...that the lights had been turned off and the blinds were closed so that the learners could clearly read my presentation. When the presentation was over I turned the lights back on so that they could read and complete my feed back with adequate lighting. I ensured that I was at facing all my learners and that the learners were facing the Smart Board. This was to ensure that when I was addressing the learners then could see and hear me clearly and vice versa. This layout also helped when feeding back or answering questions. ‘In a presentation, the main thing is that the presenter and his or her visual aids can be seen, (Truelove 2006, p147)’. ‘People should be sitting fairly close to each other, ideally in a circle. (Truelove 2006, p151)’. This also ensured that whilst observing the presentation learners were sat comfortably and facing both the Smart Board and myself, minimising the need for too much movement and disruption. ‘The discussion leader controls the discussions by asking questions that are replied to by group members directing the response to the leader. (Truelove 2006, p152)’. ‘Look at your audience from the beginning. Smile at them. Do not, however, fix on one ‘friendly face’, but rather scan the audience. This creates empathy, and also lets you read their reaction to what you are saying. (Truelove, 2006, p137)’. The room was all also set at a control temperature so that the learners were comfortable and not over or under heated. This helped ensure they were...

...Question A – TEACHING CONTEXT I currently teach at an inner city private school. I teach English Home Language to Grades Ten, Eleven and Twelve. The school is relatively well – resourced and provides the necessary infrastructure to facilitate learning. Classrooms are equipped with the sufficient number of desks and chairs. All learners and educators are issued with the appropriate resources such as textbooks and study guides to achieve the outcomes of the curriculum as determined by the Department of Basic Education. Periods are 40 minutes long. A total of four hours per cycle is dedicated to the learning of the home language. The majority of learners are from a lower to medium economic background. The school’s language of teaching and learning is English. Consequently, all learners are registered as English Home Language learners. In reality and for most learners, English is their second or even third language. Many of the learners had their actual mother – tongue as medium of instruction at a primary education level. After two years of secondary education ( Grades 8 and 9 ) this aspect of the context, for both learner and school, often remains a challenge. This assignment will focus on the Grade 12 group. 2. Question B – PASSAGE I have chosen an article ( DEAR JOBLESS GRADUATE ) written by Doctor Jonathan Jansen which appeared in THE TIMES of 21 June 2012.

...Success: Never Standing Still. We hope that those who attended will be able to use the resources and activities themselves and that it will be stimulating as well as useful for those who were unable to attend. As with all of Dialogue NW activities this event was more than a training session telling people how to do it – instead we wanted to provide a space for critical discussion and reflection. Our focus was on the learners and what success meant to them, acknowledging that this may be very different to official concerns and discourses around recruitment, retention and achievement. If we start from the learner, then success is more about the journey than crossing an imaginary finishing line: it is about the hurdles, the timing and in some cases the stamina to finish what might feel like a gruelling race. It also allows us to appreciate that the journey is not always straightforward and it is often easier when travelling with others. It is much more than the bullet point statements often used to describe or monitor success. We started the day by thinking how learner and institutional perspectives on what counts as success may be different. Comments and discussion from participants suggested that although we know about these differences we often get drawn into organisational or official views of success, putting our own professional knowledge on the back boiler. People felt that professional...

...CHAPTER 1 The Problem and its Background Introduction Study habits simply mean how students manage their time in such a way that can review and study their lessons in school regularly. It becomes a habit or way of life of the student just like brushing their teeth every after eating, taking a bath every day, and other activities that they are doing. A student who developed their study habits could not sleep or go to school without studying their lessons. A student can be more intelligent and have a self – confidence in class compared to those who do not developed their study habits. A student who does not have a good study habits cannot do well in class recitation, daily quizzes, and school demonstration since they did not study and review the lessons learned. Good study habits are the tool to success. Without well developed study habits, a student cannot perform well in class, and surely, they cannot reach their ambitions in life. Nowadays, many student are engaged in computer games just like DOTA; cutting classes, watching pornography, excessive playing on their gadgets like their cell phones, iPods, computers, PSP, and other devices they have, and worst of all is that they engage in vices such as illegal drugs, gambling, and crimes and even prostitution. Other students use their intelligence in foolishness and not in good deeds. Students should know how to manage their time wisely and keep their selves away from bad traits and vices. They should serve as models to...
