Hi Everyone,
Next week, in an effort to help every student achieve a score for Criterion A, as well as to get some important information about your project, I will be interviewing in EAL class this week.
You are to choose three interview questions from the list below and will have 3-4 days to prepare your answers. However, you cannot read anything during the interview, you must SPEAK only. Also, I may ask you other questions if I feel that you are not giving enough information in your answers, so be prepared to answer them.
The interviews will be recorded and posted on both your blog, as well as mine.
Below is a list of ten questions. You will choose THREE questions to answer and let me know what they are. Then, you will write a blog post explaining your choice.
Questions to choose from:
1.) If you could choose your topic again, would you choose the same one, or a different one? Explain why.
2.) If you could re-do any part of your project so far, what would you change and why?
3.) Can you describe some things that you did well, and some things that you could have done better during the project?
4.) Can you describe some problems that you had when completing your tasks for this project? What did you do to try to solve them?
5.) Was this topic easier or harder than you expected it to be when you chose it? Explain why.
6.) What challenges or difficulties did you face during the Knowledge, Comprehension and Application parts of the unit? (This needs three separate answers for each part)
7.) How well did you work on your own, meeting deadlines and getting your work done independently? Explain why you did well, or why you needed to improve.
8.) What have to you learned about yourself as a learner, and about the WAY that you learn through this unit?
9.) Do you think that you have successfully shown your learning through the tasks that you've completed during this unit so far? Explain your answer.
10.) If you were to give a lesson to other students about the best way to learn and to show learning, what would you tell them? Be specific and give details.

Title: UOI Interview With Ms. Gamage
Labels: ESL, UOI, Interview, Criterion A
Post:
In this post, you will:
* Describe the three questions that you chose for the interview.
* You will then EXPLAIN why you chose EACH of those three questions (so there should be three explanations in this part)
* Describe what you will do to prepare your answers, STEP BY STEP.
* Predict how you think you will do when giving your interview, and why.
This post should be about two short paragraphs long, and should have good explanations and details for every part.
PLEASE ASK ME if you have any questions at all about this interview.
I hope you enjoy this activity!
