7. I.Teaching Large Classes

8. 1.Plan and Plan and Plan
You have to know exactly what you are
going to do next. Dead time while you are
shuffling through textbooks or notes trying to
find the right page or choose an activity is the
perfect time for students to get distracted and
start misbehaving.
2. Working with teacher assistants
Teacher assistants (TA) can help teacher to
control over the class and giving study works
to students.

10. 3. Establish routine and be strict
about the discipline and rules.
Routines are one of the most important
things to have in terms of maintaining order in
the classroom, and when we are established it
we have to work on it strictly. But it doesn’t
mean that you have to be a mean teacher.

11. 4. Organizing and Managing your
times
Prepare the class with a clear structure and
set of expectations and communicate those
to the students.

12. 5. Divide the class into teams
Having funs, competitive environment
can help motivate students by rewarding
points for the quietest team, best behavior, or
fastest to finish their work.

13. 6. Give students chance to participate
In a large classroom, it’s easy for quieter
students to fade into the background while the
more outgoing ones answer the questions and
participate too much.

15. 7. Establish a rapport
Teacher should be friendly to
students and find ways to remember
students’ name otherwise, teacher should
speak with students as much as they enter
the classroom. Such efforts often result in
a better rapport between teacher and
students, and as a consequence, a more
engaged classroom.

16. 8. Be patient and affirmative with
students in classroom
These behaviors can
bolster student confidence,
and more confident students
are much more likely to
participate in class. Many
students will shut down in a
class when they perceive an
instructor as harsh. In such
cases, the fear of instructor
disapproval become more
pronounced.

17. 9. Theater setting
A seating arrangement that feels more like
a theater than a class induces students
passivity.

18. 1. Use technology in and out
classroom

20. Large classes are perceived as
difficult to engage students. However,
the basic level of engagement with
students is the same across all class
sizes. The focus is on engaged teaching
and active learning.

21. 1. Work on the relationship
between teacher and students
 Get to know your students by name
 Show them you are human
 Set a task and wander around the class
 Help students feel 'at home‘
 Agree the ground rules
 Try to understand how your students think
 Encourage self-reflection:
 Have a change of activities/pace
 Raise reflective questions
 Use your tutors:

22. 2. Feedback
Get informal and formal feedback
from students to get their views
Minute paper

23. 3. Encourage communication
between the students
Social networking
Make it a requirement to know the
names of those sitting next to you.
Encourage students to talk to someone
else in the class
Think-Pair-Share exercises
Raise questions
Mini quiz

24. 4. Punishment
Punishment is the act of inflicting a
consequence or penalty on someone as
a result of their wrongdoing, or the
consequence or penalty itself. Restrict
students to do something limitedly,
otherwise student will be punished.

25. 5. Motivation
A force or influence that causes someone to do
something. Encourage students about the benefit
of learning and what they will get back from their
hardship. Give
Students any
Successful
Experiences
related to
learning to
Persuade
students in
positive way.

26. 6. Dealing with the specific
problem
Define the nature and scope of problem.
Identify the cause of problem and the best
solution.
