Tasks: deposit your quesions about the Diploma lesson right here (no click, on THIS page underneath this line of text):
For general reference about IGB-education procedures and regulations:
Carmen:
How long in advance do we know what we have to teach in the Diploma lesson?
The average in English is 10 days, it might be up to 14 days in advance.
Could you describe a good and a bad example of a Diploma lesson from your experience?Why was this lesson good/bad?
(in session)
Martina: Is it always the Maturaclasses that are taught in the Diploma lesson?
If you are "Hauptfach" you will get a Matura class (or a good near Mautura class) with a literary text task. If you are "Nebenfach" you will get a lower class with a grammar topic, or, if it is an intermediate class, a newspaper article to discuss. If you are "Monofach" you get one lesson of each.
Will we be assigned to the teacher/classes for the Diploma lesson or can we influence this in any way?
You cannot influence that, yes, you will be assigned to the class and teacher. The only thing you can do is block certain periods of time (which results in a longer time for you to wait for the exam).
What theoretical knowledge should we have? Are there any books that we should read (such as HTT or LT)?
We will rely on the books that we used in this course, i.e. HTT, LT, Literature in the language classroom. Those who did the 3rd module with me also the books we used there.
The oral exam of 15 minutes (IGB Wegleitung p. 16) isn't the same as the colloquium, is it?
For MAS-SHE students there are TWO oral 15 minutes tests: 1 exclusively about the upcoming or taught lesson, the other exclusively about general matters of Fachdidaktik English (what we deal with in this course, the books that we use).
Is it one or two diploma lessons in English? (if English is the main subject)
If you have two different subjects that you teach there is one lesson in each. If you choose English as "Monofach", there are two lessons in English, one a higher class the other a lower class, on the same morning – plus two "lesson-colloquiums" plus the "Fachdidaktik-colloquium".
