Day6: Quiz & Listening Skills and Strategies



Vocab Quiz 

Forgot to create the answer key after I mixed the question types from two different vocab quiz version from the past.

Added their vocabulary experiences part to get to know more about their learning history
and give fast students something to do...


Listening skills and strategies 

Hope the activities do not  make them so tired.
I am pretty sure there is fatigue .... symptom after the vocab quiz? (it might be different, but )




How am I going to treat Brazilian teachers in my class? 
Started collecting their emails to communicate;

Have some volunteers to share their vocabulary/reading/listening or general English learning strategies! : )

AFTER CLASS

BTs were more cooperative and actively participated. - thanks !

-students' Nervousness about the vocab quiz - could be felt.

-Too much to cover for one semester.
Try hard not to neglect the listening part of the course.... hmm

Situated learning? of Teaching? .....
Sociocultural perspective professional development in EFL and ESL environments: two different learning objectives?

Back in Korea. 
The same feeling that there is a lot to cover;
But I think I did connect the questions to what was covered in classes.

Here. the testis more about out autonomous learners did their assignments and participated in class discussion and activities.
