B. Development-
(85 MINUTES):
Teaching Point 1: Have the Cadets Instruct a 15 Minute Lesson (activity).
OBJECTIVE:
- The objective of this activity is to have the cadets instruct a
15 minute lesson in a peer setting using a lesson plan, an appropriate
method of instruction and an appropriate instructional aid.
RESOURCES:
- Presentation aids (e.g. whiteboard / flip chart / OHP) appropriate
for the classroom / training area, and Instructional Techniques Assessment
Form.
ACTIVITY INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Have the cadets provide a copy of their lesson plan to the assessor.
2. Determine the order in which cadets will instruct their lessons.
3. Have one cadet prepare the classroom / training area for their
lesson.
4. Have one cadet instruct a 15 minute lesson using a written lesson
plan, an appropriate method of instruction and an appropriate instructional
aid (as prepared in EO M309.06 [Plan a Lesson, Section 6]).
5. Assess the cadet's lesson using the Instructional Techniques Assessment
Form.
6. Upon completion of the lesson, provide feedback to the cadet.
7. Repeat Steps 3 to 6 until all cadets have instructed a lesson.
8. Debrief the cadets by providing feedback, focusing on:
- Best practices
- General trends and key areas for improvement
- Re-motivation, highlighting the effort and accomplishments of
the group
NOTES:
- The Instructional Techniques Assessment Form (located at Annex AD)
is used to provide feedback on the cadet's lesson and to introduce
the cadet to the type of instructional techniques assessment they
will receive in their future phase training. The grey areas of the
form are those applicable to the 309 PC (A-CR-CCP-603/PG-001, Chapter
3, Annex B, Appendix 3) (e.g. the standard required for the achievement
of PO 309). The remainder of the form is intended solely for the purposes
of assessment for learning, providing the cadets with the feedback
they need to improve their skills.
- If the group of cadets is large, divide them up into smaller groups
and assign other instructors to aid with assessment and feedback. |
