Group Work: brainstorming
Review
Brainstorm about what they have learned and ways to
improve learning
Your lessons are well paced and provide students with opportunities to consolidate their learning
and be involved in an active way. Well done. I like the way you have revised and revisited prior
learning in different ways and slowly and carefully introduced new learnings based on previous
understandings. Be really mindful of your assessments and ensure that they are going to be
suitable to provide the information that you need. Some of the presented ideas look a little vague
and I am unsure of the effectiveness of gaining useful data as they presently are suggested.
Part B:
The choice of learning outcomes is based on Year 7 and Year 8 achievement standards for
second language learners. The basic aim of this lesson sequence is for students to interact in
familiar contexts to exchange personal information and seek clarification about age with new
words and phrases while reviewing and consolidating prior knowledge about personal pronouns,
positive and negative adverbs (yes and no), and the verb of identification and existence (be) at the
same time. Moreover, they will consolidate their knowledge about the word order of Chinese
sentences by making new sentences with reference to previously-learned sentence structures and
their differences from English sentences. They will become more familiar with Pinyin, tone

Page 7 of 16

EMT617 Planning and assessing language learning: LOTE and/or TESOL


Yang LIU

Assessment 2

syllables and character features without the pressure of putting them in writing. Furthermore, they
will deepen their intercultural understanding by learning about number preferences, calendars and
zodiac signs and becoming aware of cultural differences and their influence on people and
communication. In general, students will be able to progress in language learning through a
pattern of words, phrases, sentences to intercultural understanding, and consolidate their new
knowledge by constantly building connections with prior knowledge and construct meanings for
themselves in relevant contexts. I can see this evident in your sequence.
Student diversity is considered in terms of design, pedagogy and assessment. The
principle of Universal Design for Learning (UDL) with assistive technologies is adopted to allow
multiple ways of representation (flashcards, hand signs and video watching), engagement (Hachi
Pachi, jigsaw puzzles and detective games) and expression (oral quiz, group reflection and video
blog) to cater for students different learning needs and styles (Alnahdi, 2014; Ashman, 2015;
Hall, Strangman & Meyer, 2003; Reid, 1987). Besides, teaching is informed by language
acquisition theory and sociocultural theory (Krashen, 1982; Mitchell, Myles, & Marsden, 2013).
Pedagogy like direct instruction, explicit teaching, heuristic teaching, PPP model and group work
is used to provide adequate input and opportunities for students to support each other in learning
(Harmer, 2009; Killen, 2013). Total Physical Response and communicative approaches are
commonly used (Al Harrasi, 2014; Jabeen, 2014). Moreover, diverse assessment activities
are employed to cater for different learning styles, evaluate students performance and create
opportunities for students to demonstrate their learning in different forms. Since it is the
beginning of Chinese language learning for second language learners, their Chinese entry levels
are similar, but with the progress of learning, diverse strategies will be used to assess their
language levels. this aspect needs to be a little clearer in the sequence.
Language learning in this sequence is closely related to the general capabilities in the

Page 8 of 16

EMT617 Planning and assessing language learning: LOTE and/or TESOL


Yang LIU

Assessment 2

Australian Curriculum: Chinese (ACARA, 2015). First, resources, classroom routines and
activities are conducive to enhance students literacy including multiple literacy, classroom oracy
and critical literacy, which will in turn benefit students English literacy and critical thinking
abilities (Campbell & Green, 2006). Besides, number games are simple, but are conducive to
inspiring students interest and increasing their numeracy by reinforcing concepts such as number
and time (ACARA, 2015). Moreover, the task of creating and posting videos on the online class
blog encourages creativity and hones students skills in Information and Communication
Technology (ICT). In addition, activities that inform students about different cultural practices
such as number preferences, lunar calendar and zodiac signs will increase students awareness of
Chinese culture and promote intercultural understanding, which are beneficial to the cohesion of
Australian society, understanding of cross-curriculum priority (Australia and Asia), and
promotion of world peace (Dooly & Unamuno, 2009; ahin, 2011).
The selection and uses of resources are determined by learning outcomes, student
diversity, designing principles, teaching pedagogy and purposes of linking to the broader
curriculum. Flashcards, hand gestures, jigsaw puzzles, YouTube videos and online resources are
adopted to provide scaffolding for learning and cater for the needs of visual, auditory, tactile and
kinesthetic learners (Gibbons, 2002; Reid, 1987). They can also enhance literacy (such as
multiple literacy and critical literacy), numeracy, and ICT skills, and promote intercultural
understanding. Besides, the use of various resources is also determined by the features of the
Chinese language and the need to hold students interest. The Chinese language greatly differs
from Indo-European languages with its tone and character systems and there are many dropouts
of Chinese language programs due to its difficulty (Orton, 2010; Orton, Tee, Gong,
McCulloch, Zhao & McRae, 2012). Therefore, it is crucial to use diverse resources and
select resources that are interesting and relevant to students life to add more fun to learning,

Page 9 of 16

Assessment 2

engage them and keep them motivated and interested.


The assessment strategy is based on student diversity and the UDL principle to provide
informative feedback to the teacher and students and promote students abilities to carry out selfassessment and self-reflection to benefit future learning. Formative assessments such as
pronunciation practices, various games, and brainstorming activities are informal, ongoing and
continuous evaluation of students speaking, listening and understanding of Chinese characters.
They are part of instruction as well as diagnostic tools to provide timely feedback and guidance
to teaching and learning (Swearingen, 2002). The summative assessment is a video on the online
class blog that features standard-referenced and product-oriented evaluation (Brady & Kennedy,
2012). It is used to gauge the overall result of students learning and provide standards for selfassessment and foster metacognition (Rosenholtz, 1991; Swearingen, 2002). In general,
assessment is done in diverse and interesting activities that are designed to add fun and reduce
difficulty to Chinese language learning. This is good to see written as it is it gives me a much
clearer picture.
Sharing and reporting the learning are based on the principle of being informative,
constructive and reflective. Reporting features student reporting and teacher reporting and is
mostly done in group activities (Brady & Kennedy, 2012). First, students are required to share
and report their learning in various meaningful contexts driven by the needs of communication.
They approximate languages with and support one another in various communicative activities
(Flege, 1980). They also brainstorm in groups at the end of lessons to summarise and reflect on
learning as reference and guidance. Besides, students provide a formal reporting of individual
learning and their peers learning with the assistance of ICT in the summative activity. The rubric
clarifies criteria and understanding for all parties, and individual learners, peers and the teacher
all give feedback according to the rubric. Through this activity, they gain a better understanding

Assessment 2

of the achievement standards and the performances of themselves and their peers against these
standards, which is conducive to promoting their abilities of assessment and reflection.

This is a very thorough response to the topic. Your rationale provides a very clear and detailed
support to the learning sequence and certainly indicates to me you capacity to provide learners with
valuable learning experiences. You also exhibit a good knowledge of what you can expect of children
at the nominated age and level of ability.

Your activities are interesting and as a result should provide you with a sound basis to develop
childrens understandings.

Your rationale is well supported by literature that gives depth to your discussion and shows me that
you have a growing understanding of pedagogies for appropriate Languages teaching and learning
experiences.

I would like to thank you for your input and work in this unit over the two years. It is sometimes
very difficult to complete subjects on line both from your perspective and from mine, but I hope
you have been able to gain some worthwhile knowledge and some understandings that you can
take with you into the Languages classroom. Languages teaching can sometimes be lonely as
you may be the only person within a school and it is really important that your voice can be heard
and you do have an ability to be able to articulate your learning area well. My advice is to you is
to join the MLTAT ( if you are in Tas) or a language specific group as these organisations can be
a great support to you in your early years of teaching and often can provide some valuable
professional learning activities.
