What is “delayed dictation”?
Instead of getting students to transcribe immediately what you say, or what a partner says, you can enforce a 10 second delay so that students have to keep running over in their heads what they have heard. To learn more of this appraoch click on the logo below.

A 'Model' Lesson
The following Indonesian lesson (in four parts) was filmed at Macarthur Anglican School in Camden, New South Wales as part of The APEC Lesson Study Project. It is worth noting the variety of techniques used by the teacher to sustain student interest over the course of the lesson. Did she nail it? Was there room for improvement? What could she have done to better engage some of the students?

Total Physical Response (TPR)
This video helps English speakers understand what it's like to be in the role of a learner when the instructor is using Total Physical Response (TPR). In the first part, Whole Body Movements, the instructor teaches English-speaking adults to carry out verbal commands in Indonesian related to standing, sitting, walking, and turning around. In the second part, Expanding Vocabulary, the instructor uses different verbal commands to teach the Indonesian words for body parts and two pieces of furniture. When he is sure the learners understand these spoken words, the instructor begins to teach them to read the same words. The methodology or guiding principal of TPR is that people learn languages best by watching and listening before being producing language themselves. Many of us have probably used TPR when playing 'Simon Says' or 'Simon Berkata' with our classes.
The Accelerative Integrated (AIM) Method
Much has been written on this innovative "new" Canadian (Toronto) approach to teaching French in recent years. The problem for other languages is that the accompanying resources (songs, raps and so on) have only been developed in French and some serious time (and money) needs to be allocated to develop these resources in other languages and train teachers in the method before you can truly claim to be teaching the AIM methodology and not a modified version of Total Physical Response (TPR). Fortunately for Indonesian teachers, Julia Bates from St Catherine's College in Proserpine (North Queensland) has taken the first tentative steps towards introducing the AIM methodology into her teaching. The document below provides an introduction with instructions for at least three lessons using the methodology. Thank you very much, Julia, for sharing your groundbreaking work. Along with this, I have discovered a PowerPoint Presentation providing a brief summary of the guiding principles of the methodology. If anyone else has any resources supporting the AIM methodology in Indonesian, please do not hesitate to share these with the wider community of Indonesian teachers through this website.

Professional Reading for Language Teachers
In the course of our teaching we occasionally come across a handout or a professional development activity that has left so much of an impression on us that we ask for a copy of the presentation to add to our store of professional knowledge. The following are a selection of such handouts or presentations that I have stored away for future reference. In most instances I have been able to acknowledge the presenter so I apologize in advance for the odd occasion that I am unable to identify either the presenter of the context of the presentation.
