Does anyone have a good suggestion for Chris? Please post.
Hi Ben,In my Seminar in Research and Theory in FL Education graduate class my professor would like me to do a lecture and demonstration, or as I call it a ‘mini-workshop’, on TPRS. I’m probably the only person within a 30 mile radius that is really into TPRS so I guess that makes me the most “knowledgeable” person around. I’ll have about 2 and a half hours. What exactly should I do and cover? How should I structure this? It’s my chance to sell TPRS to about 10 FL teachers, 9 of whom are not from the United States and have never heard of TPRS. Most of the teachers in this class teach either Arabic or Chinese, which brings a different challenge since they use characters and not our alphabet.
I’m just wondering how to go about doing the lecture and the demonstration, what points do I want to cover, what structures should I choose to demonstrate the method? I will add to this that I will be doing this workshop two days after attending a Susan Gross workshop, so hopefully some of her guru knowledge will rub off on me and be fresh on my mind for my class.
Thanks!
Chris
