I observed Olivia James’s listening class on Tuesday at 2:00 P.M. Olivia James was basically having the students watch documentaries about technology, and then having them come up with their own projects to do on the videos. The students would be divided into groups, and she would guide them in brainstorming and outlining their projects. Each of the students had a worksheet to guide them in outlining their project. The topics ranged from Facebook to G5 with their influences on society. The lesson used the bottom up approach to language learning, where the students took a lot of responsibility for teaching themselves the material. The lesson was student centered.
