There are four person
were assigned to do demo for different teaching strategy. The teaching strategy
they were using is the following; interactive learning, facilitating
presentation, experiential learning and active learning. These four people
present their chosen topic as they were using their assign strategy. During the
demonstration I have observe that there are strengths and weaknesses in the
part of the person who demonstrate. These strengths and weaknesses become more
visible and clearly emphasized when the assigned commentators including Miss
Amphi shared their observation regarding the performance of the presenter before,
during and after the demonstration. Each presenter was given 20-30 minute
presentation.
These
are the highlights of the strengths and weaknesses among the four presenters.
For the strengths, most of the presenter familiarized their assigned learning
strategy , they have voice quality, their objectives is clear, they also
prepare some activities that will help the students understanding and encourage
them to participates in class discussion and one of the presenter acknowledge
his references. Although I can sense that most of them are confident while
presenting their topic. As what Miss Amphi said, they know the content of their
topic. They can explain well and elaborate more by giving example.
For
the weaknesses, first in terms of the preparation of the materials the
presenter must prepare ahead of time before his discussion so that it could not
be dragging and time consuming. Example if the presenter uses the LCD this must
be prepared before the discussion. Another one if he is using props then assigned
somebody to prepare for it so that there is a student engagement and if
possible avoid enumeration of the materials presented. Second, the strategies
they are using are not clearly emphasized during discussion. Third in
entertaining question, the presenter does not necessary immediately answer the
question. Give it back to the class because it is one way to check if the
students follow and understand the discussion. If still the question was not
answered then that’s the time the presenter answer it. Fourth dealing with the
late and always goes out in the class in the middle of the discussion. If
someone is late and enter at the middle of your discussion, just continue and
give a sign that they can come in. For those always asking permission to go out
at the middle of the class discussion, give them a time before the start of the
class to go in the comfort room so that they cannot disturb the class.
These
are some reminders also for the presenter. Don’t talk while the students are
still noisy. If someone is talking while you are discussing just approach the
person but continue your discussion. Have an eye to eye contact to the student
during the discussion. Accept suggestion and appreciate those who participate.
Before doing their group activity please gives clear instruction what to do
before they go to their group. For those group who does not doing their task
you can either sit in or just go ear to their group. If possible give them time
limit so that they can maximize their time and not tempted to do other things.
In
my overall assessment I learned a lot from the strengths and weaknesses shown
by the presenter. This will helps a lot in my future ministry year. I can be
more aware what to do to be an affective teacher during my ministry year.
