Methodology I: Classroom interaction
Dr. Harvey Silver, founder of The Thoughtful Classroom, will guide you through four learning sessions that will help you develop more effective questioning practices for your classroom.
TASK: (taken from Ur, P. A Course in Language Teaching)
Observe one or two lessons. After the obsevation, discuss or reflect on the following questions:
l. Was there one particular type of interaction that seemed to predominate?
2. Did teacher activity predominate? Or student activity? Or was the interaction more or less balanced?
3. How appropriate did you think the chosen interaction patterns were for the teaching objectives in the different activities?
