Controversial topics - British Council Malaysia - PDP 4 ELT - Selangor 14
The document discusses the use of controversial topics in classroom discussions. It lists some topics that have been used or avoided in class and identifies both advantages and disadvantages of discussing controversial issues. The advantages include students learning to think critically and respect opposing views, but disadvantages are that some students may feel too emotional or dissatisfied with certain topics. The document recommends that teachers control discussions, remain neutral, and consider alternative activities like reading on topics followed by a written response.
silence is silver
The narrator experiences an awkward silence on their first day of teaching college students. As the teacher, they realize they are expected to lead the class discussion but have not prepared what to say. They panic and have the students write about current events to fill the time. At the end of class, relieved that the awkward first session is over, the narrator reflects on the lesson learned - as the teacher, it is their responsibility to guide discussion and get students to open up, not just fill silence themselves.

Ticket out the door
The document describes a "Ticket Out the Door" used to help students review and reflect on what they learned in class. The ticket has statements for students to evaluate their participation, including whether they spoke appropriately, stayed on task, tried their best, and respected other students' learning. It also prompts students to write down two things they learned and anything that made the learning difficult or easy that day. Students then rate their effort and participation on a scale from 1 to 4.
Learning styles
This document describes different learning styles and provides examples of activities or traits associated with each style. It identifies seven main learning styles: verbal/linguistic, logical/mathematical, visual/spatial, bodily/kinesthetic, musical/rhythmic, interpersonal, intrapersonal, and naturalist. For each style, it lists examples of things learners with that style may enjoy or be good at.

Teachers are leaders
This document discusses the role of teachers as leaders. It emphasizes that every individual in the campus is a learner and that a teacher's role is to shepherd their students, not their title or designation. Good teachers know each of their students and pay attention to those on the edges or outskirts who may face more problems. The document promotes finding opportunities in problems rather than blaming others. It encourages teachers to do what they love and develop a passion for teaching to help students learn and progress. Teachers are urged to take on responsibility and empower others through positive communication in order to become strong leaders.
Classroom games
The document describes 4 activities to engage students in learning irregular verbs, vocabulary, and other classroom content:
1) Zoom! - Students take turns saying letters of an irregular verb's past participle form until it is completed, with the last student saying the full word.
2) Fast Cars! - Students write sentences using randomly called out words and race paper cars across a finish line.
3) Paper Ball Fight! - Students throw paper balls at each other with written vocabulary words, then make sentences from the words they collect.
4) Vocabulary Scramble - Students rearrange letter cards to form new words within a time limit, competing to make the most words.
What's your name
This document provides instructions for an activity called "Academic Mini-Mixers" where students learn about each other through brief introductions. The goals are to establish rapport, make students feel part of the class, and do a light writing assessment without students realizing. Students would create a 3-slide presentation with their name and 3 facts on slide 1, 3 things they are about on slide 2, and 3 things they are not about on slide 3. This could be done school-wide or for each class period to help students get to know each other at the start of the academic year.
Literacy
Literacy shapes how people understand the world through language, communicate with others through speaking and writing, and estimate 6-8 million adults in the UK have weak literacy skills. Weak literacy is demonstrated through struggling to make meaning from words, follow instructions, use vocabulary and punctuation clearly in writing, and articulate ideas clearly in speaking. Without improving literacy skills, students may fail exams and have difficulty finding jobs. Literacy skills are important for all subjects in school and should be taught to some degree by all teachers to help students develop skills faster.

Learning Literacy
The President of the Optimism Club turned to me; “Draw a number please,” she ordered. I reached my clammy hands into the bowl and snatched a piece of paper. I drew number one. That means I was to be first to present. I walked to the center of the stage and gathered myself for the moment I’d been preparing myself for weeks. I looked up from my jam-packed notecards into a sea of people and began… “Why me? Why not?”
Literacy is most widely known as the ability to read and write although it is not an ability one can acquire overnight, but a process that evolves with experience. My ability to write in a sophisticated and fluid manner has been an ongoing and exasperating process. In my younger years my writing was imaginative, enjoyable, and exciting. Although just like all skills advance so did my writing. As I entered middle school, my writing took a turning point when presenting became part of the process. Writing speeches and presenting them became the next frustrating milestone of my writing development. Through perseverance and practice my writing exploration has made me the literate person I am today, not only in writing, but in presenting with confidence.
My first recollection of writing included writing stories of the best memories of my childhood. As a young girl I spent a lot of my time with my Grandpa Baird. Almost every day we both would take our walking sticks and stroll to the candy store to pick up a sugary treat; I would always get a pack of Rolos. This memory was the first thing I ever wrote about due to the assignment I received in the first grade to write about a special memory. I will never forget the feeling of enthusiasm I sensed when I got to write about someone that I loved and enjoyed spending so much time. The satisfaction when Baird read my story will never leave me. Writing was a pleasurable, and inspiring part of me; all this changed when I entered middle school.
In middle school the topics I was assigned were often uninteresting and tedious. Teachers expected faultless grammar, proper sentence structure, and the dreaded 3.5 format to be done appropriately. My head was befuddled with a.

Topic: DNA
Dear Students,
As Dr. Watson's assistant, I wanted to share with you what I have learned about DNA from working with him in the lab. DNA, or deoxyribonucleic acid, is the genetic material found in the nucleus of cells that contains the instructions for building and maintaining organisms. It is made up of four chemical bases - adenine, guanine, cytosine, and thymine - that bond together in a double helix shape. DNA replicates itself during cell division and is passed down from parents to offspring. I hope this brief overview helps you understand the amazing molecule that makes us who we are. Let me know if you have any other questions!

1. Class Norms.pptx
The document provides instructions for creating class norms in a science class. It discusses having students write anonymously about times they felt good or bad in class, then sharing these experiences to practice empathy. Guidelines are given for brainstorming norms, including examples like always smiling and non-examples like being late. Students generate potential norms around acting with empathy, challenging themselves, learning together, creating change, and following school rules. Their final agreed upon norms are recorded and include listening to others, being awake and working together, respecting each other, loving each other and helping others improve.

Aptitude, attitude and motivation towards language learning
The document discusses aptitude, attitude, and motivation towards language learning. It defines aptitude as a natural ability, attitude as emotional involvement and feelings, and motivation as goals and reasons for pursuing an action. Motivation towards learning a foreign language depends on desires for personal growth, communication, and professional opportunities. The document also discusses Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences and questions about learning styles posed by the British Council.
How teacher and student should be
Teacher and students have important and interdependent roles. A teacher should be a knowledgeable communicator and listener who judges students based on their character rather than appearance, and guides students beyond textbooks to discuss general knowledge and real-world issues. A good teacher has different teaching styles and cares about students. Students should respect teachers, work in groups, read beyond textbooks, and ask teachers for help if they have trouble understanding after trying themselves first. Both teachers and students are lifelong learners.
Perceptions of Efficacy: If I'm not suffering, am I learning?
Designing a delightful learning experience would seem essential if we want to motivate adult learners to engage with our products. But do adult learners value ‘fun’ learning experiences? In this talk we explore student perceptions of products designed to provide entertaining, stress-free learning, such as bite-sized video-based activities and social clubs. Specifically, we examine questions raised by some students of the efficacy of learning experiences which don’t feel like ‘hard work’.
First session
This document discusses strategies for improving communicative competence in the classroom. It emphasizes the importance of interaction, collaboration, and working in pairs and groups. Students should feel comfortable taking risks and not be afraid of making mistakes.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
