Model of Instructions

By

Tri Okta Ervina

Before doing school experience, we did micro teaching in the last Thursday. It was about model of instructions that we have learnt before. Actually my group has presented our micro teaching in the two last Thursday. So, we enjoyed to pay attention to the groups which have been presenting their micro teaching without feeling worry and nervous.

The rest of the groups which have not been presenting the micro teaching should guess what model of instructions that the group was presenting. Did the group use direct instruction, lecture discussion, guided discovery or group interaction? Maybe the group used all the model of instructions in one time. It could be used together in the time when we were teaching.

All the groups which have presented in last Thursday were very good. They performed in the team teaching. It might be our group (I mean the first group) gave them reflection about the rule of micro teaching itself which was expected by Miss Ine. Although our group was messy in the presentation but we were proud of our group, because we could be the next group reflection. They would not missed understanding about the instruction again.

Sometimes, the group which have been presenting asked to us to come forward to pretend as their students. We were really happy because we were in the fun learning. But, it also could be their weakness because if the students are naughty, they will be little bit hard to manage their students. It happened in micro teaching last Thursday, in Andik’s group exactly. They were using game but the students did not cooperative well with the teacher and rule of the game.

Our micro teaching last Thursday gave us so many advantages because next week we have to do school experience. It can be our guidance when we are to be teacher assistance. I hope our mistakes that we have done in the micro teaching will not happen in the real class. Amien.
