Language Acquisition Reflection Week 8

What I have learnt was social interactionism. In this method,

students are active learners and they are seen as a whole person.
Vygotsky emphasizes the importance of interaction between people.
As culture can be transmitted by language. He sees language holistic,
he rejects that it can be broken down into small pieces. Reuven
Feuerstein thinks that every human being has potential to learn
something through suitable learning strategies which is learning how
to learn. Vygotsky supports his thoughts theoretically. However
Feuerstein emphasizes the practical needs. He exemplifies
implications for teaching and learning.

I suppose I need to focus much more on my lesson. Because I’m

learning too many things that will useful to me in my teaching. I’m
learning many new things, I’m going to feel as a teacher day by day.

I believe I may use in this information my teaching because

learning occurs in social environment. Without practicing, they will
not learn permanently. Therefore, in my classes I’ll use many group
work activities as make them interact with each other. I’ll give much
more time to speak during the lessons. And I’ll think them all as
whole person and as fully as possible I’ll help them to improve
themselves providing them appropriate strategies.
