Redyta Amalia, 2010110022 (1st Meeting @PETA course)

Tuesday, 20 September 2011. I have a new great class with new lecturer. In course Principles Effective Teaching and Assessment (PETA), I can get more than the theory, and this course very important to understand. PETA is very interesting course, because I can share my experience with my friends about effective teacher, and we did very active learning. I mean that it’s very difficult to be a great teacher (inspired, creative, and innovative). But, after the first class, I think I can find the solution in this course, to find easy and effective ways how to transfer my knowledge to my students. PETA will be more effective for me when I enjoy it. I can’t feel bored in this course, actually the active learning made our class more enjoyable. Every method to teaching and assessment that use in this course are very effective, innovative and applicable. It will be useful for everybody who wants to be either a great teacher or a good teacher. My lecturer, her name is Ms. Lydia. She is very friendly, care, up to date about the issues, respectful, and knew how to find out our focus. In my opinion, she has characteristic of an effective teacher.
