Practical Considerations
Sequencing
Pacing
Gauging difficulty
Accounting for individual differences
Monitoring learner versus teacher talk
Timing

Is this correct?
• When you ask a question in class, immediately
call for volunteers
• Give tests that are very long Teach without sharing
learning objectives
• Judge student by his/her behavior rather not
his/her academic achievement
• Give hard test to scare students
• Have students work in groups with no individual
accountability

Evaluation
Enables the teacher and learners
to assess how well they have
grasped the lesson

Reflection
What went well? Why?
What did not go as planned? Why?
If I had it to do over again, what
would I change?
What have I learned about my
students that I can account for in
future lesson planning?
