    Learning log 3 - DL 27.2.2023 Assignment

    Make a submission

    The aim of the learning logs is to focus your learning and become aware of your thought processes. Learning log is your reflective writing on the topics presented during one week's contact sessions (two in total). It is a unique record of your thinking and learning during the course. Learning logs are NOT technical reports: "First topic was X and then Z", etc. The length of the learning log should be about 0.5 to 1 A4 page.

    We recommend you to write your log asap after each week's sessions. Then you can remember your thoughts much better. You can, for instance, think about the following topics:

    • What were your thoughts after the teaching session? 
    • What supported your learning during the teaching session?
    • What thoughts and insights did you get concerning the themes presented?
    • How can you apply these ideas to your own teaching?
    • Where would you like to focus on in the future (in your teaching)? etc.

    The logs are visible only for the teachers.
    

    This task will be automatically marked completed when you have uploaded it.

    Substitute assignment (if you were absent on Tuesday or Friday) - DL 6.3.2023

    If you missed both Tuesday and Friday: assignments 1 and 2.
    If you missed only Tuesday 21.2.: the assignment 1.
    If you missed only Friday 24.2.: the assignment 2.

    ASSIGNMENT 1

    Familiarize yourself with Rinna Toikka's Videos/slides. 
    Then write (approx. 1 page) about: Interaction in teaching.
    
    You can think about different contexts (online teaching, lecture halls, classroom settings, small group teaching & one-to-one feedback sessions) and some or all of the following questions:
    - How can we facilitate positive and constructive interaction?
    - How can we motivate & engage students?
    - How can we promote participation?

    ASSIGNMENT 2

    Familiarize yourself with the slides of the session 6. 

    Familiarize yourself especially with the four different"(university) teacher identities" and read about the strengths and weaknesses the other course participants saw for each identity (on the following slides). Reflect on your teacher identity: which identity do you identify yourself with? What are your strengths (and development points) from that perspective?  

    The visiting teachers discussed three themes: assessment, feedback and teaching methods. When you think about some good experiences as a learner, can you recall some good practices regarding these three themes? Pick up some relevant ideas and thoughts from them, which could support your own teaching. Reflect them how you could implement them in your course/teaching.

    Then write (approx. 1 page) about these topics.
