Reflection on the group microteaching

Our topic for the microteaching is introduction on slope. The overall structure is organized. We started with a hook relating the audience's experience in hiking. We then started the explorative activity and the formal "lecture" to sum up the learning outcomes from the activity. Since the lesson is designed for grade 10 students and our audience is actually university students with math background, we should have remove some repeated examples during demonstration so that we don't need to rush in the end. However, we did time ourselves and we ended up finishing this lesson in 18 minutes (there was a technical glitch at the beginning where none of us can share the screen). We prepared some additional worksheets but we didn't get to present those because of limitation in time. The example we used to illustrate slope as steepness of a hill is very visual and easy to understand. This might encourage student to pay more attention to the lesson because they can relate themselves to the real life example. During the lesson we tried to have the audience engaged by constantly asking questions and respond to their answers. Overall, we had good rapport with the audience and all of as were confident when we were presenting. Different from teaching individually, we learned that co-teachings need not only the quality of content delivered but also the cooperation between the co-teachers on how to deliver the content so that students' learning experience can be enhanced.
