 was brilliant – who did get her 6 with this, too)

Other stories that I have recently used:

mankind.doc  machine.pdf  store of the worlds.pdf  painful case Joyce.pdf  banal-story.pdf

Post all your questions about the diploma lesson here:

It's difficult to ask questions when you don't know much about the subject. So please start with the basics, not forgetting useful tips and tricks, of course.

Could you also talk about the 15-minute exam mentioned in the document above?

Cheers,

Mark

Andrea H. :

1. Do students know that we are teaching a ‘diploma lesson’?

2. Can we use the lesson plan model, which we are usually working with?

(The sample lesson plan didn’t seem very transparent to me)

3. What is most important: smoothness of the lesson, methods, material, content, realisation ….

I mean, how do you define a good diploma lesson? :)

Marion:

What makes a diploma lesson fail?

How long in advance do we know what we are required to teach?
