Reflection on Micro-teaching (evaluation)

I enjoyed our first micro-teaching topic on something that is non-academic! The topics from our presenters were quite diverse and very interesting, though I wished I could have stayed longer to listen to all of the presentations.

My micro-teaching topic was on tea, more specifically on the history of tea and how tea has influenced and shaped the meaning of our cultures through time. From my reflection of my own presentation and how others evaluated my presentation, I had a clear objective in mind, the materials were well organized, and the scope of tea and its impact on societies from different parts of the world were thoroughly covered in the 10-minute presentation. One thing that I need to work on would be to include more participation from students. I need to include more ways to assess their learning and understanding by asking questions that are more challenging to get their minds moving. I should have brought in more fun activities for them to work on, but I guess there were so much materials that I wanted to cover but couldn't in a short period of time. Another thing I need to work on is to control the volume of my voice. I need to speak louder so that everyone can hear me clearly (especially when there are other groups presenting at the same time).

Overall, I had an enjoyable time learning new materials from other teacher candidates! Thank you all for sharing your knowledge with me!
