2.0 ANALYSIS
As I was analyzing the way I gave out instructions to the students, I could not
help but notice that the major problem was because of my lengthy words which
caused confusion to the students. I thought that I was giving specific instructions
which help them to understand more about the notes and tasks given, but I might be
wrong on that part. One of the options I have at the moment is to improve the way I
construct the instructions to ensure that none of my students lose their interest in
doing the task and start to ignore the lesson as they think that they could not catch
up with the pace.
The following strategies to improve participation in virtual classroom are referred from
Reis (2019):
Use the simplest word for them to understand the instructions.
Indulge the local standards like their culture or daily routine in giving
instructions to help them make the relation.
Do not feel compelled to cover all specific topics in the syllabus. Be specific
on which one topic and not on all topics at once. There will be too many
instructions to fit in an hour classroom.
Encourage discussion by asking questions dealing with “how”, “why”, and
“what if” to help pupils understand the flow of the lesson.
5.0 REFLECTION
In conclusion, there are many areas that I need to improve, especially the way
I give out classroom instructions to the students. My priority is to ensure that they get
the gist of the lesson rather than not get anything at all.
