Achievement of Your Objectives

Did they learn and how do I know they did? If not, why not?

  • Were the stated objectives/learning outcomes achieved?
    • There was an early hush
    • Putting my rules on the Electronic whiteboard worked
    • My admin was a lot better – getting the pupils to hand out the work.
    • The Start was better.
    • I am gathering more confidence, which I feel I can carry into other classes.
  • What evidence do you have?

Clarity of my Teaching

Were my instructions and teaching expositions clear to pupils?

Getting the Pupils Engaged

  • Was the response of the pupils enthusiastic, uncertain/negative?
  • Did everyone have a real chance to be actively engaged in the lesson?

Issues of class management/control

  • Did I cope with any disruptions? (Did the plan cater for behaviour management?)
    • Don't say "Has anyone got a better answer?" Say, "That's really good, but we have an even more precise term in maths. Can anyone tell me what it is?"
    • Paige was very rude and disrespectful. Next time I should take her out, to put the fear of God into the rest.
    • John was talking and not listening. When I asked him to explain vertex, he couldn't.

Knowing the Pupils

  • Did I show the class that I knew their names?
    • Yes
  • Do I have evidence of the pupils’ strengths and weaknesses? (How do I really know what these are?)

Time Management

Did I time-manage the lesson well?

  • No! Yet again, I utterly overestimated the amount of material we could get through. My review of the homework had to be completely bypassed, for lack of time. I now have the problem of knowing when to squeeze it in, and in which lesson.

If I could give the lesson again ...

My Subject Knowledge

Any additional subject knowledge development I need to undertake?

  • I need to bring my vocabulary down to their level. Polyhedron needs writing on the board and explaining.
    • Vertex needs associating with vertices.
    • What is a family?

Other issues

For example, do I now have good evidence for having met a particular standard on your course profile?

  • Back level version of software on the T12 computer meant my PowerPoint presentation did not work.

Action for next lesson

  • By tomorrow, I need a strategy for insisting they stick their hands up before they blurt anything out.
    • Some day I might try a no-hands-up phase in the lesson where I reserve the right to choose who will answer the question. * I need to get them to stop talking or working on something else, and start listening to me.
  • I need to prepare quicker.
  • I need to become more productive in lessons. Hand less stuff out. Get the bright students to hand things out.
