What
should the Practitioner have when Practicing Micro Teaching Class?
When
a student who learns about how to become a good teacher practices teaching
their junior of the same faculty, he/she should have some competences that are
very important. Those competences can be evaluated by considering some aspects
such as opening the class, the main activity, the using of media, the use of language,
and so on.
For
opening the class, the practitioner should do apperception. It means that the
teacher should review the last meeting materials. This aspect is not really
important if it is the first time the practitioner gets practice. Besides,
giving some information of the competences goal of the topic is important so
that the students know why they should learn the topic. Then the practitioner
should give motivations to the students so that the students will not boring in
the class. The very good opening will motivate their spirit on learning
process.
In
the main activity, the practitioner should show his/her competence by mastering
the material. This aspect can be shown by explain the material well or
answering the students’ question scientifically. Connecting the material to the
reality and/or to another science will interest the students’ attention. The
use of media will help either the practitioner or the students to understand
the material. The media used must be interest, effective, and efficient. Then
the practitioner should take care to the language that is used. Considering the
students may come from different speech community, the practitioner must use
common language, it means that the language used can be understood by the
students.
So,
those are some aspects that the practitioner should have in practicing the
micro teaching class.
