Announcements Introductions Homework to share? We are continuing the series, starting November For information, see:

What is Reflective Teaching? Three attitudes are necessary for us to become reflective teachers: 1. Open-mindedness. 2. Responsibility. 3. Wholeheartedness. (J. Dewey, A Handbook for Reflective Teaching)

What is Reflective Teaching? Exploring underlying beliefs. Self-observation, evaluation. Process of observing and collecting information: -- our own behaviors -- those of our learners.

What is Reflective Teaching? A means to institute meaningful changes and improvements in our teaching. A beneficial form of professional development.

Purposes / Benefits To expand our understanding of the teaching/learning process. To enlarge our repertoire of options as language teachers. To enhance learning opportunities for our students.

Activity #1 Small Group Task, Analysis Think about a lesson you have recently taught. Describe a part of a lesson that went well and why this was so. Describe a part of a lesson that didn’t go well. What might you do differently to make that part go better?

Tools Lesson notes. Teacher diary. Peer observation. Video or audio class recordings. Student feedback. Professional portfolio

Teacher Diaries Suggestions (Adapted from: BBC/British Council. (2004). Think, Writing a Teaching Diary.) Lesson objectives: Did the students understand what we did and why we did it? Was it something all learners could do? challenged the faster learners? Materials and activities: Appropriate to our goals? Appeal to the students?

Teacher Diaries Suggestions, continued: Learners: Were they on task? If not, when and why? Which parts engaged them most? Least? How much English did they use? Management: How was the pacing and timing? What were the interaction formats (groups, etc)? Did they work? Were my directions clear? Overall: If I teach the lesson again, what will I do differently?

Activity #2 Small Group Task, Brainstorm It’s the middle of a course.You observe that many of the students don’t seem to be interested in the course. How could you find out what some of the problems might be?

Student Feedback Examples Five-minute papers. Smiley Faces for younger learners. Stop, Start, Continue. Other?

Analyzing Your Data / Evidence Think. Talk / Ask. Read.

Activity #3 Three-minute Papers Write: What is the one thing you are most likely to remember from today’s session? Explain why you will remember it, and what its relevance is to your teaching situation. Share your response with your group.

Conclusion What are you (and the learners) doing? Why are you doing it? How effective is it? How are the students responding? How can you do it better?
