What is the importance of micro-teaching in teacher preparation?

Question

Education

Answer 1

Do you mean the mini lessons that you perform for your classmates. They then give you their opinion as to what was good and what did not work?

If this is what you mean then I can tell you that for 1 it gives confidence. It also allows you to see potential problems before you have to teach to real kids. If something is not explained well then you can figure out what you did wrong and fix it before it counts.

One thing that I remember being pointed out to me was that I did not seem to call on kids who were sitting in the corners of the room. One man said that he felt frustrated because he raised his hand several times and I did not call on him.

Another thing that was helpful to me was that some people said that they never really understood the subject matter that I presented, but after my lesson it made sense. That was a bit of a confidence builder.

It gives you insight into what it will be like, even if it is just your peers. It helps.
