[nobe-l] lesson plan presentation

[Ashley Bramlett]

Hi Elizabeth,
I am not studying to teach as I got discouraged from that in my undergrad 
degree. Which subject do you want to teach? In an increasing multi culture 
setting, we need foreign languages for our workforce. So, I imagine your 
classes will be popular.

As to your question, I agree with you. Given you have limited space, time 
and flexibility in the environment, I think asking someone to turn slides 
isn't a big deal. As you said,
you want to assure that people see you and have a smooth presentation.
Also, I suppose you do not have jaws on this pc you need to interact with to 
turn slides.
I see what people are saying about independence, but I believe we have to be 
interdependent on people sometimes to let our abilities shine. In this 
instance, you have a limited time for the presentation; you do not want to 
worry about the technology or where you are standing in relation to the 
board. You want to focus on delivering your presentation.

When you teach I'm sure you will be independent by setting up your equipment 
or finding other means to present rather than a projector. For instance, 
handouts or transparencies.

Good luck.
Ashley

I'm very glad for you, but this is a classroom setting in which I have no
control.  Iam literally stuck in a corner between the desk and the white
board.  I am not assured that people can see me, and I think I need to adapt
the situation accordingly, don't you think?

I'm just telling you that 5 minutes or 50 you need to get your degree the
same way other people get their degree. I never had an accommodation special
to me, and when I graduated I had 2 teaching offers. I was in the school
paper, and did many talks for people earlier in the program. One day you
will need to do a 5 minute talk in a staff meeting and it wouldn't look good
if you couldn't do it.

But the thing is, the presentation is only five minutes long.  I'm not doing
an entire lesson, so it's not realistic.

You need to do the whole thing. If you want people to think you can teach on
the same playing field as them you need to do the tech. You are going to
have this same problem in the classroom so you should start now.

Okay, everybody, I have an interesting dilemma, and I want to get an
opinion.  I am taking a teaching methods class for teaching a foreign
language and each student is tequired to present a lesson plan.not the
entire lesson, just about five minutes or so, just giving a summary of the
lesson and the activities and that sort ofthing.

As part of the lesson, the class must see on the projector the lesson while
the student talks about it.  I have been watching other students move back
and forth from the computer as they operate it and then move so the other
students can see better and talk.  Do any of you see anything wrong with me
having another student operate the computer so that I don't feel so confined
when I set up my own technology and so that I have that freedom of movement
and so that I am assured that others in the room can see me?
