Possible class structure

 

This section contains recommendations for a teaching sequence and timing intended to achieve learning outcomes through a three-hour class. The lecturer may wish to disregard or shorten some of the segments below in order to give more time to other elements, including introduction, icebreakers, conclusion or short breaks. The structure could also be adapted for shorter or longer classes, given that the class durations vary across countries.

• 0 - 10 mins  » Briefly introduce topic, session learning outcomes and outline structure.
• 10 - 50 mins  » Discuss regional system 1 (selecting regions of most interest or relevance to your teaching context, including for comparative discussion and analysis; include Case study 1 if considering the African system)
• 50 - 55 mins  » Short break
• 55 - 95 mins  » Discuss regional system 2.
