The three Ps Presentation – teacher gives information - input Practice – students work on the information through exercises - uptake Production – students use what they have learned - consolidation
Components 1. INPUT Teacher provides new knowledge, information or instructions Examples: an explanation, a demonstration 2. Input follow-up: Activity workshop or seminar - uptake Teacher sets guided or controlled exercises Examples: writing a definition, doing/reporting anexperiment, a field trip. [3. Monitoring Teacher comments on or corrects the exercises.] 4. Application Teacher sets open tasks Examples: essay, project, research. [5. Feedback Teacher comments on the work and offers encouragement.]

Transcripts TRANSCRIPT 1 - ORAL I, my field is actually linguistics, and that’s where I’ve come from, from training English teachers. So maybe that’s why I’ve been more aware of this, discourse analysis, than many other people would be. But, you see that I am taping my lecture now, or my talk. Now, I want to tape it, on an audio tape, not a video. I’m sorry, I asked Chris but you weren’t able to organise videos. I wanted this tape because I’ll give it to my secretary and she’ll type it out because I want to produce a paper on this. But you know as well as I do I’m not going to just be able to use what I’ve been saying. The discourse is wrong. That is not going to be a written article, it is different discourse.
Written version My field is actually linguistics and the training of English teachers. That is where my viewpoints come. This may be the reason why I have become more aware of the discourse features of explanatory talk than other people are. When you look at a transcript of a taped lecture now, whether on an audio tape or a video, and you see it on a paper like the paragraph above, you know as well as I do that this is not appropriate to be read, even though it does represent what I’ve been saying. But the discourse is wrong. That is not going to be a written article, it is different discourse. So, if I want to write out my talk, I have to change it to something like this written version.
Teacher talk Narrative – non-interactive • Shaping the knowledge - information is organized in a specific way ie, related to a specific set of learners • -select and arrange the content so it is graded just • - link the subject to the specific objectives of the course • - link to prior knowledge • - correct expected misunderstandings • - rephrase and repeat key points • - expand on difficult issues • - summarise • - plug gaps • - make links to current events • - refer to recent advances in field
Teacher talkNarrative – non-interactive • B. Animate and motivate • give more examples • use animations or films • Teacher’s personality: • enthusiasm • facial expressions • voice • manner of speaking • explanatorypower • rapport • between teacher and students • between students and institution
Teacher talk – lecturingNarrative – non-interactive “the overwhelming weight of university opinion is that lectures have an essential function, particularly for opening up a subject for students who are not in a position to do it for themselves by unassisted reading, and also for giving more detailed information where suitable text-books are lacking. Lectures have certain advantages over discussion periods in that continuous exposition, free from interruptions, can be better prepared and more profound than teaching in a discussion period, can cover more ground, and can enable an inspiring teacher to influence more students. Nias, J. Ed. (1993) The Human Nature of Learning; Selections from the Work of M.L.J. Abercrombie Society for Research into Higher Education, Open University Press p. 76

Presentation choice Narrative: interactive / non-interactive High tech synchronous two-way dialogue: Videoconferencing; Chat Lower tech asynchronous one-way teacher talk: video [WEB page: +/- text +/- Chat ]
Interactive Presentations 1. Videoconferencing synchronous Q-A between teacher and students Can be very disorienting and hard to control 2. Videostreaming on the WEB timetabled periods for synchronous Q-A either by voice or CHAT Can be very disorienting and hard to control timetabled periods for asynchronous Q-A by email or web board discussion Not disorienting and easy to control 3. Video on CD or on cassettes like this film, with timetabled periods for synchronous Q-A either by voice or CHAT Can be very disorienting and hard to control timetabled periods for asynchronous Q-A by email or weboard discussion Not disorienting and easy tocontrol
