If you can demonstrate to your trainer that you are competent in a particular skill or
skills, talk to him/her about having them formally recognized so you won’t have to do
the same training again. If you have qualifications or Certificates of Competency

What do you remember about your childhood? What are the happy memories
that you can recall? Do not forget that you were once a child who liked to play all day.
Many times, we see children playing, and we remember what it was like when we were
also of that age.
We should never forget that everyone in this world was once a child. Even before
you grew up, you were also a child who liked to play and have fun.
The United Nations defines a child in this manner: “a child means every human
being below 18 years unless, under the law applicable to the child, maturity is attained
earlier.”
This statement tells us that, according to the United Nations, anyone below 18
years of age is considered a child. However, some countries might have laws that
consider an age lower than 18 years as the age in which the child becomes an adult. If
that is the case, then the law of the country will be followed.
Here are some ways on how these persons, organizations and institutions can
help in the development of a child: The child is one of the most
important assets of the nation. Every

development of the
child. His/her traits and capabilities should be
developed for the betterment of society.
The school, church, community and other organizations can help the
home and the nation in preparing the child for the responsibilities of
adulthood.
The child’s character development
starts at home. Each family member should
try to make the home a wholesome and
harmonious place to live in. This is because
whatever happens at home greatly
influences the child’s development.
Attachment to the home and strong family
ties should be encouraged.
It is the right and duty of parents to raise their children. Parents should
receive the aid and support of the government in rearing the child. Other institutions
should assist the home and the nation in preparing the child for responsible
adulthood. These institutions include the school, the church, social organizations and
the community.

Did you like the song? Try answering the following questions.
You learned that the child is the nation’s most valuable asset. This means that with
proper guidance, the child can grow up to be a responsible citizen who loves his/her country.
If a child learns his/her responsibilities early in life, he/she will be able to contribute to the
development of the nation.
Below are the responsibilities of every child in our society. As you read through each
of these responsibilities, check those which you think are practiced by the children in your
community.
Show your answers to your trainer for further discussion. Also reflect on the

In the previous lesson, you learned about the rights and responsibilities of a
chilled. Did you think about whether or not people in your community were aware of
these rights? Maybe if you asked the people in your community, very few would be able
to identify all the rights of a child.
Children are very important to the nation. They need the proper guidance and
care from their families and other sectors of society so they can develop into responsible
adults. Because of this, the family, the school and the community have roles to play in
the development of each child.
Even if there were many countries around the world that have agreed to uphold
the rights of children, there are still many cases where children’s rights are violated.
There are many reasons why this happens. One reason is that people are not aware of
the rights of children. Another is that the government cannot properly enforce the laws
that protect children’s rights. If there is one thing that is certain, it is that many people do
not understand, or simply do not believe in children’s rights. And so they end up violating
the rights of children.
Look at the pictures below. Can you figure out what situation each picture
describes?
Aside from the family and the school, the community is also responsible for the
development of the child.
A community means a group of people living in one place. It includes the local
government leader, civic leaders and other individuals with common interests and shared
origins.

like their power has been taken away. Manipulating team members will not only damage
communication, but also build resentment. Any member who feels indifferent toward the team will
destroy the “team” feeling and communication. All members must feel dedicated to the team
goals. Certainty also stalls communication since you have shut the door to discussion for other
team members, assuming you already have all the answers.

Communication can be established by avoiding the previously mentioned qualities, and by
integrating the following qualities into the team. Describe your ideas. Don’t assume that other
team members will automatically know all the points of your idea. Ensure understanding with
clear communication of all the points. Treat all embers as equals to ensure camaraderie in the
group. You must be open with all team members. This helps to build trust between all team
members. Stay problem-oriented with all your efforts. Don’t waste your time or energy on
projects which will not lead to solving the problem. Always keep a positive attitude. Allowing a
negative attitude to cast a shadow over the group will reduce the team’s productivity and quality of
work. Be understanding of the other team members. See a situation from their point of view, and

What is a workgroup or team?
In the workplace you will be required to work in a workgroup/team and contribute to the
team environment.
Some of you may have experienced working in a team or playing in a sports team. An
extended family is another example of a team. A common definition of a team is a group
of individuals working together to achieve common goals. The common goals are seen
as more important than the goals of the individuals. An example would be a basketball
team where all members work together and put the team goals (to win matches and get
into the finals) ahead of their own goals (to score the most individual goals).
Choose a team (extended family, sporting association, workgroup) that you currently
belong to or have belonged to.
What was the goal of the team and what was your role?

a cooperative and supportive work environment – as the team develops, the members
begin to trust one another and work in cooperation.
the opportunity to be involved in decision making – all members of the team have the
chance to voice their opinions and be involved in making decisions, which can be
rewarding.
commitment develops – when team members have made decisions they feel absence
of ownership and are committed to making the decision work.
effective problem solving – as team members are encouraged to be involved and offer
suggestions about problems, many solutions are offered, and the team can then
select the best option available.
development of individual skills – team members are able to try many different roles in
the team which leads to an improvement in skill level and confidence.
conflict resolution – team members are working towards the one goal and have
developed the skills and trust to resolve conflicts before they become too serious.

The SMART approach to goal setting suggests that goals should be:
Specific – goals are clear, understood and clearly communicated so that all members
understand what needs to be achieved.
Attainable – goals must be achievable. They should be challenging but not realistic.
Relevant – the goals must be in line with what the group does and important to the group.
Tractable – goals should not be set in an inflexible manner. They should be flexible to
allow for changes of unforeseen circumstances.
What goals does your team at your workplace or training institution have?
Apply the SMART formula to these goals. If you are unsure please ask your trainer or
supervisor.

Contributing to the achievement of goals
In order to achieve workgroup goals, constructive contributions and relevant information
must be shared with other members. It is essentials that good communication occurs
between members.
These things help the group work well and ensure positive contributions are made.
Individuals are also more likely to share information if they feel positive and committed to
the team.
To be a good team member the things you should do to make sure that you are making a
valuable contribution are:
Rod is a member of your team and is very enthusiastic and outgoing. He often dominates
the discussion and like things to be his way. Some of the other members are not
confident enough to say anything to Rod, but you can tell he upsets certain team
members.
Achievement of tasks/goals
Group functioning
At the end of each team meeting members should discuss the team’s performance so that
improvements can be made. When the final task has been completed then the members
should think about well the group performed and what changes or improvements can be
made. Tools such as checklists, feedback forms or team evaluations may be completed
then discussed. The group can also run a structured team discussion where key issues
are discussed.
Asking questions like these and evaluating group performance will allow the group to
improve and increase its members’ performance if they have to work together again.
Even if they do not, this feedback will be valuable for individual members who will work in
a team at some point again in their working lives.
