The third Reflective Journal

The third meeting of Principle of Effective Teaching and Assessment last Thursday was so challenging. We were given a new material by the lecturer. It was about teacher instruction, group interaction, guided discovery, and lecturer discussion. We were in a group and had discussion about the lesson which was given by the lecturer. After having discussion, we made a gallery walk.

I was very glad in that group because we have made a group by ourselves. We felt so comfort over there and studied together in the gallery walk. But that was no longer, I was so surprised when one of my group member took the lottery. And the result was very amazing. We were so confused and did not know what we were going to do. We thought we were going to do presentation about the lesson plan, but the reality was doing micro teaching about our lesson plan.

We were so lucky because Miss Ine gave us a little time to prepare our performance. Actually we were so difficult to think what we were going to present in the pressured situation. Moreover all the other groups gave the support while insulting. Finally we were ready to present our performance after the time was up. We consisted of five people in a group. One of us to be a teacher and the rest of the group pretended to be the students.

After finishing the role play, we have realized that we were wrong. We should be in the team work, but we missed understanding. So we felt a little disappointed. I hope it could be a reflection for the next group which have not presented yet.
