Microteaching
It is scaled down teaching
a. It reduced the content (number of unit)

The four aspects of teaching are reduced. So it is known as microteaching
Procedure for practice of skill in microteaching
Step I
Discussion of teaching skills
Define the concept of teaching skills to the student.
The teacher educator discuss the skills with teacher trainees.
Teacher educator give knowledge about the teaching skills to the teacher trainees with examples
Step II

Step III

Sub step I
Planning the micro lesson
After discussion and demonstration the teacher trainee prepared a micro lesson about a particular teaching skills.
Duration is 5-10 minutes & concentrate in one skill.
One single unit take & session is known as plan session.
Substep II
Teaching the microlesson

Take a small unit of lesson & take a class of 5-10 minutes, one skill by the teacher trainees.
It was supervised by the fellow trainee and teacher educators through observation
Supervisor use a performa and note down the observation in the performa.
The behaviour component is present in the performa.



No Components of stimulus variation ½ minutes interval Total
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
1 Teacher movement / / 2
2 Teacher gesture / 1
3 Change in sensory focus / / 2
4 Change in speech pattern / 1
5 Pupil talk / 1

Substep III

Reteach -6minutes
Refeedback -6 minutes
-36 minutes
Step IV

Little more than that of microteaching session
Link practice Microteaching
2or 3 skills Only one skill
Little bigger unit Small unit
20 students 5-10 students
Only real situation Real or artificial situation

Duration of link practice & microteaching
Teach - 20 minutes 6 minutes
Feedback - 10 minutes 6 minutes
Re plan - 25 minutes 12 minutes
Re teach - 20 minutes 6 minutes
Re feedback - 10 minutes 6 minutes
Total –85 minutes 36 minutes

Step V
Full class teaching
Linking all skills practiced from microteaching and link practice. Concentrate all skills, real classroom situation, no. of students 40-45, duration 45 minutes, bigger unit.
Step VI
Evaluation
Evaluating the performance of teacher trainee in the full class teaching whether he is able to transfer skills from microteaching and link practice.
Advantages of microteaching
a. Microteaching employs real teaching for the purpose of developing skills.
b. It is more effective in modifying teacher behaviour
c. It is an effective technique for transfer of teaching competencies to classroom
Limitations of microteaching

a. For successful implementation, microteaching requires competent and suitably trained teacher educators.
b. It is very time consuming.
c. It is skill oriented, content is not emphasized
d. Microteaching alone may not be adequate. It needs to be supplemented and integrated with other teaching techniques.
