Wind energy is one of the renewable energy sources. Unlike non-renewable sources, they cannot be depleted. Wind energy replenishes itself naturally. As the world’s energy demands grow, it is therefore ideal for Africa now to consider such non-renewable energy technologies as wind energy. This is not only because it cannot be depleted but also wind energy does not pose much threat to our environment. Thus, wind energy as one of the clean energy can be counted to replace fossil fuels. Wind power is produced by a wind turbine. A turbine converts the kinetic energy, that is, the force of the wind acting on rotor blades into mechanical energy (torque). The rotational energy can be put into usage in a range of options including power generation, windmills, wind generators, and water pumps. Wind turbines can be located onshore or offshore (Asumadu-Sarkodie and Owusu, 2016). Wind energy technologies are already being manufactured and deployed on large scale across the world. ...
As a language teacher, I have been open-minded and flexible in my teaching practice. I always adhere to the theories of teaching including planning, delivery, assessment and giving feedback. In my planning for instance I use both the initial and diagnostic assessment to assist learners to develop IPL. In lesson planning, I employ pedagogy and teaching style that take into account learners’ needs. Considering Vark's learning style theory (Neil Flemming in 1987), I carefully model my delivery style to ensure my students meet the objectives I set for the lesson. Depending on the type of learners in my class (that is audio, visual or kinaesthetic), I chose the channel the ensure the content of the lesson is put across. For instance, I give out notes, and handouts; use textbooks, write notes on the board or project visual materials for visual learners to absorb what I teach. In case, I have Auditory learners in my class, I incorporate audio by either reading as they listen or they read...
