OF TEACHING PRACTICE
INTRODUCTION
The concept of
Internship introduced in the two year B.Ed. course throughout the country is
quite challenging one for all the teacher education institutions. The aim of internship
program is to incorporate teaching skills among the student teachers.
Internship program is an effective way to give training to the student-teachers
about real world of work. It give them an opportunity to integrate theory and
practice, plan and deliver lessons properly, critically analyse their own and
peers teaching styles and improve them in the light of feedback given by
supervisors. Through this program they understand the role and responsibilities
of professional teachers. Internship program also give them opportunity to
understand different aspects of school program and improve their skills and
abilities in teaching profession. An effective and improved internship program
is required in developing student-teachers personalities as true professionals
in field of education.
As part of the B.Ed. curriculum, our first
phase teaching practice was started at 25/1/2021. Due to the prevailing
conditions teaching practice was divided into peer to peer teaching and face to
face teaching.
PEER TO PEER OFFLINE TEACHING
Peer to peer teaching has students take on a
teaching role in a school setting in order to share their knowledge with other
students. “Peer teaching can enhance learning by enabling learners to take
responsibility for reviewing, organizing, and consolidating existing knowledge
and material; understanding its basic structure; filling in the gaps; finding
additional meanings; and reformulating knowledge into new conceptual
frameworks’ (Dueck, 1993).”
Our offline peer teaching begins on 25/1/2021 and ends on 2/2/2021. It was really a wonderful experience to me. In peer teaching I covered 7 lesson transcripts in offline mode. the topics covered includes trade, industry and its types, scientific management and its objective, starting a business- basic factors, mail order houses, types of partners and types of partnership. My friends support me a lot in the successful completion of the peer teaching. Optional teacher and general teacher visited to watch our class and gave adequate feedback for us. These feedback help me to improve a lot in my way of teaching.
PEER TO PEER ONLINE TEACHING
The online peer teaching starts on 3/2/2021
and ends on 8/2/2021. The topic covered includes registration of partnership
firm, delegation of authority, consumer protection and its importance,
wholesaler and functions of wholesaler, types of channels, international
business and its benefits, business ethics and its elements, and admission of a
partner.
FACE TO FACE ONLINE TEACHING (7 lessons)
The second phase of face to face teaching
practice was really an unforgettable one. It was a pleasant experience with my
students and receives their love and affection. Face to face teaching starts on
9/2/2021.Their interest for the class itself a right motivation for me to
prepare effectively for the class. Students are very responsive and they clear
doubts adequately. I used power-point
presentation for my class. I got students of G.H.S.S palayamkunnu for face to
face teaching. The school teacher allotted the chapter business services from
class plus one.
First 7 lesson plans covered includes
service, nature of services, banking and its types, commercial banks and its
functions, e banking and its benefits, insurance and its functions and
principles of insurance. In the topic types of banks I showed an innovative
work also.
FACE TO FACE ONLINE TEACHING (8 lessons)
In face to face teaching I also covered topics
such as life insurance and its elements, life insurance and its types, fire
insurance and its elements, marine insurance and its elements, postal services,
telecom services, transportation warehousing and types of warehousing. This
face to face teaching ends on 24/2/2021.
I tested them with achievement test on
26/2/2021 and diagnostic tests and provided remedial teaching. While conducting
achievement test the students face difficulty in the area insurance. So from
that area a diagnostic test was conducted. From the diagnostic test it was
clear that they have some difficulty in the area principles of insurance. Then
I provided remedial measures and conducted another test. In that test majority
students score above 95%.
A group of attentive students was the main
factor behind the success of the face-to-face online teaching. This experience
boosted our confidence as we are capable of taking classes in the online and
offline mode equally. The face to face teaching was ended on 24 /2/2021 with a
test. During the teaching practice I understood that it was difficult to be a
teacher and I am ready to struggle to overcome all the difficulties and
challenges to become a successful teacher.
CONCLUSION
I have completed my 30 lesson transcripts,
diagnostic test, innovative work, and achievement test. Our teachers gave
valuable instructions for us and this will boost our confidence level. Our
principal and optional teacher helps us a lot for the successful completion of
the teaching practice. As a teacher trainee, I am very happy to complete my
teaching practice successfully. It was a valuable experience for my future life
and teaching profession. I hope to become a good teacher.
I improved a lot by this teaching practice. I
improved my speaking skills. I put a lot of effort in my communication
skill. Students were most active while
teaching with ICT. After diagnostic test I found some difficult section with
students so I used remedial teaching for that. The experience and lessons that
I learned from this internship will definitely strengthen me in the process of
becoming an effective teacher. Charts,
pictures, flash cards and activity cards were used sufficiently
