UNIT B9: TEACHING PRACTICE AND EVALUATION
ACTIVITY B9.1: TEACHING PRACTICE
In activity B8.2 you made plans for two teaching sessions. With the help of your tutor choose one of these.
Use this plan to teach the session either to your fellow students or to the students at St. Dominic’s
EVALUATION
Write a formal evaluation of the session you have just taught.
The evaluation sheet below may help you to do this. Use the headings given. The notes after the headings are just to guide you.
OBSERVATION
Watch a session taught by one of the St. Dominic’s staff.
Evaluate the session, using the same evaluation sheet.
You may like to discuss the session with the teacher afterwards, but do not be critical – let the teacher say what he thinks. Remember, you are not here to judge the St. Dominic’s staff!
