| Summary: | In a training session, it is important that the target audience understand the topic and process that is being taught to them-- that is basically the reason why there is training in the first place. However, if there are a lot of problems encountered in the learning event, it will be impossible for the audience to meet the set objectives. In this thesis, the trainees were having difficulties understanding the demonstration portion of the training session. The trainees are informal settlers categorized in the Class E demographic. The training was demonstrated by trainers in the front of a room of 30-40 or more people, accompanied only by oral instructions to guide the trainees. The trainees just mimic the trainers in their demonstration, leaving some to ask for the process to be repeated again when they get lost. Needless to say, the training environment did not spur a positive learning attitude in the trainees and caused them to lose interest in both the training program and the spirit of what the organization was trying to initiate in the participants. The training video and manual were created to solve the issues that the trainees of Buklod Tao were having in their SECAP Training, particularly on Compost Production. The intervention was made using the following frameworks: The Individual Training Model of Bramley and The Learning Unit Model of Truelove. The results show that the trainees find the alternative methods-training video and manual-more appealing, as it retained and engaged them in the prospect of making a livelihood out of turning something commonplace like trash into a financially and environmentally beneficial venture. The results also show that the intervention was an effective tool to make their target audience understand the process of Compost Production in an easier, more relatable way. |
