Remedial activity
Encourage learners to set a goal for developing a quality they haven’t focussed on before: Divide the class into pairs and ask each learner to come up with one positive quality about the other. Use this as a focus for extending personal potential. (This may be an especially useful exercise for learners who do not have a specific area of interest or achievement, as they will learn to see themselves positively through the eyes of others.)
Activity 5 Develop a strategy to extend your personal potential
Background information
The purpose of this activity is for learners to identify their strengths and develop ways to enhance them to their full potential. The activity will help to improve their self- concept and also make them more self-motivated.
