fellow students. In addition, you can lead discussions on
where to use such materials. Write below an outline or list of the plates / slides that you
will develop before you finally come up with the powerpoint presentation.
