As the name implies, “micro-teaching” is a microscopic or small version of the process you go
A micro-teaching session should be a complete instructional segment and should deal with topics
that will provide new learning for the other participants. The instructor should not ask the
participants to play a role (e.g. “ Imagine that you are in the third month of a class dealing with
quantum mechanics”) or to assume an imaginary identity, we just don’t have time in 15 minutes or 30
minutes!
Prepare a 30-minute lesson plan that includes the following five key elements:
Bridge-In: Explains the value of the lesson to the learner and provides motivation
Objective: What must the learner do? Under what conditions? How well?
Pre-test: Identifies any prior knowledge and whether or not the learner can already accomplish the objective
Participatory Learning: The learner is actively involved in the learning process as soon as possible
