I sent the learning activity lesson plan, lecture PPT and
survey form to the teacher. After she read through the lesson plan, she gave me
her advice and let me do some modifications. First, I should specify that the
Chinese New Year web site will be developed in English instead of Chinese. Even
though this is a language lesson plan about Chinese, learners are at novice
level and the purpose of this project is aiming at laying the cultural
foundation for language skills learning (such as phrases and sentences) in the
following class. Without specifying the language requirement for this project,
it will confuse the teacher and the students. Second, the teacher suggest me to
create a Chinese New Year web site as a sample. It may be overwhelming for
students who are new to Google Sites to do this project in class. A sample
would be helpful to students to get a general idea what their project will be
like, which lessens their learning anxiety.
She will deliver the lesson soon and we will keep regular
communication about how the lesson is going.
Great progress! I agree with the teacher's suggestions, especially providing a sample for the students to review in order to understand what they are working towards. Keep up the great work!
