 Make a presentation about how to create the lesson by those apps/ websites.

III. Assessment
Students can play games and complete exercises while learning the ins and outs of the language, even if they are far away from a real teacher
or school. With thousands of contributions from teachers, students can take advantage of exercises that suit their needs. Users are allowed to
choose their level of difficulty in grammar and vocabulary quizzes, and even crossword puzzles. Students can learn on their own time and
tailor a program to fit their needs. YouTube and Powtoon allow the student to hear the English language being spoken. 

ASSIGNMENT 2: WORDCARD – WORDSHEET

I. Description
-A worksheet is a page (or two) of tasks, distributed to each student to do either in class or at home, intended to be written on, and usually
taken in by the teacher to be checked. Teacher-made tests can be seen as a specific kind of worksheet.
-Workcards are made in sets, each card offering a different, fairly short task. They are not written on: a student does one card, writing answers
on a separate piece of paper or in a notebook, and then exchanges it for another, working through as many of the set as there is time for.
Answers are often available for self-checking at some central location in the room, or on the back of the card itself.
-Workcards are permanent and re-usable; worksheets are disposable - though of course further copies can be made. Workcards take more
effort and time to produce, but they are also more attractive to look at and work on (colours and cut-out pictures can be used), and more
individualized: students have a choice as to which cards they do, and in which order; and the range of tasks available can be much more
varied. In fact, the workcard lesson is a rudimentary self-access session, and can be developed into a fully individualized program by varying
the number and type of tasks provided.

III. Assessment
Worksheets and work cards for students suit all age groups, as these can be upgraded easily they are suitable for different capabilities and
applications of each individual child depending on their learning needs. Worksheets and work cards are great resources to enhance a student's
intellect, imagination, handwriting and fine motor skills.
 ASSIGNMENT 3- MAKING A TEACHING VIDEO
I. Description

The storytelling-oriented video is designed to deal with the main grammar point (the second conditional) in
section 3: A closer look 2 of Unit 7 for grade-8 students. The product featuring three main characters (the planet
Green, the Earth and the teacher) in an environmental-pollution-related context serves as a means of illustration
to help students have a thorough understanding of the Second Conditional and distinguish it from the First
Conditional.
II. Procedure
1. Analyze
There are four main parts in making a video teaching a lesson. The first one is making a short animated video to
lead-in the lesson and to arouse students’ interest. The second one is recording a video of a teacher teaching the
lesson with power point slides to help students taking note. The last part is combining all the parts into a
complete video and finalizing it.
2. Procedure
I. Animated video
The first thing we did to create an animated video was to choose the main theme for the video and we decided on
the environment, specifically the environmental pollution. Then, we compose a story related to this issue and
choose materials such as pictures, sounds to visualize the character and illustrate the story. In the end, we put all
the aforementioned materials in Adobe Premiere and add the script to make the video.
b. Teaching video
Regarding the teaching process during video, there are three main tasks: a lesson plan, a power point file and a
teaching video. A lesson plan is prepared to the most detailed, correlating to the learning materials presented in
the power point file. For example, the examples used in the lesson should be related to the lead-in video. Power
point slides are based precisely on the lesson plan to highlight the main points of the lesson, making it easier for
students to follow the lesson. When we have a well-prepared lesson plan and a power point file. It’s the process
of recording the teacher teaching the lesson to finish the teaching video section. Some notice while recording is
about the background as well as sound quality in which we conduct filming. In particular, the teacher should
stand in front of a green or solid color background in order to make it easier to edit the video later on. 
 c. Combining videos
After the animated video and the teaching one are completed, we turned to Adobe Premiere again to combine these two videos and the powerpoint
slides. After that, we worked on the design of the final video and edited it as planned. Ultimately, we added subtitles to the video so that students
can understand the lesson thoroughly.
 3. Teaching steps
Introduction Greet Ss to class and introduce the next scene.

Lead-in to the lesson of Second
Conditional
+ Arouse Ss’ interest by showing them a video story of the Earth in which the Earth shares about the harmful
actions that people do to the Environment and how much the Earth suffers.
+ Ask Ss to give solutions to the problems of the Earth and tell them to learn the lesson carefully to gain
ideas.
+ Do a review of First Conditional by asking Ss about a saying of the character Planet Green in the story 
Example:
“If people grow more plants and do not litter, the environment will be greener and cleaner.” 

and reminding them of the usage of First Conditional. 

+ Relate to the situation of the Earth that people do not stop littering and so the Earth is not green and clean. 
+ Say that the thing that the Earth is green and clean is not true and not real in the present and suggest using
Second Conditional to describe an unreal thing at present.
Example:
 “If people stopped throwing garbage everywhere, the Earth would be green and clean” and conduct
repetition.

Teaching the Usage Talk about imaginary situations: 

lesson Example:
 If people stopped throwing garbage everywhere, the Earth could be green and clean.
 If the environment were not polluted, people would be healthier.
Ask hypothetical questions:
Example:
 If you were the Earth in the story, how would you feel?
 If you were a fish in the sea, what would you say to human beings?
Give advice:
Example:
 If I were the Earth, I would listen to the planet Green.
 If I were the Government, I would punish people who litter strictly.

Structure If clause: S V(simple past)....

Main clause: S would/could +V(infinitive) ....
Example:
  If people stopped throwing garbage everywhere, the Earth could be green and clean.
 If you were a fish in the sea, what would you say to human beings?
 If I were the Government, I would punish people who litter strictly.

Extra tips Change the order of the clauses:

Example:
- If people stopped throwing garbage everywhere, the Earth would be green and clean.
<=> The Earth would be green and clean if people stopped throwing garbage everywhere.
Break the standard grammar rule: 
Example:
 If I were...
 If he were...
 If the Earth were.

Practice - Show exercises for Ss to practice.

- Show a short pop-up video of the Earth and the Planet Green asking a question and tell Ss to help them and
practice Second Conditional by answering the question:
 “If you were the president of your country, what would you do to help the environment?”

III. Assessment
This lesson, which is made in the form of a storytelling video, is aimed at providing students with the knowledge of Second Conditional including
its usages, structure and extra information as well as ideas about the environment in general and the pollution in specific. As the lesson
incorporates illustrating pictures along with sound effects, this can help Ss to visualize, understand and memorize the knowledge better. As a
result, they can apply what they have learnt into their daily conversation and writings. Also, the video form is proved to have higher reusability.
Students can open and watch the video lecture again for review and revision. 

ASSIGNMENT 4: DESIGNING AN ENGLISH TEST

 I. Description
 There are 50 questions in different levels from easy to difficult in the English national examination, candidates must complete this in 60

language, reading and writing skills. 
 In order to achieve a good score, candidates need to understand and be able to apply what they have learned rather than just learn by heart.
II. Procedure
Step 1: Analysis
 Closely analyse the given sample test along with its matrix in order to classify what kind of language area they belong to and how they are
being tested.
Step 2: Design
 Divide the test into several parts, each of which is assigned to a member.
 Start to look for relevant materials depending on what type of language area being tested.
 Select potentially good questions and make changes where needed. 
 Put all questions in a draft test.
Step 3: Giving feedback
 Discuss and give feedback on the draft test (a whole group)
 Make changes based on the feedbacks (member who in charge of that question)
