TEFL 6 session 2 2019-2020

Getting started

Warm-up

Do you remember all 6 topics and what they entail?

Briefly run past the 6 topics to bring them back to memory so they recognise features in the video.

Reason to watch

Which (elements of) the 6 topics do you recognise in the video?

Power teaching / whole-brain teaching

• cooperative learning: pupils need each other to revise and practise, clear 'structures',...
• activating methodology: all pupils take active part, work together, have to think/memorise,... (but teacher-led)
• brain-friendly learning: physical activity, rituals, digestible chunks, use of emotions, 
• autonomy: they learn to become more autonomous?
• mixed ability: several elements to cater for differences between learners, e.g. notes and symbols on the board, auditory, visual (gestures), safe practice because everyone's talking at the same time and gets support from each other

Which of the 6 topics do you see back in the video?

Learning objectives

• You know the course organisation and the assessment criteria.
• You can start working on the project with your team based on each individual's personal motivation and preferences.

Course outline

1. Course organisation
2. Requirements & assessment
   
3. Getting started - teaching contexts & teaching areas
4. Team work

Course organisation

• Research teams based on choices made
• Teaching context & teaching area
• From theory exploration to application in practice
• Group work > individual assessment
• Course planner on #OO

Introduce the innovative course design:

adaptive & cooperative, but individual assessment, only the flipping clip is assessed per group, the rest is individual.

Each group works on their topic, based on the 1st or 2nd choice. Each group gets a different teaching context/setting + teaching area to work with - info not given can be made up based on the group members' teaching experience. The theory is a type of research and is done together, just like to video in which the theory is applied on the target group. Flipping clip briefly defines the topic and presents the practical application in a persuasive way to other teachers/peers in class. 

Requirements & assessment

Getting started

Team representatives:

teaching contexts & teaching areas

Teams

1. Exchange motivations & personal learning objectives
2. Exchange experience with aimed setting and teaching area
3. Divide tasks based on personal qualities (TEFL7) and preferences 
4. Start planning and organising: Next week = theory exchange

1. Groups first start team-building, just like with the Design Challenge- find out why the other group members have chosen this topic and what they expect to get from this complete course > students may have to adapt this after hearing all course info and requirements earlier during this class. The group members can help each other.
2. Next, they discuss their qualities (kernkwaliteiten) and preferences to divide tasks. Unlike with Design Challenge we do not set specific tasks - it's up to them to plan and organise themselves. 
3. Main thing to discuss in planning is: is it clear what they need to do for the flipping clip and when will they (each) work on the task?

Cool down

Was this lesson brain-friendly and why (not)?

Was this lesson activating and why (not)?

Was something in this lesson applicable to your own teaching practice?

Follow-up

1. START exploring your topic & target group
2. BRING background information and think about relevance
3. PREPARE to present to your team!
