Reflection on group micro-teaching

We did well in terms of time management and organization of the lesson parts. I think this group micro-teaching lesson shows much room for improvement. The beginning of the lesson and the hook were not demonstrated clearly. I would bring in some visuals such as ads from magazines that show percentages to relate the lesson to everyday life. The lesson development or examples of problems were good but I feel they could be more student-centered. Perhaps, the calculations can be some certain characteristics taken from the group of students so they will feel more involved. I think the activity went pretty well as students were interested to find out predictions of their lifespan. Also, we were able to generate further follow-up questions for discussion to make up the remaining time. See pictures of peer- and self-evaluation forms here.
