This is how our TEFL graduates feel they have gained from their course, and how they plan to put into action what they learned:
Unit 9 was about lesson planning. As I understand from the material presented, lesson planning is a guide to help teachers present the information. Of course, the level of planning and time needed to plan will have a lot to with the experience of the teacher. I did not particularly find the lesson planning section to be very helpful. It seems as if this material was devised for someone who is creating the material from scratch. I don't anticipate this to be the case at most language centers. Instead, I was hoping to learn how to plan to work within a specified curriculum.In this unit, we have seen the main uses of technology in class. We must remember that technology is a tool to motivate, get students' attention and practice language, not a teacher?s substitute. That?s why during the lesson they highlighted the importance of not showing films «for the sake of it» and that «they must still have some purpose and task».
Although I have found it quite interesting, I must admit I have found the equipment?s mentioned on the unit quite outdated. We hardly ever use cassettes right now, and sources such as the social media are missing there.
