WEEK 9 (24/01/13)

Today, after the microteaching session on 'My wellbeing', which has been really interesting because of the use of ICTs when teaching, the session has been teacher-centred, that is, we have focused on how teachers have to behave to succeed in class. In this sense, I think that it has been very interesting because the different handouts we have received might help us in our Practicum II. In order to do this, our professor has given us a ten-level scale to take into account in order to achieve a good working atmosphere. Furthermore, we have read a chart with different items about what effective teachers appear to do; techniques to engage and motivate learners; different teacher behaviours and a short self-reflection questionnaire about it; some classroom routines and protocols and, finally, how to use questioning and elicitation techniques effectively in English.

This week, I have added to my symballo a webpage called Hotpotatoes that a teacher from the Master presented to us. Hotpotatoes is very interesting as it allows you to create your own materials easily, for instance, a multiple choice activity.
