Examples And Personal Experiences Spice Up The Session

Examples, personal experiences, short stories, and classroom exercises, if planned and administered correctly, facilitate easy learning. The examples in the textbook do not necessarily suffice to make the point. The teacher necessarily has to develop his own lesson-specific, class- specific examples and anecdotes. Examples taken from daily newspaper reports are more intriguing than those readily available in the textbook. Personal experiences, which can form the most interesting part of the lesson, should be retrieved from memory vault much before and given in the session. Examples should be closely relevant to the point, but not far-fetched.

Questioning Keeps Students Curious

Making the students curious about the lesson, which is essential for the success of the lesson, relies heavily on the way the teacher poses questions to be answered

A great lesson is the one, by which both teacher and students are satisfied. The content of a satisfying lesson need not be large enough to fill several pages of a note book. A student, in fact, wants to carry back home a few points – not really a larger content- from the class room. At least, the inspiration created by the teacher towards a particular learning method - using a particular website or a textbook- suffices and leaves a memorable impression on a student. Or, impressing upon a student the importance of understanding a particular topic gives him a real satisfaction. Now the question is: What makes a lesson worth remembering with pleasure? In fact, students relish not only significance of the content, but also how they are comfortable while imbibing it.

To expand, students will enjoy and remember a short, pleasant lesson more than they will a long, boring lesson made difficult by complex methodology. Students rather wonder why the teachers vary in their ability to make a mark as interesting teachers and why they don’t step into the shoes of the students. Students also often bemoan, as I overheard their private discussions that many teachers don’t understand what students require and how their requirements have to be met by the teaching community. Teachers don’t seem to think in the direction the students want them to. In fact, many teachers don’t ever know that students will respect them, cease to yawn, and love to sit their classrooms if only they present the lesson the way they want it. Now, what is that a teacher has to do to win over the students in every session.

Preparation Is The Key

A classroom session can be just as good as the preparation is. Preparation, usually, covers issues such the contents, examples, personal experiences, data, time frame, teaching aids and last but not least the exact wordings. If words are not carefully chosen at the planning stage itself, the words that come in the session have greater chances to be square pegs in round holes, as well as lacking the authority and force. In regards to the importance of preparation, a junior teacher as well as an experienced teacher also necessarily has to prepare for the lesson; else, his lesson can be soporific for the audience. Bye the bye, yawns is a direct measure of boredom created by an unplanned lesson. Coming to the imperative of preparation for experienced teachers, a natural advantage for them is that they have to spend less time preparing for the session while new teachers have to slog a little longer in preparation.

Preparation does not only require jotting down of outlines, examples etc, but also rehearsing within oneself what is going to unfold in his session. It is usually best for junior teachers if they do the rehearsing within themselves as many times as possible. This is a tested and proven technique; if practiced religiously, one can see the results in the first session itself. The advantages of rehearsing include an easy flow of the lesson, control over students, and the facility of getting across the content and a high quality satisfaction for both. One should prepare for obviously easier things also like short personal experiences, quotes of the veterans etc as well as apt wordings as explained earlier. Notwithstanding so much preparation, one must follow the suggestion of Maxwell Maltz (Author of Psycho-cyberntics), which says that the delivery of the lesson should be left to his spontaneity.

Introduction Sets The Tone

Introduction to the topic is the most integral and essential part of a lesson. An introduction well done not only prepares the students for the learning but also energizes the teacher by relieving him of his tension. Introduction provokes interest among the students. The purposes of introduction include: a) familiarization of the basic concepts b) explanation of usefulness of learning a particular topic. I usually stress: how important the key learning points of the topic are for living a successfully in the world, or how it helps learning other topics or how it helps in notching up better grades. A well presented introduction facilitates a smooth presentation of the remaining contents of the lesson.

Making the students curious about the lesson, which is essential for the success of the lesson, relies heavily on the way the teacher poses questions to be answered by the students. Questions prick the students’ minds. By questioning, students are helped to go along the path of the lesson plan. Questioning not only gives feedback but also the gauges the understanding level of the students. Questioning is a sure method to take control of the class. A teacher should master this technique. A word of caution is that the teacher should ask open-ended questions and only those questions whose answers and possible perspectives he is familiar with.

A carefully planned, imaginative session is always a success. Nobody is exempt from the imperatives of preparation. Examples and personal experiences add spice to the lesson. Introduction to the topic and explanation of the basic concepts facilitates the process of learning. Questions keep the students interested in the class.
