Mamal's Fifth Reflective Journal of PETA



            This week meeting of PETA, there was no lecturer's explanation session as in the other previous meeting. It was a bit tense for me because my class mates and I did the micro teaching that we have never done before. Even though I have experienced it in School Experience Program last along with my partner, but I felt that teaching in PETA class was different with teaching in the real class. I think there were some factore that caused it. First, it might be because in micro teaching we were assessed by bu Ine and the entire class members, and also the time was so brief and limited, so that I felt like I was a bit under pressure. The second factor was the lack if communication and preparation of my group. I felt that my group’s performance was not so good and it looked unprepared. There was a misunderstanding among us toward the micro teaching. From that, I got the lesson that we really have to be prepared or everything will not be alright.

            For me, doing micro teaching is similar with doing drama. I mean what we do is not real. Even though we do the real teaching, but the students, the class and another thing are not as real as in the school. In SEP, I felt that I did it well in the class, but then in the practice of micro teaching in the last meeting was a bit not satisfying. It felt like there was a little pressure when doing it. But then I saw the other groups presented their turn, and they were so good.  Then my group and I realized that we were so unprepared, and I hope that in final exam micro teaching I will exert every effort to make it deserves to be assessed.

            This micro teaching practice was so interesting because it gave me a lot of lesson to take. I learned from the other groups’ performance about many things. For example if I found an interesting way or idea of one group’s performance, I will try to apply that in my own way with my own style and idea. My expectation for final exam micro teaching is that I will maximize my work to prepare everything, with any one that I work with. I think learned to be prepared from now is not too late, because being prepared will be useful in the future when I become an educator.

  1. I agree with you. I was not satisfied with my microteaching. It was really different. I was quite nervous with my microteaching. But then, it is okay. It means that you and I learned something new then. As usual, your grammar is good, but then there are some mistakes in typing like "some factore". Okay, keep improving your skill! :)

    1. yap Ambar, that's the point. the important thing is that we can learned something from our lacking thing or from the others' performance.
      thank you so much for your correction. yap, you're right, sometimes (even often) I do mistake in typing a lot, but I have to be more careful later.

  2. Well, first I would like to clap hands and saying thank you for the writing :) We have same idea and feeling about last session, did the microteaching.

    Atually, I have read some of our friends writing and the idea or the message is almost the same. It is all about "PREPARATION". After I read, I think that what we call as preparation has a very big effect till the end of the thing that we do. It will influence the level of satisfaction that we get. If you as the teacher is not satisfy, then how about our students, right?

    So, my question is simple. In your opinion, what is the real meaning of "preparation" ?? Could you please briefly tell me what is the relation between effective teaching and preparation ??? Thank you :)

    1. thank you Raphita for your constuctive comment. it means a lot coming from you.
      I think preparation is an effort or process to make things become prepared and ready to use, to show, to present, etc. what do you say?
