Day 1

10-01-2017

Tuesday,


Today is the first day to study Seminar in English 
Language Teaching Subject. 
Teaching by Ass. Prof. Dr. Usa Noytim. 

In fact, I  doubted about the word "seminar" for many years. What does it mean? and What it is about? When we learn about it we will learn about what? although last semester a teacher said that you should read a lot of  academic journals in this subject but she helped me just a little. 

Until in the real class I understood more because teacher have described about this subject and what would we do in this subject. After that teacher asked about subjects that were academic in English we learned already. 

We thought together with teacher and they were four subjects such as; English Teaching Methodology 1, English Language Assessment and Evaluation, Learning English through Project, and Cultures of Speakers of English. Then teacher divided students in four group to talk about in each subject and present them. 

I was group 2 and we had to talk about  learning, expecting and problems that we found in Cultures of Speakers of English class.

When we presented group work already, teacher assigned work by searching the academic journals to read and discuss them in next time.

And the last, teacher told that this subject is hard and difficult but you don't get discouraged and assigned to write learning reflection in blog AGAIN!

I felt very happy for today. And I thought that I had to be diligent more and have a plan to manage these works.


Thankful!!

Day 12

18 April, 2017 Today I learned about "The end of CLT: a context approach to language teaching by Stephen Bax". CLT is Communicative Language Teaching. CLT focused on communication but not for context. So An approach that argued CLT is Context approach. There were many reasons showed that we don't need CLT such as; In Czech Republic, Holland, and Taiwan, teacher didn't use CLT but their students could speak English very well. Today I enjoyed about the lesson and discussion in the class. I thought I understood this class well. Thank you!!

Day 6

Tuesday Again!!! 14th February, 2017 This morning, class had many activities. They were good. First, teacher let Satit and Maturin told about their experience from exchanged students to training teaching of another countries. They had good experience, although they met some problems like weather or food. For the weather, it was cold but they could stand until the last day. Satit went to Indonesia. He met good friends and they help him in some events. In addition, He met the challenges for teaching mix students from many countries. I thought it was very challenge and interesting too. For Maturin, she met good friends that they were Thai people too. They helped together. In teaching, she didn't have lesson plan but she tried and could pass it. Both them were good and attention in their duty. After that we read the sample classroom. It was about differences of teaching and learning English in the classroom of Malaysia, Mozambique, and China. An English lesson in Malaysia, ...

Day 9

21 March, 2017 Today I learned about the Effect of New Technologies on English by David Crystal.  He talked about the Effect of New Technologies on English such as; CMC (computer mediated communication), 2.0 (twitter), WWW., hypermedia. The new technologies actually enhance the English language,they facilitate new pursuits by developing a new style of the English language.  Twitter is not asking us about ourselves anymore, it is more in third person, therefore asking use what is going on around us.  How the Internet help teaching English?  > Weblogs enhancing EFL students > chatting with friends in real life in English > write diary > make you think in different way English is spread worldwide and most of technology and internet has English as written on various pages. So Internet has many benefits to teach English. Thanks!!
