What Would You Do?

• Assessment– You have been teaching an intermediate reading

class to university students in their early 20s. Students have been reading graded readers and young adult literature. How can you assess their progress in a communicative, accurate way?

What Would You Do?

• Technology– It’s an election year in the US and you’ve been

talking about the election in your class. How could you integrate technology in a beneficial way? To what degree can/should it be integrated?

What Would You Do?

• Motivation– You are teaching a class of older teens: advanced

writing. They need to write five-paragraph academic essays. How can you frame the assignment so it’s interesting for them and they will be more likely to complete the assignment?

What Would You Do?

• Student-centered classroom– You are teaching a presentation skills class. How

can you structure the presentations throughout the semester to get maximum input form the students in all aspects of the assignment?

What Would You Do?

• Communicative approach– Think of some communicative ways to check

written-out homework assignments like grammar worksheets. Be creative!
