Feedback from co-teaching method

The co-teaching method includes pair work, group work,role-play and so on. We always say that to teach students how to study rather than only transfer the knowledge to the students in an efficiency way. Transfer knowledge to students may help the learners to absorb the points summarized by the teachers or instructors. The popular methods from co-teaching method are team work and roleplay. Team work is the one which organize students to discuss and observe the experiential inside a group or team.

The method of role-play usually operated after the reading text, as American scholars, who mentioned that role-play is the one of the best teaching methods.Through role-play, the abstract knowledge turns to be more flexible and active. The benefits of choosing teaching method of role-play, which motivate students’ activities, stimulate their interests of participation,as well as enhance their ability in considering knowledge not only on vocabulary, but also social relationships.

The classification of coteaching method includes station teaching, one teach, parallel teaching, alternative teaching and team teaching. No matter which kind of co-teaching method used in an actual classroom situation, the balance between the teachers and students should be considered at the beginning of the lesson. Teachers should be paid much attention to the communication between students,especially for some group discussion on the open questions.

The advantage of pursing co-teaching method in the classroom situation includes approach students’ ability in collaborating their friendships or partnerships. To which aspect to allocate the method of coteaching, the former one may direct students to inform the knowledge and acknowledge the pathway of studying. Inside a group discussion, students try to predict the relationship ahead, such as conflicts and negotiation. Teachers ought to teach learners as a whole, in order to transfer the correct directions to others.

Moreover,it may also need to alone with the well-designed games in teaching listening and speaking.

There are an increasing number of scholars suggested to motivate students’ interests in studying English through exploring the benefits of educational games.The survey we discussed above which represent the challenges from designing educational games and implementation. In terms of this, the purpose of this report mainly focuses on evaluating how to design the educational games in order to deliver a positive learning outcome. In a board sense, the games used in education, refers to not just playing games that its purposes beyond pure entertainment(Backlund and Hendrix, 2014).

Even though plenty kinds of educational games have been developed by the researchers, few of the educational games have been implemented. In other words,this point can be considered as a shortage of educational games.Moreover, it may appear the facts that the bias existed in today’s society, especially for the local education environments.
