This formula tells us about the sequential steps as how to reach at enrichment level of trainees during training period. This is very useful especially during in-service teacher training. It goes like this…
“1st D” - On first day or second, trainees ‘DENY’ your ideas/concepts what you want to instil in trainees as a take away of the training being imparted. They may have valid reasons of denying your proposals. Like in early 1990s while training the English teachers to integrate teaching of grammar with text/content, I mean not to teach grammar as separate subject. There were vehement objections from the trainees. In such situations, persuade the trainees by giving convincing examples, conduct related activities involving them to prove how the concepts being imparted can work at activity level.
“2nd D” – Despite your efforts to convince them, the trainees ‘DISAGREE’ your proposals. Then dig out the reasons of their disagreements, break their old/outdated beliefs and go on adding freshly evolved concepts. Make them feel that they need to think on what you are going to tell them during training.
“3rd D” – Still many of them express ‘DOUBTS’.
“S” – Support them to clear their doubts. Make them understand why they have doubts.
“E” – Now start enriching them on the new concepts/ideas that you are supposed to do during that training period.
