Our Expertise We offer Consultancy Services to the Corporate & Education sectors. We focus on Continuing Professional Development as well as developing instructional material for Learning and Teaching. We offer our services within the UK and throughout the Carribean. Our Unique Method Fetht is an acronym meaning: Focus, Examine, Test, Hypothesise, Transpose. It is a unique interactive model that has been developed to support Learning, Problem-Solving & Improving Focus. This model has been developed through a rigorous academic process since 2004 to current and has been tested on more than 100 undergraduate and postgraduate students with amazing results as well as professionals in the fields of education & business. Research Hypothesis The academic research of this model focused on Problem-based Learning, Deep Thinking and Learning & Relevance. The Hypothesis examined how students:    Utilise a Reflective Journal, clearly outlining      the issues that the journal needs to address.    Utilise Problem-based Learning, including solving      problems or queries, questioning & decision making.    Utilise Deep Approach Methods that encourage learners to      engage in an appropriate & meaningful learning experience. Research Approach The approach to this research encouraged:    Use of prior knowledge.    Group related activities & discussions.    Preparing tasks that identify real problems      from real-life situations. Problem-based Learning Utilising prior knowledge with new knowledge:    The aims of this unit required the learner to solve a problem or query      and whilst doing so, to gain professional wisdom through theoretical      as well as practical knowledge in their chosen field.    Learners were asked to test this knowledge by a demonstration of      meaningful practical work that would evidently display their journey,      growth and a rigorous method of questioning and decision making.    Learners were also asked to demonstrate evidence of reflecting on      their re-examination of their design practice and journey of learning      through the method of a ‘Reflective Journal’. Aims of the Reflective Journal    To help the learner reflect on their initial       thoughts regarding a specific problem.    To help the learner re-examine prior knowledge       with new knowledge.    To help the learner keep checks on how       and what is being learnt at any given time. The Missing Link Throughout the research we noticed that many learners found it difficult to use a reflective journal and didn't know how to integrate new knowledge with prior knowledge. For some, it was also difficult to keep checks on how and what is being learnt at any given time. Fetht has been developed as a result of this knowledge and feedback. This model is also used to prepare our workshop materials and handbooks. Our material supports Deep Learning and Problem Solving by breaking these down to basic step-by-step processes. The processes we use are simple and effective and can be used to enhance any working environment.
