These for two different way of teaching grammar, that is implicit and explicit.]]> 2022-10-23 14:55:33 UTC https://padlet.com/mehmetcapraz/v0u0pqj4aix0jfz1/wish/2352341241 mehmetcapraz https://padlet.com/mehmetcapraz/v0u0pqj4aix0jfz1/wish/2352344420 We have analyzed the activities in our coursebooks in order to see whether they are:
-Controlled, (Yes/No- True/False)
-Guided,  (Complete a semi-completed paragraph)
and,
-Freer ones. (Write about your past experiences)

BUT, it is essential to keep in mind that we we should focus on SPEAKING when categorizing.]]> 2022-10-23 15:00:00 UTC https://padlet.com/mehmetcapraz/v0u0pqj4aix0jfz1/wish/2352344420 mehmetcapraz https://padlet.com/mehmetcapraz/v0u0pqj4aix0jfz1/wish/2352446058 We differentiated and digitalized the tasks given on page 40-41. 
(We added a "put in order" task for using the same pictures for the listening task for the sake of supporting low achievers of the group and digitalized this via Cram)
For the schools which do not have an internet connection, we recommend Paper Slide. ]]> 2022-10-23 17:10:33 UTC https://padlet.com/mehmetcapraz/v0u0pqj4aix0jfz1/wish/2352446058 mehmetcapraz https://padlet.com/mehmetcapraz/v0u0pqj4aix0jfz1/wish/2352448049 We developed a grammar session plan taking the text and lead in into consideration. This is coveyed in an implicit way. ]]> 2022-10-23 17:12:50 UTC https://padlet.com/mehmetcapraz/v0u0pqj4aix0jfz1/wish/2352448049 mehmetcapraz https://padlet.com/mehmetcapraz/v0u0pqj4aix0jfz1/wish/2352449952 During this session we learned about Concep Checking Questions.
These questions should be:
-Closed
-Short
-Simple

-stages in teaching vocabulary
-how to present vocabulary
-concept questions,
-practice teaching 3 vocabulary
-what we need to teach to really teach a word,
-review websites for vocabulary development.

We have vitnessed a absolute perfect example of teaching vocabulary extract by Helen.

She started with showing some pictures demonstrating health problems, and modelled saying headache.
She showed another one and said cough....this went on in tis way till she ended up with the pictures.
Then, she put the pictures aside and acted out the health problem and made us tell the name of the illness.  This also continued till the last ilness. 
She modelled the pronunciation of some words that we had problem in articulating. Then agagin, as a repetition, she showed the pictures and sticked on the board one by one.
She introduced "What is wrong?" and and acted out the ilness.
After that, she assigned some students to stick the name of the ilness under the picture on the board.

Helen handed out small pieces of paper on which just a word written  and wanted us to find our partner whose word is matchin with ours. So, we had collocations aat the end.
Then, we went on  with the task on page 43-44. 

Today I have also learned "register" which means formal or informal.
We ended up with preparing CCQ .]]> 2022-10-23 17:33:21 UTC https://padlet.com/mehmetcapraz/v0u0pqj4aix0jfz1/wish/2352465001 mehmetcapraz https://padlet.com/mehmetcapraz/v0u0pqj4aix0jfz1/wish/2358014151 We started with a warm up activity which is very cachy for all of us. Helen wanted us to write one adjective that best describes our feeling about assessment. We all came up with no positive one at the end.

We concluded that:
 -we make assessment to demonstrate learning achievemens at points in time.
-to get and give feedback.
-to empower students to seld regulate their learning and critically evaluate their performance.

As for the formative assessment tools, we learned :
-multiple choice cards,
-traffic lights,
-success criteria,

We learned that we should give feedback in the areas of:
-progress and effort,
-language skills,
-ideas and content,
attitude and behavior

But! The focus should be encouraging, giving a grade, informing, requesting, reminding, recommendingg or praising.]]> 2022-10-26 21:44:40 UTC https://padlet.com/mehmetcapraz/v0u0pqj4aix0jfz1/wish/2358022690 mehmetcapraz https://padlet.com/mehmetcapraz/v0u0pqj4aix0jfz1/wish/2358024613 In this session, we learned how to assess speaking appropriately. The keys to achieve this:
-encourage students to speak more,
-it can be fun,
-positive impact in class.]]> 2022-10-26 21:47:47 UTC https://padlet.com/mehmetcapraz/v0u0pqj4aix0jfz1/wish/2358024613 mehmetcapraz https://padlet.com/mehmetcapraz/v0u0pqj4aix0jfz1/wish/2358034365 Yes, This was a great opportunity to share somewhat the "recap" of previous sessions; however, in the practice, your perfect plan can deviate.
Though I know all the key points to add in my presentation, in the flow I could not use them  properly. 
Should I review the presentation from the beginning:
The third part was mine, but my team mate, by mistake,  made the introduction part  which was supposed to be the most interesting part of the task. I had planned a much more effective introduction. 
For the feedbacks, I should have applied CCQs, but I totally forgot them.
Another fault was about the idea of digitalization: Althoug we had no word about this in or plan, I thougt that I needed to include them. 
Overall, I realized the problems in the practice and I will eliminate them for the future PDCs.
