  TASK

  1. Watch the video and write three key ideas about constructive alignment and how this relates to your own teaching context. Bullet points are fine.

  2. Use the lesson plan template to plan two consecutive classroom sessions. On each lesson plan you must include:

  • 2-3 learning outcomes that link to the course descriptor (note: a learning outcome is written By the end of this session the learners will be able to list....  label...  explain... demonstrate... answer... calculate...  select... You choose according to what you have decided your learners will be doing in the lesson)

  • one warm up activity 
  • one doing activity 
  • one feedback activity 

  selected from the previous section called "What is active learning?"  (You might have other activities you like to use instead which is fine). Here is a model of a lesson plan

  3. Carry out the lessons.

  4. Make some notes on the evaluation section of your lesson plan about things that worked well and things that you would change or adapt for next time.
