Teaching Demonstration Filming Project: Describing What Technology Products Can Do

I was so thrilled that today's two teaching demonstrations with Class 912 panned out the way I planned. All the desired activities kept the students engaged throughout the whole filming process. Though I only met them twice for the two classes that I sat in for, their performances were much better than I expected, especially given the fact that it has been over two weeks after they took the CAP exam. Now, let's relish some memorable moments:

Teaching Demonstration Filming Project: English reading activities

I always search for ideas and techniques from Task Based Learning and Backward Design when planning my lessons for teaching demonstrations. With a series of reading activities, students actively and collaboratively experienced how their comprehension of the reading passage can be improved by completing the pre, main and post tasks based on TBL.

On top of that, Backward Design focuses beginning with the end, meaning you start lesson planning by determining the desired outcomes first. Following that, you then look for activities to help equip students with what they need to perform the next one. In other words, Because my students have effective scaffolding beforehand, I want them to run out of excuses not to be able to complete the tasks.

Mind Mapping and Gallery Walk by Class 702

Gallery Walk has been my favorite teaching activity in class and workshops since I attended the Global English seminar at Seoul back in 2014 because it’s so intriguing and engaging that can involve all students to speak English regardless of their mixed abilities.
