Thidarat Mutchachan’micro teaching

          Firstly, she started the lesson by greeting students and talked to the students about the content of this lesson then, she taught vocabulary about direction by let students played question ball game. For example, Why the direction is very important for you? and Did you have some knowledge about how to tell the direction? After that, She shown the VDO about direction to the student and asked the questions. Can you remember vocabulary about direction from this VDO?  Next, she gave sheet no.1, 2 and gave task no.1, 2 to the students and let them work in pairs. After students finished to do task 1 and 2, teacher and students were checked the answers together. Moreover, she told students to divide into group to study the map about Nakon Si Thammarat province and presented it in front of the class. In the end of the lesson, she taught grammar how to asking and giving direction sentences.
          Let’s talk about her Instructional Medias, she prepared power point, VDO about asking for direction, Map of Nakon Si Thammarat province, sheet no 1, 2 and Task no 1, 2, and 3She used appropriate authentic materials that is, Map of Nakon Si Thammarat province. It was very interesting. The skills that she wanted to focus for this lesson were listening and speaking.
          My suggestions, she should speak some words more clearly. She has to walk around classroom and try to observe students in class. Last, she should use the classroom language to checking the students understand before doing any tasks.


Nunthiya’s micro teaching


                From Nunthiya’s micro teaching, I would like to reflect her teaching to develop and adopt in my teaching. The micro teaching is related to Tourism and the Environment in lesson: “The beaches are disappearing”. The time required in this lesson is an hour per period. I found that his micro teaching is full of useful techniques and materials; however, there is something that needs to be developed. Lesson plan “The beaches are disappearing” consists of aim, objectives, standards, evaluation, lesson plan outline, and rubric. In lesson plan outline consists of pre-task (15 minutes), task-cycle (30 minutes), and language focus (15 minutes). Here are some reflections of her micro-teaching.
                 The lesson name is“The beaches are disappearing” Nunthiya has set the learning standard as the following; 1.1(4): Answer questions from listening to and reading sentences, dialogues and 1.2 (5): Speak and write to describe their own feelings and opinions about various matters, activities, experiences and news/incidents, as well as provide justifications appropriately. Terminal objectives: Students will be able to listen to the story and the conversation about the beach in Thailand. Moreover, she has set the enabling objective as follows: Students will be able to listen and answer questions from the story and the conversation about the beach in Thailand and student will be able to speak and write to describe their own feelings and opinions about the beach using expressing obligation. In the teaching steps, she introduces students about the new vocabulary, and then she lets students match the picture with the correct words. I think that it is a great idea to teach students the vocabulary by game. Moreover, her classroom language is quite good. Nevertheless, there are some mistakes that she can do it better if she improves it. The recording of the conversation relating to the lesson “The beaches are disappearing” represents of her enthusiasm in teacher, but she can do it better, if she native speakers in her audio recording.

                  In conclusion “The beaches are disappearing” is one of good lessons to teach English with public mind, if teacher designs the goal and the content appropriately.  In addition, Nunthiya s’ teaching materials are very interesting, but in some activities need to be to developed to be the better ones. However, “The beaches are disappearing” is the lesson that enhances students to think the ways to take care the world and public mind to save the environment and help the others. At the end of lesson students can get both knowledge and morality. 

Rawitporn Malasan’s micro teaching

Rawitporn Malasan’s micro teaching
          The lesson that she has taught about Eco in my classroom    . She started the lesson by greeting students and asked the students to think about the key words in my classroom such as turn off the light, saving etc. Next, she gave sheet no.1 to students and lets them work. After that, Teacher and students were checked the correct answers together. Then, Teacher told students opened sheet no.2. It was about the conversation “Turn down the TV!” and teacher shown power point. Teacher divided students into 4 groups to practice the conversation by reading aloud. After finished practicing the conversation, teacher wanted 2 volunteer to do role play about the conversation (Turn down the TV!) in front of the class. Moreover, she gave example sentences about Eco in my classroom such as please close the door, please turn off the light, please turn off the TV, Turn off the fan, please take stairs up one floor etc.
          Let’s see her Instructional Medias, she prepared a beautiful power point, VDO about Eco classroom, the conversation about “Turn down the TV!” The skills that she wanted to focus for this lesson were listening and speaking.
          My suggestions, she should speak more clearly. She has to use eyes contact with her students. And she has to improve her rubrics.

                               Ornpatthra Promchan's micro teaching test
                   She taught about warning. She started with situation. There are pictures and sentences for gave students guess what we are learn today. Next step, she gave students worksheet and opened conversation while they listen they can do in the same time.
                    She checks the correctness and gave students read conversation after she told the answers. Next, she taught the vocabulary by opened sound for students practice like foreigner by she let students repeat after sound. After that, she divided students into five groups for present the conversation about warning from given pictures. When students ready they go to present in the front of class.
                   In my opinion, she chose the many materials for her lesson but she did not walk around a classroom. It made students seldom interested. Her picture cards were too small and her command sometimes did not clear.

Thidawan Sawekwang's micro teaching test

                                        Thidawan  Sawekwang 
                   She taught about ‘cleaning my house’. She started with show the pictures about rooms in house and asks students what we are going to learn today. After that, she shows the vocabulary for lesson and gave students repeat after sound for pronounce like the foreigner.
                    When started to the lesson she asked student about their house such as rooms at house and the activity that students did in their house. She opened conversation to students but she did not give a worksheet at first but she gave after students listened at twice times.
She divided students into five groups and gave a sentence. When students in each group read sentence they have to make conversation about situation given and present with role play.

                   In my opinion, her taught is good because she wants students to think and practice by listening and speaking skills. She taught especial contents about cleaning house.

Phichaya Khunchamnaan's micro teaching test

                                       
                   He started with the video about acid rain for ask students what we are going to learn. Those made students think by themselves.
Teacher review the vocabulary by having students to play game for made students have fun and learn in the same time.
                   Students can find your partner and show the picture card in front of class. Then, teacher taught the vocabulary by show the meaning in Thai and gave students repeat after him. That is all of vocabulary about acid rain. In addition, teacher divided student in group to rearrange the sentences and use them to explain the cycle of acid rain. There was structure of lesson; teacher used ‘will’ by subject+will+v1 for class today.
                   In my opinion, he had many activities to improve his students and he opened the video for students’ interest. I think game can help students remember and fun more than teacher gave especial contents. But if he did not awestruck he will do better than his past.

การเรียนการสอนรายหลักสูตรและการจัดการเรียนรู้

การเรียนการสอนรายหลักสูตรและการจัดการเรียนรู้
            หลักสูตรและการจัดการเรียนรู้ถือเป็นวิทยาการที่สำคัญอย่างหนึ่งในวงการศึกษา หลักสูตรที่มีการใช้ในปัจจุบันนั้นล้วนแล้วแต่ได้รับการพัฒนาจากยุคหนึ่งมาสู่อีกยุคหนึ่งแล้วทั้งสิ้น เพื่อให้เกิดการพัฒนาในทุกๆด้าน วัตถุประสงค์ เป้าหมาย  การจัดการเรียนการสอน  ตัวชี้วัด และการวัดและประเมินผลผล เป็นต้น  ซึ่งทุกอย่างที่เกิดจากการพัฒนาหลักสูตรและการจัดการเรียนรู้นั้นจะทำให้เกิดประสิทธิภาพ และประสิทธิผลทางการศึกษา กล่าวคือผลสัมฤทธิ์ทางการศึกษาของนักเรียนดีขึ้นจากการเรียนตามหลักสูตรและการจัดการเรียนรู้ ดังนั้นนักศึกษาที่เรียนสายการสอนจึงต้องได้รับการสอนวิชาหลักสูตรและการจัดการเรียนรู้ตามที่คณะกำหนดเพื่อเป็นพื้นฐานของการเป็นครูผู้สอนอย่างมืออาชีพในอนาคต
         จากการเรียนวิชาหลักสูตรและการจัดการเรียนรู้กลุ่มสาระภาษาอังกฤษ ที่มุ่งเน้นให้นักศึกษามีทักษะในการนำหลักสูตรสู่การจัดการเรียนการสอนในห้องเรียนได้อย่างมีคุณภาพ ตามสาระและมาตรฐานนั้น หมายความว่าในการเขียนแผนการเรียนการสอน ครูผู้สอนจะต้องศึกษาหลักสูตรอย่างชัดเจนเพื่อที่จะนำไปสู่แผนการสอน สาระและตัวชี้วัดในหลักสูตรจะช่วยให้ครูผู้สอน สอนได้ตรงตามวัตุประสงค์และหาเครื่องมือในการวัดและประเมินได้ตามตัวชี้วัดที่ต้องการสอนในแต่ละสาระ และมาตรฐาน
         ในหลักสูตรแกนกลางการศึกษาขั้นพื้นฐานพุทธศักราช ๒๔๔๑ ได้ระบุสาระ และมาตรฐานสำหรับการเรียนการสอนวิชาภาษาอังกฤษไว้ทั้งสิ้น 4 สาระ 4Cs นั้นคือ 1. Language for Communication, 2. Language for Culture, 3.Language and Relationship with Other Content, 4. Language and Relationship with Community and the World  ซึ่งในแต่ละสาระจะมีมาตรฐานและตัวชี้วัดในแต่ระดับชั้นอย่างชัดเจน ซึ่งในหลักสูตรแกนกลางสำหรับการเรียนภาษาอังกฤษจะคลอบคลุมทุกทักษะ ฟัง พูด อ่าน เขียน เพื่อให้นักเรียนได้เกิดพัฒนาการตามตัวชี้วัดในระดับชั้นเรียนที่ระบุไว้อย่างชัดเจน ทำให้ครูผู้สอนสามารถออกแบแผนการเรียนรู้และการผนวกวิธีการสอนต่างๆได้อย่างมีประสิทธิภาพตามหลักสูตร
        วิธีการสอนภาษาอังกฤษได้มีการพัฒนา ประยุกต์ และบูรณการ แนวคิด(Approach) และทฤษฏี (Theory) ต่างๆ เพื่อให้เหมาะสมกับนักเรียนที่มีบริบทที่แตกต่างกันออกไป ทั้ง  ESL  (English as a Second Language) และ  EFL (English as a Foreign Language) ซึ่งแต่ละวิธีการก็จะมีลักษณะเด่น และจุดเน้นแตกต่างกันกัน เช่น The Grammar Translation Method , The Direct Method, The Audio Lingual Method, The Silent Way, Community Language Learning, Total Physical Response , Content – based  , Task – based
          ในการสอนภาษาอังกฤษในประเทศไทยในปัจจุบัน วิธีที่ได้รับความนิยมนำมาประยุกต์ใช้ในการเรียนการสอนภาษาอังกฤษคือ Task – based  ซึ่งจะพัฒนาความสามารถทางภาษาของนักเรียนผ่านภาระงาน และกิจกรรมในชั้นเรียน ปัจจุบันจะมุ่งเน้นให้นักเรียนสามารถสื่อสารในชีวิตประจำวันได้ ซึ่งจะแตกต่างกับการสอนภาษาอังกฤษในอดีตที่ครูผู้สอนจะเน้นให้นักเรียนเรียนไวยากรณ์เพื่อเพียงแค่สอบผ่านมากกว่าการสนทนา ดังนั้นการนำกิจกรรมที่ที่เน้นทักษะการสื่อสารมาใช้ในชั้นถือเป็นสิ่งที่กระตุ้นให้นักเรียนเกิดการเรียนรู้ เช่น  การอภิปรายกลุ่ม   สถานการณ์สมมติ  Chain Drill  และ  Information Gap เป็นต้น  เมื่อครูผู้สอนมีความรู้เรื่องวิธีการสอนและการวิเคราะห์หลักสูตรแล้วก็จะทำให้ครูผู้สอนสามารถที่จะออกแบบการเรียนการสอนในชั้นเรียนได้อย่างมีประสิทธิภาพ
          การนำความรู้และประสบการณ์ที่ได้จากการเรียนในรายวิชาหลักสูตรและการจัดการเรียนรู้กลุ่มสาระการเรียนรู้ภาษาอังกฤษไปใช้ในการจัดการเรียนการสอน  ข้าพเจ้าเห็นว่าสิ่งที่ได้เรียนรู้เป็นประโยชน์แก่ตนอย่างยิ่ง เพราะก่อนหน้านี้ไม่เคยทราบถึงกระบวนการออกแบบแผนการเรียนรู้มาก่อน ว่ามีกระบวนการอย่างไร ส่วนวิธีการสอนและแนวคิดที่ควรยึดเป็นหลักในการสอนภาษาอังกฤษจะเป็นแนวทางที่ดีในการสอนภาษาอังกฤษเพื่อให้สามารถจัดกิจกรรมการสอนที่มีประสิทธิภาได้ นอกจากนี้ความรู้เกี่ยวกับหลักสูตรและการจัดการเรียนรู้นี้ก็จะเป็นพื้นฐานแก่ข้าพเจ้าในการศึกต่อในระดับที่สูงขึ้น   สุดท้ายนี้ข้าพเจ้าต้องขอขอบพระคุณ  อาจารย์อนิรุธ ชุมสวัสดิ์ เป็นอย่างยิ่งในการให้คำแนะนำด้านการเรียนเสมอมา






Thanaporn Chaipikun's micro teaching test

After that, students were taught new vocabulary about global warming . In the screen , she showed the vocab , word class , and the definition of the word.

Students seemed very excited with this activity because they could walk around and the class seemed active and movement. Before finishing the lesson , teacher summarized the contents and said goodbye.

         Comments:  Her authentic materials are very good because they can call students' attention but the thing that she should improve is her classroom language . She seems like less self - confident. If she can improve her language . I thing she will do better next time.

           Comments:  The overall teaching is quite good but something should be developed. First thing I would like her to change the way in teaching language focus because it seems boring. And, students will not pay attention on it as possible. The next one , the handout and the exercise she provided should be decorated more pictures and color in order to capture students' interest. furthermore, i would like to suggest that she should put more activities to practice speaking such as group discussion  or information gap.

Reflect 11 : How to question

                                                          How to question         
             In the perfect classroom management, questioning is considered as the effective approach to capture students' attention and stimulate students to express their needs and ideas.Moreover, to question can help teachers assess students' learning in the class.A teacher asks the class a question, several students raise their hands, the teacher selects one of those with a hand raised, the student gives a response, the teacher evaluates the student's response, and the cycle begins again. Education researchers call it the standard classroom transaction model  ( Dylan Wiliam ) .   Now I will talk to the different three level of questioning , which each level can reflect to the ability of the answer - er . They are  Yes - No question ,   Wh - question  and  Why, How question.

            For young students, teacher actually asks easy question to the students in order to evaluate whether they understand or not in what teacher has taught. It is Yes - No question. They said that Yes - No question is  categorized as the basic level question because the answering person just only says yes or no. He or she doesn't express their  own idea which will represent to their thinking ability. However, teacher should not ask yes- no question too frequently because it doesn't not help students practice both speaking and thinking.

           The higher one are Wh - question which help students practice to express their ideas ,but it is regarded as the median level of question. They just only inform some  specific details that teacher asking for. For example, where are your suitcase , who is your best friend in the class ,or which  do you want to eat. Wh words , such as what , where , when and which , are the word for median questioning level.

           The highest level of questioning is Why and How question which encourage students to think and express their own ideas. In this case of questing,  we want students to develop their thinking system and try to transfer their opinions to the others. In the real classroom, teachers should have to encourage students learning by taking into practice this kind of questioning in doing classroom activities.

         however, what every teacher should do in the class is to enhance students learning as well as possible by finding new technique in teaching and improve it all the time.

Reflect 10 : The activities from The U.S Embassy


                                                   The activities from The U.S Embassy  22 / 8/ 2014

                       In the morning at American Corner , teacher told us that American Embassy would come to visit us that day. When the visitors arrived, Ajarn Anirut introduced us who are they.Three people, I haven't caught their names, came and provided us an opportunity to play game so as to practice English skills; speaking , listening, and reading. Afterward, students were divided into three groups and were ready to play game they prepared. All group were supposed to play every stations so we had to do rally walk for every station. They are listening game, speaking game ,and reading game.

                      For my group , we started at the first activity which was listening game. The administrator said that this station aimed to practice us how to listening with three rules in order to listen more effective. He would read us the story three time with different short story. Then , we had to tell what was it about. The first time we had to close your eyes when listening,second, do not translate the hard words ,and the last always repeat the unfamiliar word to remember. Activity 2 is telling story from pictures of dices .On the face - sides of dices will have pictures.You must throw the dice and make a story by including the vocabulary of the picture from the dice.In harder way , 2 or 3 dices were thrown and you have to make the narrative story by putting all words into the story you make.Activity 3 is reading skill .In big group , we have to match the headlines and the details of the news together. In small group , we will be given a news and have to answer these question  ; what ; where , when , why , how.

                      In conclusion , I think the activities they provided are very fun and interesting. All fellow students seem very happy with the games and we can take those  to apply with the classroom we are going to do when going for internship. They will be very useful game for communication skills which we can stimulate students practice English skills with fun.

Reflect 9 : How to create lesson plan

                                                    How to create lesson plan

                     Lesson plans which is used to teach students are divided into different levels , units and subjects in order to be a guideline for teacher's teaching. Teacher has to run the classroom activities by planing the sequences in teaching . The good lesson plan must consist of the main 3 parts  , pre - task  , task circle and language focus .Moreover, in each part will explain the activities  , materials and the assessment clearly. How to create lesson plan depends on the the curriculum , standard and indicator  that teacher must focus on in writing lesson plans.

                       Before designing the lesson plan, teacher must study curriculum and its standard .Educational curriculum is content and amount of experience prepared for learners in each level to learn. It is regarded as an important mechanic for country education so as to gain the population with goodness, ethic and potential that they can compete and corporate with foreign labor effectively. The steps in designing lesson plan should follow these steps to make the productive lesson plan. First , teacher has to investigate the standard and study each indicator . Indicator is very important for classroom activities . Teacher realize that what is the main purpose and teacher has to create the activity to teach student to meet with its indicators. The materials are also important because it will help students learn easier and remember longer. The authentic materials must be used because they might encounter in the real situations .Authentic materials  or contextualized , real - life materials are those that a student encounters in everyday life but that weren't created for educational purposes (Alejandro G.
