Mulawarman Samarinda Activities - Bruce
Speaking Club: Weekly, each Saturday morning from 9:00 to 10:30
The focus of this project is on production so there are a lot of games, role playing and other activities. Since they are all training to be English teachers there are also discussions on how these games and other activities can be utilized in the classroom. Students are very curious about western culture and ask many questions. The participants are very eager to practice their English with me and enjoy the time we spend together. The impact of this project will be that these pre-service teachers will come away with a better understanding of English and how to teach it. They will also gain a better impression of Americans and American culture and will pass it on to their students
Workshop for university lecturers and pre-service teacher
Date: March 11th, 2006
Title: Communicative Speaking Activities
Participants: 23
The focus of the workshop was to familiarize participants with various types of communicative speaking activities. There was also a presentation and discussion on the theory behind them. Most of the activities practiced were taken from the “Books in a Box” collection so participants were able to learn how to utilize some of the materials and see their value in teaching as well. The week after the workshop I was able to observe participants use activities practiced at the workshop and apply some of ideas gained from it in their own teaching. They have also been coming to me to look through some of the books to use other activities from them.
English speech contest Judge
Host Institution: SMPK 22 middle school, Samarinda
Date: March 4th, 2006
I was asked to be a judge for an English speech contest for middle school students. The theme was computers and the internet. All the students put forth a good effort and I was impressed with their performances and the obvious time they put into preparing. They represented about 8 or 9 different middle schools in Samarinda and they were well supported by their classmates who came to cheer them on. The impact of my participation is that I am able to interact with a group of students I would not usually work with on a regular basis and further public diplomacy in the local area.
