VIDEOS SHAPING THE WAY WE TEACH

Video 1 Modul Focus

The first video is about modul focus and that is really important for a teacher because you look differents technics to improve your class how this real situation helping students to improve their language because the topics are related with real situations and that integrate students with their social needs and the students are going to be motivated.

An example of modul focus is when a teacher use a storytelling with kids the teacher can show images that are in accordance with the story and in that way it modul new words to the students but if the teacher want to use modul focus with young people the teacher can use dramatization of real situation and students can improve their skills and they will know how to manage or react in a real situation outside the school.

For all these things I think that modul focus can help a teacher to become a better teacher and if his/her class is bored with modul focus can make the class interesting and the students are going to be motivated.

Video 2 Integrating Skills

As we know all the people have 4 important skills as listening, reading, speaking and writing but with this video you learn how to integrate those skills, remember that each skill reinforces other skills and for that reason is easy to improve various skills in one activity.

You as a teacher can use histories about wars of whatever you want using real language, or you can use social interaction.

With this integrating skills you as a teacher can use with kids and young people. For example you can say to the students to cut a picture of a book about an animal, a building or about what the students create a story and after they pass to the front to say the story and with this technics you improve writing and reading skills with the students and the others students improve their listening skill. Or you as teacher can use projects that are connect with the curriculum and the students memorize that helps their speaking skill and the others students improve their listening skill.

And that help new teachers to improve all the skills of the students and they feel motivated.
