On the other hand, I want to use this note as an systematically organization classes outline. I
will adjust few things and use the same structure. Then I will guide my students to learn the
knowledge. According to Greenfield (1999), the scaffold, as it is known in building construction,
has five characteristics: it provides a support; it functions as a tool; it extends the range of the
worker; it allows a worker to accomplish a task not otherwise possible; and it is used to selectively
aid the worker where needed. (p. 118) Through scaffolding my students can gradually solve
difficult question in learning process.
Reflection on how this will impact your approach to teaching and learning:
I will use this form in my future classes with few changes. Before every class start
I will distribute this handout to my students, and then ask my students to fill out this
form while they are listening. Basically, this handout guides students learning, and
shows the important points that teacher is going to mention in the class. So I will put
my main ideas on it, guide my students learning and show the process of the class.
After the class I will gather all the handouts and check whether my students take notes
or not, which is a effective way to help students concentrating in the class.
On the other hand, writing through fun way is a effective method for teaching
Chinese students. Basically, every Chinese students learned writing by the grammar
translation method. Translation itself is an academic exercise rather than one which
would actually help learners to use language, and an overt focus on grammar is to
learn about the target language rather than to learn it.(2012) Thus, through those
writing games my students will enjoy writing instead of frustrating.
