I read somewhere, probably here, that TPRS teachers should volunteer to go into classes at universities to do sections of the methods courses. I haven’t yet because I just don’t have the time, but I do think it would be a good idea. Most methods class don’t do justice to TPRS and many don’t mention it at all….
On a side note, they just announced two weeks ago that our flagship campus, the University of Maine at Orono, is recommending eliminating the World Language major…..
Thank you Steven for this advice, I will certainly contact local institutions of higher ed soon about this!
I taught a TPRS demo in two methods classes this semester at local universities, and it was very well received. I hope to remain in their rotation and to spread out to more. I also did a demo in a grad class I’m taking to get an ESL/ENL cert. (Since we spent a whole 2-hr class on Krashen…) Both were really fun–it is so much easier to get adults to ‘play’ than the kids. It was a real boost to my skills as well, as I wanted to demo it ‘right.’
Could you describe in detail how you ran your demo? So glad it was successful for you!
Stephen,
You trained with Cindy and Rosa??? Holy cow no wonder you are so fantabulous. Anybody who has a chance to spend time in the language department of Sprayberry High School of Marietta, GA, will come away inspired. They are like one big family of professional development!
Thanks for mentioning their names!
Susie
