Episode Twenty-eight
from The TEFL Horizons Podcast Hosted by Shannon Felt
"By the end of the lesson, students will be able to..." Does the phrase above look familiar? If you're a teacher, chances are you're aware of the practice of writing aims or objectives for your lesson. Maybe you learned about this in a training course, or maybe you work at a language school where your boss looks over your lesson plans. For many teachers, sitting down to write out lesson aims can feel a little like a pointless chore. If you have a sense of what you want to do in the lesson, do you really need to write it all out? Is the wording REALLY that important? In this episode, we talk all about lesson aims and why they're actually a lot more important than you might think. We'll give you some tips for making them count, tell you exactly how to determine the right main and sub aim for different types of lessons, and discuss why having a clear aim is the main thing that can make or break your lesson.
