Mediation skills

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Under communication skills is the ability, content competent and target groups to work up and knowledge of course pass it on. It also includes the ability to convince the teacher of the correctness of the knowledge acquired.

Communication skills include an appropriate articulation skills , so the time schedule of a learning process and various teaching skills, for example in the social skills , the information literacy , the communicative competence, methodological competence , the expertise and personal skills can be found again.

The current problem of communication skills is that the dynamics of knowledge make knowledge transfer more difficult. Due to the current flood of information , knowledge is becoming more and more complex and therefore more difficult for the individual to grasp.

Mediation skills in education

One type of mediation skill that should be learned in childhood is that of parents towards their child. As a parent, you are essentially responsible for bringing up a child or young person. Certain forms of competence are particularly in demand here:

All this together results in a comprehensive mediation competence.

Communication skills in school pedagogy

Mediation skills is the teacher's ability to pass on other key skills and knowledge . The communication skills of school teachers are made up of the skills that parents also have and, in addition, methodological skills, specialist skills, media skills and information skills. Depending on the age group to be taught, it can be concluded to what extent certain competencies are required. For an interaction between student and teacher to be possible at all, the teacher must show an open attitude towards student interests, needs, ideas and activities.

Communication skills in trainer action

A special form of communication competence takes place in the actions of the trainer in sport, as the sporting results mean that the results are checked much faster and more directly in competition. While the German-speaking training theory consists of the predominantly biological knowledge of the training process, the Anglo-Saxon coaching science includes communication skills . The management behavior (and its effect) is therefore checked much more systematically with the corresponding test procedures (e.g. Chelladurai's Leadership Scale of Sport (LSS) , Jowett's coach-athlete relationship perspective ), because communication skills are seen as the bottleneck through which the trainer's expertise is applied. Since there are no courses in Germany that directly qualify as a trainer (with BA and MA), the corresponding textbooks, in contrast to Anglo-Saxon literature, are not geared towards teaching and research.

Placement skills in the professional world

In almost all professional fields (e.g. management) you need mediation skills , which are made up of specialist skills (central requirement for constructive understanding), professional skills, communication skills, methodological skills, media skills and planning skills (flexibility, time efficiency and goal orientation). It is also important to acquire knowledge, to evaluate it, to process it as required, to present it and to be able to communicate.

A trainer has the task, for example, of enabling independent, technically competent, practical and verbal action. He must ensure that he makes the technical content conveyed understandable to his apprentices . To do this, he must follow the following maxims of intelligibility from communication scientist Prof. Heringer take into account: "Speak in such a way that your partner understands you, pay attention to the volume, the speaking speed, explain technical terms and orient yourself to the level of knowledge of the listener."
