My Intervention Point: Time management
Based on my 4 Journal entries, my intervention point is about “Time Management”. In this sense, my supports are the following:
“…students do not get lost in the activities and the pacing and time will be better handled…” (Journal Entry 1)
“…Students were working hard but unfortunately the time was not enough…” (Journal Entry 2)
“…Students did not have enough time to prepare and develop well organized scripts and there was one group missing to perform…” (Journal Entry 2)
“…In this opportunity, the biggest trouble I had was related to time…” (Journal Entry 2)
“…Time was not enough to develop the complete workshop and students could not develop the comic strip at the end as was expected…” (Journal Entry 4)
My action Plan:
After focusing my attention on my Journal Entries, I think the best way to handle and tackle “Time management” as my intervention point is by:
1. Being aware that instructions in the activities were clear and understood. In this sense, students would not get lost in the activities and consequently the time would be better handled.
2. Being aware of the time and provide students with an “extra minute” to organize their performances in a proper way.
3. Finally, as a general conclusion, I realized the amount of activities were a trouble. I am totally sure, these difficulties could be overcome by trying to take the most important and meaningful activities to guarantee a success in the lessons.
Dear Hans,
ReplyDeleteI think your proposal to tackle the problem of time management is well supported and coherent. I would suggest an crtitical and reflective evaluation of the results of your corrective actions.

Hello hans,
ReplyDeleteI think your reflection in order to take actions according to time managment are right, because we as teachers must think about the time students would spend doing different activities according to their pace in the learning process.

Dear Hans Humberto
ReplyDeleteI like the way you set the possible action plan to solve the difficulties presented. I'd like to highlight the importance of selecting the most meaningful activities which contribute to your lesson objectives. Also, reflection in and on action would definitely help you get knowledge to handle those constraints.
Dear Hans
ReplyDeleteThis is one of the most common problems that we as teachers face in our practice. Your proposal for an action plan to solve this kind of problem is appropiate. I really liked all the activities to tackle it but could you please tell me if you have thought about the implementation of possible strategies or instruments to confirm the effectiveness of such activities?
Thank you
