DEPARTMENTAL EXERCISE BASED ON MICROTEACHING AND ITS UTILITY IN PERSONAL TEACHING SKILL DEVELOPMENT OF TRAINEE TEACHERS
Journal Title: Journal of Evidence Based Medicine and Healthcare - Year 2014, Vol 1, Issue 2
Abstract
Microteaching is a scaled down teaching encounter in class size and time. The word micro is emphasized to imply that there is reduction in both size and duration of class. It is aimed at practicing one particular teaching skill and focuses on a single concept of teaching. It is a real time teaching simulator which aids in acquiring in depth knowledge of the core art of teaching. It scales down the complexities encountered in regular professional teaching. Observing a flawless teacher and trying to come up to that particular standard is what most novice teachers try to do. Microteaching helps to eliminate common errors in teaching and improves both, in class teaching performance and class managing skills in junior as well as experienced teachers. In India, this powerful teaching improvement tool is rather underutilized and if practice of microteaching is made mandatory in all professional courses related to teaching it will produce versatile, dynamic and better teachers in India
