Microteaching presentation

MICROTEACHING

JULY 2014P.E.M.I.

MARIA ELENA ALVAREZ

The goal of each microteaching activity is

to provide you an opportunity to design and facilitate a lesson using a

specific method of instruction covered in

class.

The microteaching activities offer an arena for

demonstration of your organizational skills, communication skills,

application of educational theory and your

understanding of the standards that makeup the

program`s conceptual framework.

OBJECTIVE

Apply understanding of

essential theory and principles to guide classroom decision

making.

Implement the stages of planning concepts to generalization, and

performance objectives to instructional strategies and

to incorporate advanced technology skills into these

plans.

Design and implement lesson

plans that correlate to

standard course study.

Plan and implement a variety of effective

instructional strategies appropriate to diverse

cultural groups and inficidual learning styles

and abilities.

Assess field experiences through the use of reflective

portolio and investigate teacher thinking through a series of teacher interviews and

research.

Demonstrate and reflect on the growth made as a

teacher through the design of a portfolio.

Demonstrate the use of technology to assess student work through written lesson

plans and microteaching.

Generate and categorize examples of work which begin

to fulfill the technology

requirements.

WHAT IS MICROTEACH

ING?

Is a teaching laboratory in which groups of student

teachers explore the processes of teaching and learning by

alternately teaching and responding as

learners.

o We learn: from feedback on our own teaching

o from being “students” while others teach, and

o from the conversations about these experiencies.

The basic premise of microteaching is that

there are many different ways to be an

effective teacher and that we can expand

our effectiveness by observing other

teaching styles and strategies and by

discussing shared issues of teaching and

learning, no matter our discipline, unique

style, or years of experience.

We try to make sure that each small group has a

wide diversity. In a sense, microteaching is a way of getting a mini-liberal arts

education.

PROCESS

Each person teaches

the indicated minute

segment of a class,

others respond as

“STUDENTS”.

You might think on bringing: slides, overhead transparency, painting, cartoon,, chart, graph, etc. or a short text (half page or less) that has the power to evoke or illustrate a key concept.

IN SHORT THOUGH, BE YOURSELF

If you are using a handout bring

enough for everyone.

Do whatever it is you normally do in

your classroom.

Treat other participants as your

regular students.

Think of the minute segment as a “slice”

of a whole class.

We hope that you will experiment with your teaching during this

semester.

REMEMBER: Those not presenting will listen and participate as students, and, when the teaching segment is finished, they will offer constructive feedback.

Facilitators will enforce time limits strictly, so that everyone has en equal chance to teach and to receive feedback.

And finally,

Our evaluations tell us that participants leave microteaching with a clearer and more positive sense of their teaching, with a greater appreciation for the teaching styles of others, and with an enlarged sense of the possibilities offered by the classroom.
