Effective teacher talk techniques include moving around the class and varying voice. Group work can make teacher talk more engaging when combined with technology.
Textbooks? No! Blended CALL for EFL Conversation Classes! Throw away the text...
I’ve been experimenting for the last five years with teaching conversation classes based on student surveys, short topical reports, longer presentations, online video self-analysis and peer-analysis of presentation skills, English karaoke, diary writing that blend the use of in class speaking activities backed up by web-based study or support. This presentation will take a “my share” approach to explaining some class activities, web based activities and class management approaches that allow the teacher to become a coach and let students learn at their own pace.
Lasson systam
This lesson plan is for a 50-minute class on decimal systems for 12 trainees studying electronic technology.

Organizing board work
Organizing Board Work discusses best practices for using the board in English language teaching. The board should be organized to encourage student engagement and memory retention. It is important to divide the board into sections for lesson content and notes, use different colors, and invite students to write on the board. Proper board organization and handwriting help students understand lessons and transfer information to their notebooks clearly. Teachers should regularly check their board work from the students' perspective and plan board activities to support visual and engaged learning.
Jigsaws webinar January 31, 2013
This document provides an overview of the jigsaw technique for active learning in undergraduate geoscience courses. It discusses how jigsaws work by dividing a class into expert groups to prepare different parts of an overall topic, then recombine students into new groups for peer teaching. The presenter emphasizes key elements for a successful jigsaw like ensuring assignments are doable, students are prepared, and there is a unifying group task. Examples provided include interpreting stratigraphic data to understand past climate change in the Sahara and classifying rock samples. Strategies are offered for implementing jigsaws with readings, fieldwork, calculations and more. Questions from participants are addressed and additional online resources on jigsaws are shared.
Peer Observation at FHC
Peer observation of teaching allows teachers to learn from one another by observing classroom techniques and gaining new perspectives on student learning. The process involves using structured protocols for planning observations, non-evaluative observation of a colleague's classroom, and reflective debriefing about what was observed. This helps foster sharing of best practices and a collaborative, learning-centered approach to professional development between teachers.
50 best practices for language teachers
50 things language teachers can focus on and do well to make their teaching and classroom a better learning environment and experience.
Presentation (fv v1)
The document discusses how students used MacBooks, iPod touches, and new technology over the course of one month. The students created podcasts, presentations, and comic books to enhance their learning. The technology allowed the students to take ownership of their learning, help each other, and express themselves with fewer mistakes. It also improved students' fluency, engagement, and retention of information. The teacher saw students who were previously afraid of presentations and those who struggled with pronunciation benefit greatly from the new technologies.
Teaching by stations
During this workshop English teachers will be able to practice this simple approach to grammar in order to achieve the necessary English structure teaching to our students. Teaching by Stations is generally used when there are more than two teachers in a classroom. Nevertheless, that is not the case in the majority of the Bi-National Centers. To achieve a multi-teacher instruction given by a single educator is the purpose of this presentation. The development of this approach was a result of various trial and error procedures that ended up in a multi skilled way to what I like to call the fun shortcut to grammar.

Historic architecture
The document summarizes several historic architectural landmarks from around the world, including their origins and symbolic significance. The landmarks described are the Parthenon in Athens, the Roman Colosseum in Rome, the Tower of London in England, the US Capitol Building in Washington DC, the Taj Mahal in India, Mission Concepcion in San Antonio, and the former World Trade Center towers in New York City. Each structure provides cultural and historical insights into the societies that built them.
Prenatal development
Prenatal development occurs in three periods: the period of the ovum from conception to 2 weeks, the period of the embryo from 2-8 weeks, and the period of the fetus from 8 weeks until birth. During the period of the ovum, the fertilized egg undergoes cell multiplication and implants in the uterus. In the period of the embryo, major organs and bones form along with the placenta, amniotic fluid, and umbilical cord to provide nourishment. By the period of the fetus, organs mature and the baby begins moving, sucking its thumb, and hiccupping.
Prenatal care
Pregnant women should eat a nutritious diet, get regular checkups, exercise in moderation, and avoid drugs, alcohol, and smoking. They should gain 24-30 pounds total, with slower weight gain at first and steady weekly gains later in pregnancy. Proper nutrition is crucial for the health of the mother and developing fetus.
Miscarriage & stillbirth
Miscarriage is the loss of pregnancy before 20 weeks and is often caused by chromosomal abnormalities in the early embryo. Recurrent miscarriage, occurring more than once, is less likely due to random chromosomal issues and may be caused by structural uterine problems, blood clotting disorders, chromosomal disorders, hormonal imbalances, or immune system malfunctions. Stillbirth occurs after 20 weeks of pregnancy and can result from cervical weakness, placental problems, or preterm labor, with 24 weeks often being the minimum gestation for infant survival.
Heredity
Identical twins occur when a single fertilized egg splits into two embryos, while fraternal twins develop from two separate eggs fertilized by different sperm. Conjoined twins result when an egg begins to split like identical twins but fails to completely separate, causing the embryos to share parts of the body. Heredity plays a large role in determining physical traits that are passed down from parents to children through genes and chromosomes. Factors like genetics and environment can also impact prenatal development and may cause birth defects.
Early pregnancy
The document discusses early signs of pregnancy such as a missed period, fatigue, breast tenderness, nausea, frequent urination, dizziness, and changes in appetite or mood. It notes that a pregnancy test is needed to confirm pregnancy through urine or blood tests measuring hormones like HCG. An obstetrician specializes in prenatal care and pregnancy usually takes about 40 weeks. Common discomforts in pregnancy include nausea, fatigue, heartburn, swelling, and frequent urination while complications could involve bleeding, high blood pressure, headaches or abdominal pain.
Principles of hospitality chapter 2
Hospitality and tourism make up one of the world's largest industries. While hospitality businesses and tourism are separate, they are also related and have an interconnected effect on each other. Destinations need to be properly marketed and have adequate infrastructure like transportation, accommodations, and attractions in order to attract tourists. Both the public and private sectors play important roles in developing and promoting destinations and travel. People travel internationally and domestically for both business and leisure purposes. While tourism provides economic benefits, it can also negatively impact local environments and cultures.
History of the study of child development
Parenting styles have evolved significantly over time. Historically, children were viewed as the property of their parents and expected to obey without question. As views changed, the authoritarian style gave way to authoritative and permissive approaches that consider children's input and independence. Today, children are seen as individuals deserving nurturing environments to grow and learn at their own pace through play and exploration.

Tardy procedures for students
The document outlines the tardy policy for students at the school. It lists dress down days that students can earn every two weeks by having no tardies. It then details the consequences for tardies, starting with a warning for the first tardy. Consequences become increasingly severe, culminating in loss of passing periods or overnight suspension. Detention is assigned after the 4th tardy.
Tardy
Being late to class by 5 minutes for 3 classes a day, 4 days a week for a month adds up to losing 4 hours of instructional time. The document warns that being tardy so often means losing a significant amount of learning and could harm one's future, so students should make sure to get to class on time.
