Your reflection notes

What did you think was good?
St were interested and wanted to learn
When I was explaining they wanted to try
Other students werent listening
What could do better?
Use a better voice

Talk about expectations

Clearer about my instructions

Bring ipads for students to use

Control students more

Fatima,
These are the areas we discussed for you to work on an improve
1. Your stronger presence as a teacher- this means develop your voice
tone, expressions and volume
2. Clearly communicate as a teacher- your expectations, instructions
3. When you explain stage your instructions clearly
4. Manage the group and check all students are in the room to attend
your workshop
5.
This was a workshop that you had planned in your mind but the stages
changed and you seemed to be less confident about what you were going to
do exactly with it. You need to be clear and this is what your preparation is

Bachelor of Education

for. This 3D workshop started well with an introduction in which you gave
a friendly welcome with a clam manner. You used slides to explain the
lesson objectives but it is important

Not to read the slide- if it is necessary can you ask a student and then
repeat or elaborate in your own words

You needed to have a stronger presence in the room as the

facilitator/teacher

Use your voice for effect and have a stronger presence in the room

You are the facilitator/teacher and not student so be stronger in yourself

Check-in and ask students to do more- read, ask questions to others,

share, model

Vary your voice tone and expression

Be clearer with your explanations- you need to be very specific and clear
in your language choices- know how you are going to say- write the key
points in your lesson plan that you want to explain- what are the key
words

This was a small group so there was the opportunity to make this a helpful
conversation for learning before you start introducing and using the program.
Remember the introduction should be used to motivate and interest the st who
come to the workshop- It is important you give them a big picture about what
is possible with 3D printing- isnt this an objective for learning&
understanding?
You could talk about what other students have printed? You could show
an example on the slides?
Then ask st questions about what they want to learn- what is their
course?
Also check-in what do they already know?

Work on developing these points for your next observation.

It was obvious you know and have a broad understanding of using this
program so work on the development of the workshop introduction, phases of
the workshop and your instructions and make your explanations clearer.

Please see my lesson notes in red.

Prior Knowledge (What prior knowledge are you building in?)
I will face new students, I dont know their prior knowledge but I assume that the students know some concepts
about the 3D printer if they did come to the innovation week last semester, but I will include at the beginning
what is 3 printing and its uses.
Lesson Objectives: (What will students be able to do by the end of the lesson?)
Please follow the lesson plan
The students will discover what is tinkercad.com by opening the app and explore it, they will also register
in the website by them selves.
The students will create their own design by adding shapes and text from the application.
The students will respect their peers when they come to the board and explain for them.
Evaluation / Assessment: (How will you know your students have achieved the lesson objectives?)
After the workshop, I will give the students a task to do in papers. More detail
Personal focus (relate to your PDP, state the goal and explain your actions specific to this lesson):
In this lesson I am working on my presentation skills, I will develop my presentation skills to be a real teacher, I
will focus in my body language and make sure that Im close to the girls and make sure that they are working
and paying attention, if they have any question they will write their questions on a piece of paper and then I will
answer them.
Is this your PDP or strategy?In addition, I will use my new skills that I learned independently which are how to
use the tinker cad and save it to print it in 3D printer because this is the first time I use it. What is more, I will use
constructivist strategies, I will let the students to discover the app by their own, I will guide them and make sure
that they are following the steps and create their own design.
Teaching Competencies focus (relate to specific competencies, state the competency area, explain your
focus and actions)
Professionalism: I will do the workshop that the library do every Monday so I am participating in the library
work, before and after the workshop I have discussion with my MST, about what I will do and what I did.
Planning for Learning: In my planning I expect that I will reach most learning styles, with pictures, learning by
doing and I will use the technology that the library provide 3D printer, big LED screen for the instructions and
the steps.
Implementing and Managing Learning: link the concept of 3D printer to life, and how to use this technology in
their learning, in addition, I will help the students if the struggled with any activities that I give them to do.
Monitoring, Assessment and Evaluation: ask the student to help their classmates and do peer evaluation, focus on
the positive feedback with the reason.
Critical Reflection: after class reflection and do a research about any problems that I will face.
Teaching Strategies: (these are important to define so you create an positive and supportive learning
environment during the lesson)
Teaching strategies: active learning, I will bring some students to my laptop and let them try out the steps.
Classroom management strategies: I dont know where the workshop will be but I should be aware that all the
students can see the board.
Behavioral management strategies: they are adults; they will chitchat so I will stop them and make them busy by
giving them an exercise to start working with the new steps and skills.
Feedback strategies: ask the students question related to their previous knowledge and praise who answered
correctly.
What do you need for teaching & learning?
Materials & Resources: PowerPoint presentation, worksheet, evaluation paper.
Technology integration: using the data show for the PowerPoint. Link the ipad with the TV if I used the theater
room.

What the Students do.

13 students

Lesson connection to PDP goals

and/or Action Research Focus

ENGAGE -Introduction:
I will present my self and introduce for the students what is 3D printer, how it works and its uses. It will be very shortly
described, and show them some 3D printer objects that are printed previously.
Welcome and introduction
Clear voice and friendly manner
Give st some questions so you are more st centered- what do you expect to understand after this workshop? Why did
you choose this workshop? How will it be helpful in your major?
Objectives presented using slide- dont look at desktop and read- ask st to read it. Then use these points to check in
that st understand.
3D printing in classroom- reading from slide- give me another example of its use?
Introduce Tinkercad- dont pause or stop keep lesson flow- dont allow interruptions
Talk through what you are doing 10.10Tinkercad.com- sign up- st asked to talk through what she does
St talking keep everyone focused- pace is very slow 10.14
Interface of the program- problem- teach how to use the program
Not sure where to go- st show you create project
Problem need to troubleshoot quickly always try a new server

PHASE ONE:
Worksheets will be distributed.
I will open the tinkercad.com and ask them
to sign up and if they finish they can start
playing with the application to let their
classmate finish signing up.

No laptops- did you ask st to

bring their laptops or advertise
this- it is an important point

10.24 teach a technique-

St requests to model

Ask st to come and paste a

shape

Explain and give time for st to

try the process

At this time engage the other

students- ask a question or ask
them to explain

Long period of silence

Need more explanantioncheck-in understanding- need

more communication eg create
one object

The students will sign up and help each

other if they struggled with any step.
Also, they will respect their friends,
when they finished they will play with
the application.

I will develop my presentation

skills, using body language and
loud voice because this is the
biggest issue I do. Also, I will
constructivist strategy where the
students are learning by them
selves.

Bachelor of Education

PHASE TWO
Show the student one of the videos
from YouTube, about one of the
designs that will help the students
to think about the designs that
they can create. Then ask them to
start building their designs.

Introduce your next phase- you

didnt clearly do this- now we
will this is valuable because.

Check-in Q- can you see the

benefit of grouping?

Language- create holes- a

space-

Be more specific in your

speaking- sometimes unclear

Next save a design- didnt

show

Have st made a design- did you

check in- get them to say what
it is

Communicate what will happen

now- using computers in library

PHASE THREE
I will ask one of the students to come and
start printing in 3D, I will take them out
side to change the routine, I will bring the
3D printer outside because the 3D room is
very small.

After watching the video they will start

thinking deeply about the designs and
how they can use this app to start
building and create their own designs.

I will develop my presentation

skills, using body language and
loud voice because this is the
biggest issue I do.
I will constructivist strategy
where the students are learning
by them selves.
I will use my new IT skills that I
learned and show the students if
they struggled.

One of the students will come and share

her design, the others will follow what
she is saying and then they will come
outside the room.

I will make sure that all the

students are paying attention and
they follow what are their
classmate is doing.

St worked on computers but are

they all here?
You are moving between
groups and supporting
This is a good micro-teaching
opportunity- teach something
extra to each group while they
work

Bachelor of Education

EXTEND/EVALUATE
I will give the students a time to create a
model, which is related to what they study,
and they will use it.

The students will do their task; they did

not they will send it to me by Email.

I will make sure to be closed to

the students and help them; I
want to be like a real teacher by
giving them feedback.

ANTICIPATED PROBLEMS (WHAT IF .?)

The students did not understand what Im saying I will translate it in Arabic because they need to learn and they
maybe will not come again to this workshop.
The students did not have laptop I will let them go out to work with the computers.
