Answers frame 1 Q.1   Micro teaching Q.2   short	Meaning and Definition of Micro-Teaching Meaning Micro teaching is a procedure in which a student teacher practices teaching with a reduce number of pupils in a reduced period of time with emphasis on a narrow and specific teaching skill. Definition • “Microteaching is a scaled down teaching encounter in class     size and time.”                                       - D.W.Allen(1966) • “Microteaching is defined as a system of controlled practice that     makes it possible to concentrate on specified teaching        behaviour and to practice teaching under controlled     conditions.”                          - D.W. Allen & A.W.Eve (1968) • “Microteaching is a scaled down teaching encounter in which a     teacher teaches a small unit to a group of five pupils for a     small period of 5 to 20 minutes.”        - L.C. Singh (1977)

Q.1    Microteaching is a highly …………………………….training device
Q.2    In micro teaching the pupil teacher practicing ………………….at a time
Q.3    ………………………. helps in improving, fixing and motivating learning

Frame 5

Answers frame 4 Q.1   individualized Q.2   one skill Q.3   immediate          feedback	Steps of Micro-Teaching The Micro-teaching programme involves the following steps: Step I:- Particular skill to be practiced is explained to the  pupil teacher in terms of the purpose and components of the skill with suitable examples. Step II:- The teacher trainer gives the demonstration of the skill in Micro-teaching in simulated conditions to the pupil teacher . Step III:-  The  pupil teacher plans a short lesson plan on the basis of the demonstrated skill for his/her practice. Step IV:-  The  pupil teacher teaches the lesson to a small group of pupils. His lesson is supervised by the supervisor and peers. Step V:-  On the basis of the observation of a lesson, the supervisor gives feedback to the  pupil teacher . The supervisor reinforces the instances of effective use of the skill and draws attention of the pupil teacher to the points where he could not do well. Step VI:-  In the light of the feed-back given by the supervisor, the  pupil teacher re-plans the lesson plan in order to use the skill in more effective manner in the second trial. Step VII:-  The revised lesson is taught to another comparable group of pupils. Step VIII:-  The supervisor observes the re-teach lesson and gives re-feed back to the  pupil teacher with convincing arguments and reasons. Step IX :- The ‘teach – re-teach’ cycle may be repeated several times till adequate mastery level is achieved.
Q.1      The teacher trainer gives the demonstration of the skill in Micro-teaching in             ……………………………….conditions to the teacher trainees.
Q.2      The supervisor observes the re-teach lesson and gives re-feed back to the  pupil             teacher with convincing ………………………….and reasons.
Q.3      The ……………………….cycle may be repeated several times till adequate mastery level             is achieved.

Answers frame 7 Q.1   6 Q2.   12 Q.3   6	Phases of Micro-teaching There are three phases of the Micro-teaching procedure. They are: 1. Knowledge Acquisition Phase. 2. Skill Acquisition Phase. 3. Transfer Phase of Micro-teaching. 1. Knowledge Acquisition Phase (Pre-Active Phase) It includes the activities such as;  Provide knowledge about teaching skills.  Observe the demonstration of teaching skill.  Analyze and discuss the demonstration of the teaching skill. 2. Skill Acquisition Phase (Inter-active Phase) It includes the activities such as; a) Planning and preparation of micro lesson for a skill.     Practicing the skill. b) Evaluation of the practiced skill (Feedback). c) Re-plan , Re-teach and re-feedback till the desired level of        skill is achieved. 3. Transfer Phase (Post –Active Phase)  a) Giving opportunity to use the mastered skill in normal class       room teaching.  b) Integrate the different skill practiced
