【社群活動】 閒聊EMI The big issue in “Small Talk” : EMI Sharing

      The EMI community's second sharing welcomed Miss Lu Qin-Yu from the National Kaohsiung University of Science and Technology on October 17. She shared her teaching experience related to "Small Talk" and introduced innovative teaching methods, offering valuable insights for developing the EMI education field.

      Ms. Lu centered her presentation on the topic of "Small Talk." To set the stage, she initiated the session by having participating teachers introduce themselves briefly and interactively. She then kickstarted the session with a carefully selected video. Students were encouraged to fill out questions related to the video content, promoting an interactive learning method that fostered active student engagement and enhanced their listening skills.

      In addition, Ms. Lu incorporated various activities during the teaching session, including group discussions, role-playing, and practical small talk exercises. These activities contributed to improving students' English communication skills and encouraged teamwork and problem-solving abilities. During her presentation, Ms. Lu emphasized using the IBC (Introduction-Body-Conclusion) teaching framework, which added structure and organization to the teaching process, helping students better comprehend and apply the knowledge they gained.

      After the sharing session, Professor Bertha, who was also in attendance, showed her amazement at Ms. Lu's teaching methods. She noted that within two to three hours, Ms. Lu managed to maintain such high levels of enthusiasm, leaving a lasting impression. This teaching style captured students' attention and deepened their engagement in the learning process, proving to be pivotal for the success of EMI classrooms.

EMI社群的第二次分享會於10月17日邀請了來自國立高雄科技大學的Miss Lu Qin-Yu。她分享了與「閒聊」相關的教學經驗，並介紹了創新的教學方法，為發展EMI教育領域提供了寶貴的見解。

Miss Lu的演講主題圍繞「閒聊」展開。她開始了一個互動式的自我介紹環節，讓參與的教師們簡短介紹自己。接著，她精心挑選了一段視頻，啟動了教學活動。學生們被鼓勵填寫與視頻內容相關的問題，促進了一種互動式的學習方法，激發了他們的積極參與，並增強了他們的聽力技能。

此外，Miss Lu在教學過程中還融入了各種活動，包括小組討論、角色扮演和實際的閒聊練習。這些活動有助於提升學生的英語溝通能力，並鼓勵了團隊合作和解決問題的能力。在她的演講中，Miss Lu強調使用IBC（引言-主體-結論）的教學框架，為教學過程增添了結構和組織，幫助學生更好地理解和應用所學知識。

分享會結束後，現場的Bertha教授對Miss Lu的教學方法深感驚訝。她指出，在短短兩三個小時內，Miss Lu能保持如此高的熱情，給人留下了深刻的印象。這種教學風格吸引了學生的注意力，加深了他們在學習過程中的投入，對EMI課堂的成功至關重要。
