My own observations from your teaching practice

Share your ideas, please

PUN Sai Wing 5/1/2004

My own ideas (well done)

• Grades attained: from B- to B+• Presentations including demo and explanation

skills are of excellent level• Almost 9 out of 10 used PowerPoint. Some of

them are well-designed and full of graphics or videos– Very few chalkboard skills seem. A case happened

when the projector was not functioning• All have good academic knowledge about IT and

application software• All shows enthusiasm in teaching

My own points (need improvements)

• Questioning happened in few cases– A case happened when the projector was not functionin

g– The teacher was aware that the students had lots of ex

periences in using computers

• Individual difference found in some classes but there are no or very few considerations: treatments and handling procedures

• Alternative teaching methods for application software are needed (to be further explored)

The teaching of application software

• Dictionary approach– Teachers directly explain the functions of the software– Like a verbal user manual– The features taught might not be used by the students

• Exemplary approach– providing good examples for students to

follow/explore– Good: authentic and interesting
