 * || = ** Stage 1 ANALYSE ** =

What will be your focus for this project in 2011? Our focus for this project in 2011 is to see whether by using more of the target language in the Year 7 to 12 Chinese classroom will motivate or demotivate our students. In addition, we also would like to explore whether to bring in the ICT skills into our classes will motivate our students more. || Timeline for 2011 A student survey will be created in order to gauge the confidence & competency of students' language learning under the areas of: -prior knowledge (how long have you studied Chinese?) -management/organisation (discipline & behaviour) -classroom instructions -classroom greetings -informal conversation -classroom discussion -feedback language The survey needs to be done in the middle of each term.
