In PETA class, I watched my friends practice teaching and learning activities in group then guessing what models of instruction they used, it turns out almost all of them use lecturer discussion to teach the students. It makes me guess that when I teach my students I can't leave lecturer discussion models to teach the formula in mathematics. I don't know yet my guessing is right or not, may I can know that in teaching assistant.
There are many interest questions in PETA class that can help me in teaching assistant such as "How to respond a students that fast learner and look like boring in class?" and "How to respond if students ask something that out of topic?" etc. All questions in PETA class are answered by my lecturer and my friends well and wisely then its made me feel that just a little thing I know, I have to learn more as a teacher to handle all possible situations happen in class not only deepen my knowledge about mathematics.
Next week is a teaching assistent, actually I feel worried. There are many scary thing in my mind such as students ask something and I can't asnwer it, or there is event unexpected in class. Maybe the things which can makes me happy are that I am not alone, my friends do the same thing with me and I already learned many thing in campus so this is my time to try it, knowledge or understanding is not enough, I have to practice on the field and I'll know the true condition. I'll do my best. :)
good reflection Na.. hehe you must be convidence dong..
ReplyDeleteapaan sih yang gak bisa dilakuin si Rina, don't be afraid
ingatkah kata2, jangan malu jika kita lebih pintar dari anak didik kita,, karena dengan begitu itu pertanda semakin majunya pendidikan kita.. dari pada mereka gaka tahu dan gak mau bertanya bukan?
agree with imam...
ReplyDeletewe do have more confidence even though our students are smarter than us because we are all learning together for the better...
when you get nervous, you can reflect toward what we've done in our micro teaching. you can add and modify and finally you can apply it in your teaching assistant.
ReplyDeletewell, dont worry na, don be afraid to face the students in teaching assistance. there is a posibillity for us to teach in the same class. if you get nervous, perhaps i will get nervous also. just try to "ngeles" if you can't answer the students' question. haha.
ReplyDeletegood reflection naa :)
ReplyDeleteyou could did well when micro teaching, so I believe you can do well also when teaching assistent,
I think Haryo's solution can help you and me too :P
