Oral Presentation Skills: A Duoethnographic Study
Reflective practice is deemed effective in building a community of teachers. Duoethnography can be used for reflective practice as it involves two or more researchers juxtaposing their life histories to analyze a phenomenon (Norris & Sawyer, 2016). In this presentation, two university-level English language instructors will analyze the use of oral presentation in English language learning by discussing their past language learning experiences, present teaching beliefs, and how these beliefs have influenced their classroom practice.
PIE SIG Forum
The Performance in Education (PIE) SIG forum will feature a panel discussion with a number of PIE practitioners. The focus of this year’s forum is on student motivation, teacher/student feedback, and teacher/student (self- and peer-) evaluation, and how these come together to support communities of teachers and students even in the midst of Emergency Remote Teaching (ERT). Join us for an interactive, enriching, educative and practical panel discussion!
