Micro-teaching involves teaching brief lessons to small groups to gain experience and receive feedback, which is analyzed for self-evaluation. It is effective for focused learning compared to other techniques. Community resources are abundant educational materials outside the classroom that facilitate hands-on learning. Teachers can link with community experts, places, and natural areas to bring real-world examples into lessons. While planning is needed, using these resources makes learning more engaging and helps students appreciate their community.

As technology advances and becomes more capable, there are many new teaching styles coming into play. There's a lot of 'new and improved' to be seen, but it's important to remember that sometimes, newer isn't always better.
The word 'lecture' has gotten a bad rap over the years, but in truth, a traditional lecture is still one of the most effective and natural ways of conveying information, and it has stood the test of time through all conceivable models of teaching, across generations, cultures, and ideologies.
We repeatedly turn to lectures because they work. When students settle into a lecture--not in a state of boredom or annoyance, but attentive listening and willingness to learn--the lecture model provides a steady flow of information that students can learn and grow from. By allowing themselves to become immersed in the words of their educators, students activate a powerful mental state that opens them up to retaining new ideas, contemplating the presented information, and expanding their own thinking processes.

The uninterrupted nature of lectures creates a momentum within the subject at hand. Providing students with the setting for a lecture, and then delivering it effectively, helps to prevent distractions from learning and generate the momentum necessary .
Students come into our courses with knowledge, beliefs, and attitudes gained in other courses and through daily life. As students bring this knowledge to bear in our classrooms, it influences how they filter and interpret what they are learning. If students’ prior knowledge is robust and accurate and activated at the appropriate time, it provides a strong foundation for building new knowledge. However, when knowledge is inert, insufficient for the task, activated inappropriately, or inaccurate, it can interfere with or impede new learning. To apply this principle, consider the following teaching techniques:
Administer a diagnostic assessment or have students assess their own prior knowledge (See “Selected Classroom Assessment Techniques (CATs) for Getting Feedback on Student Learning”).
Use brainstorming to reveal prior knowledge.
Identify discipline-specific conventions explicitly.
Ask students to make and test predictions (See “Teaching for Retention in Science, Engineering & Mathematics”).

The Art Pastor's Guide to Sabbath | Steve ThomasonSteve Thomason
What is the purpose of the Sabbath Law in the Torah. It is interesting to compare how the context of the law shifts from Exodus to Deuteronomy. Who gets to rest, and why?
3. Background
Microteaching consists of teaching a brief lesson to a small
group of students in an actual classroom. It is often
resorted to during student-teacher’s practicum before
going out for off-campus teaching. Beginning teachers
likewise undertake this learning activity by teaching their
peers. In addition to gaining experience in teaching, the
opportunity to observe ones own performance for purpose
of analysing and evaluating teaching knowledge and skills
is considered of great value.
4. Rationale
The ultimate aim in microteaching is to obtain feedback
from the students or peers. Feedback may be in the form
of a critique on how the lesson’s objective was achieved,
the mannerism observed, if any, and the expressions that
may have been repeated too often.
6. Effectiveness
The feedback must be followed by a reflection, that is, look
back at why or how such teaching performance progressed
the way it did. This step will determine whether this
strategy is effective or not. A successful and productive
microteaching session is considered a more focused and
down-to-earth way of learning than other teaching
techniques.
For best viewing, critiquing and recording the whole
proceedings, audio visual equipment will be needed such
as video camera, camera, tape recorder, overhead
projector and wide screen. Assistance in using them must
be secured ahead of time.
7. Guidelines:
1. Microteaching is the most effective with groups of 4-6
members, be it for students or peers.
2. The lesson should be brief but complete, requiring
about 12-15 minutes.
3. Feedback should be honest and straight to the point.
The performers are ready to listen and accept peer’s
evaluation.
4. The special equipment needed must be prepared ahead
of time. Blank tapes may be needed for own records.
5. Since feedback is crucial in this learning activity, the
oral and written mode may be employed.
8. Guidelines
6. If critique will be required from the students, they must
be instructed how such can be expressed and recorded.
7. Practice lessons may be viewed over and over to obtain
accurate feedback.
10. Background
Using community resources as a strategy involves familiarization and
eventually close link with all the educational aspects in it – the people
and their expertise, the places with rich instructional materials and the
natural landscape. Teachers can take advantage of the abundant sources
of first hand materials that can make the teaching-learning process
spontaneous and natural.
All learning activities will necessarily take the students out of the
classroom, although some materials from outside can be carried to the
classroom or laboratory for further study. Interview with agriculture
experts, doctors, historians and business men in the community gather
first hand information that are readily available. The community health
clinic, orchard, plant nursery, natural ponds are likewise potential
resources. Learning is facilitated through actual contact with human and
material resources.
11. Effectiveness
1. The use of community resources is commendable strategy which
brings the school close to the community it serves and vice versa.
2. The knowledge and experience gained by exploring and investigating
things in their natural settings are guaranteed to be more permanent
and lasting compared to those learned from printed pages.
3. Educational trips to the community in a more meaningful ,practical
and enjoyable learning.
4. The students become more appreciative, grateful and proud of their
rich resources.
5. Interaction between the school and community leads the students to
a better understanding of the conditions obtaining in it. In the long
run, they may be strongly motivated to participate actively in
projects, academic or social that will redound to a reciprocal
assistance for both.
12. Disadvantages
1. The hazards of traveling in big groups limit the use of
this strategy.
2. Proper planning and pre-tour preparation can be time
consuming
3. Difficulty in scheduling the meeting with the experts is
another constraints.
13. Guidelines
1. The teacher must have a complete file of people, places and
things in the community that could be tapped for specific
instructional purposes.
2. The objective of this out-of-the-classroom activity must be
well understood by the students in order to avoid being
distracted by irrelevant and non-educational observations.
3. A note on proper behaviour will contribute immensely to the
achievement of the objectives and to the safety and comfort
of all.
4. The students must be involved in the selection of the site and
in the planning the entire activity so that they will be guided
on what to do at every step. This will likewise assist them in
tracing the causes of success or failure of the activity during
the evaluation time.
14. Guidelines
5. You may combine the lessons in the other subjects in this single trip,
thus enriching their experiences and accumulating vast knowledge rather
than tackling a single lesson.
6. When meeting authorities in the community, remind students to be
courteous, respectful and warm. They are busy people and must not be
disturbed unnecessarily. Remind them to show appreciation and gratitude
for the time spent with them and valuable information gathered.
7. Design a Plan B for any failure of communication or last minute
cancellation. Ask suggestion for alternative steps from the group.
8. Assign committees with a leader who will be responsible for the
conduct of the group and can guide the group during transfers, audiences
with lectures if any, and in looking after their needs and comfort.
9. Have the entire class evaluate the results of the trip according to the
objective defined beforehand. Encourage them to offer recommendations
to improve succeeding trips
