  2. Fallacy – the real world is outside • How often do we tell the learners –” Wait until you leave school – that’s the real world…” • We need to bring the avenues of life’s realities into the classroom in controlled settings. • The class must reflect the world beyond its domain.

Goal and Objective: Media • Using media in the classroom: lesson plans/worksheets/notes and the internet. • Start with Radio techniques: • Get pupils to do assignments using audio streaming: the cassette, cd or MP3. • Get pupils to produce their own plays using video cams etc. • Get pupils to use projectors in class for speeches.

How Did We Get Here? • Firstly let us view just 1 slide of lesson done on MS PowerPoint…. • What did this do for the learners… • It made them see the teacher in a different light – aware and in touch. • It made them feel part of the high tech world they are exposed to all the time By Abdullah Sujee
