Questions.

March 18th, 2011



1. What did I learn today?

2. How is this connected to my future experience?

3. What are 3 concepts / would high light from today´s lesson?  

In the first part of the lesson, I learnt that Methodology cover many concepts  (Technology, strategies, parents meetings, skills, grouping, training, text books, etc)  as an explanation for the way a given teacher goes about his/her teaching, which contribute to improve the teacher pedagogical practices. In the second part of the lesson, I can understand that there are important elements that we have to consider in teaching time of a Second Language because these can help us as teachers to do an effective presentation of our lessons and to achieve by this way to cause positive students’ effects

The three concepts to an effective presentation of a lesson are: Attention, Perception and connection.

According to the last Methodology class

I choosen the second presentation called: "Learning a dialogue", in relation to that, I think this doesn't involve the three important elements of an effective presentation, because the students just repeat without a mental effort, and this is an important goal to achieve by the teacher.
