I like it when our groups are in charge of warm-ups, it gives us ideas on what to do in practicum

2023-12-14 10:18:01 UTC

i got alot out of the ICC lessons, it was introduced in a good way and the lessons within it was great

It has been some good warm ups lately :-)

Like that we are back to doing warm ups

I still miss working in class directly with the texts we read. For example answering quesions about the texts and so on. (We've done this a little bit, bur not as much as last semester).

Etwinning was a bit of a failure. I had a feeling that in many cases it was a few people carrying the whole group. Maybe it could make people more engaged if everyone was forced to take part in the presentation?

I like the whole ICC subject, got a lot out of the lessons, and found them very interesting

Love the parts with stories

I've been very interested in this term, because of the cultural and storytelling aspect.

Learning about teaching culture is very interesting, and reading authentic texts for the various subcultures we've looked at was very good for me.

Etwinning was an interesting idea, and I was looking forward to it, but as we began, it became a nightmare to work with, so in hindsight I didn't really enjoy it that much.

The warmups we make are always fun for me, and they help make the mornings less tiresome. I feel like I want to use all of them in my classroom, even though some are probably very challenging in practice (at least with the kids I have right now)

I've been reading the texts and preparing a lot more, so that's good too!

I would say e-twinning did not go as hoped, however i like the idea of e-twinning and working with other cultures

djofupfm6i — 2023-12-14 10:20:59 UTC

i feel like e-twinning was rushed which is sad, it had great potential imo

I like the Idea of warm ups, but they are also an extra thing we have to worry about besides planning lessons, reading, working and so on.

Reflections.

2023-12-14 10:21:13 UTC

I think growth this semester (considering practicum), has become somewhat stale.. However which new blood and conversations with teacher + more - Im a bit more optimistic.

rp6iwrbdww — 2023-12-14 10:21:37 UTC

It has been very interesting to watch the videos and discuss them afterwards. It also engaged many students. The one about where you come from and belong was very nice.

More of that, please.

I think we are getting better at working fewer people together as a class.

2023-12-14 10:21:38 UTC

Time went so fast I can barely remember what we've studied and done in class.

2023-12-14 10:22:20 UTC

Stories and reading

10454278 — 2023-12-14 10:22:25 UTC

I think lessons are fun and varied, and it's been a joy to make some more lesson plans for actual teaching. The whole section with stories and teaching reading has been very enlightening and I hope to contribute to that once we start teaching.

It's been so long since I've taught in front of students though that it feels like a lot of it is going to waste, just because there's always some sort of problem with the practicum school. Hopefully next semester will be a little easier in that regard. It's shaping up to be at the very least.

eTwinning

2023-12-14 10:22:58 UTC

To be honest I got something out of it, by being able to realize how hard it can be working with people online and not in pressence of each other.

10454278 — 2023-12-14 10:23:38 UTC

as much as etwinning was a fiasco it's nice to know that it's there as a tool, albeit a flawed one

Etwinning presentations be like

This semester (english-wise)

2023-12-14 10:25:01 UTC

I've loved the themes we've worked with this semester! has really put things into perspective, (especially stories and othering) has made itself known in my backhead while reflecting on studying and teaching

i missed the bell today

Adding futher to practicum

2023-12-14 10:29:25 UTC

I'm really dissappointed by the practicumschool reacting so slowly to a teacher being sick, and we've had to follow a substitute teacher with no education... And for us to follow her for 2 months, (being considered as free laborforce - by practicumschool) is absolute bs. Not us learning and in anyregards able to work with the class as there is a lot of intern problems in the class, and the students not wanting to work with us either, which has made it really difficult to either teach or learn anything teachingwise... Although it seems promising now, its way to late...
