Teaching, Teaching and Teaching

PETA e-reflection

Last Tuesday was my third meeting of PETA.   The meeting discussed about teaching models. That was my favorite part, group discussion. My PETA lecturer, Ms. Ine divided us into seven groups. Then she gave some reading material to us. She broke down us to gather with expert group in the same reading material. These were teaching models.

First is direct instruction models. This is teaching model with teacher as model or center in learning process. The key word are transfer and automaticity. Transfer means students expect to apply their knowledge from one lesson to other lesson. Automaticity means students are ready to answer questions aotomaticaly. This teaching model also helps students to learning by themselves from homework.

Second is lecture- discussion model.  This can be also call interactive learning. The reason is because teacher and students ask questions each other. By this teaching model students and teacher are in the ideal learning atmosphere.

Third is guide- discovery teaching model. Teatcher role is as facilitator not only as teacher or educator. Teachers give time to student to discuss and ask. I think this will be good for classroom activities.

Last is group interaction model.  Not only techers as center but also students as center of learning process. Teachers really develop students ability..

So, these are my relfection for this week. Hopefully next week will be more fun and “heavy” than this week.
