Practising =Learning?
YEA OR NAY? DURING
ACTIVITIES….
Do not interfere too much.
Do not talk too much.
Do not get in the way of the learning too much.
Make sure you praise and encourage.
Back off. Students can learn a lot by themselves.
A teacher’s job is to create the conditions.
Get them communicating. That is enough.
Whatever you do, do not teach.
IS THIS NOW THE JOB OF A TEACHER? TO
ORGANIZE ACTIVITIES? TO HOPE THAT
SOMEHOW, ALONG THE WAY, LEARNING WILL
MAGICALLY OCCUR – RANDOMLY AND OUT OF
ANYONE’S CONTROL? COULD I DO SOMETHING
MORE TO ENSURE THAT SOMETHING MORE IS
GAINED? TO ENSURE THAT THE POTENTIAL FOR
DEEPER LEARNING IN A TASK IS NOT LOST?

LEARNING-CENTRED TEACHING

(DON’T USE ANY
OF KEY THE 1. Take notes.
WORDS BELOW) 2. Recall.

what is similar what is different.
SOME REFLECTION
QUESTIONS:
Did that game really lead to any learning?
Did checking the ten answers to that exercise lead to any learning?
Does my explaining this grammar lead to any learning?
Is leaving the students alone in groups to discuss this topic for seven minutes leading
to any learning?
WHERE IS THE LEARNING?
HOW CAN I HELP IT TO
HAPPEN MORE?
The essential learning
experience is doing it yourself.
Whatever the learner does, the teacher can help that learner to
notice more, think more, focus more, decide how to do it
differently when they try again, choose more wisely what to do
next time and so on. Receiving and acting on feedback is how
we move forward as humans.
