Today was a follow up from yesterday’s goings on. Here’s what shook down:
Me In A Bag Speech Analysis Task
I reviewed the expectations for the assignment and reminded you of the Monday, 4 October 2010 due date.
Ropes Course Debrief
I asked you to give me the following information:
- List of activities you engaged in
- Your favourite ropes course activity and why
- A rating of the Ropes Course experience from 1 to 11 and your reasoning
- A completion of this sentence stem… “I used to think… but NOW I think… because…”
(I’ve left your feedback slips at home but I’ll insert it into this post when I’ve put it together. -LH)
Professional Demeanour on Practicum
I asked you to consider the question “What will professionalism look like in a school setting?” and to create a role play around one professional behaviour. The role play had to give a no example and a yes example. After developing criteria for an effecitve role play, you took time to plan, rehearse and present. The role plays were enlightening and humourous.
Of course, we can’t fully prepare you for the practicum through classroom work on campus. You need to be in the schools and experience it for yourselves. There is no “How To Do It” video for teaching like there is for these the skills covered in this clip:
