怨自己Unprofessional
教書五年,到了今時今日,我有95%以上的課節是表現滿意的。餘下的5%,通常是考績觀課(即是科主任觀課作為appraisal的一部份)。根據往績,考績觀課表現失準的機會率大約是20%。
「剛才的課堂,你跟學生的互動很好。他們的反應很不錯,而你也照顧到較被動的學生。不過...
教學設計和準備工夫有不足之處(下刪六百字)...」
其實踏入課室的第二分鐘,我已經知道工作紙設計出了問題--內容太多,失了焦點。而且自己心理狀態出了狀況,勢成騎虎,唯有盡力把設計得太冗贅的教學流程完成。
也許打從一開始,這一節課是注定失敗的。那個設計我在週末想了大半天,可是一直也覺得感覺有點不對路。雖然自己在腦裡推演過,感覺就是有點問題,但又說不出是什麼。
今天的空堂本來打算用作最後的推演,可是遇上了大難題--學校的變壓房維修好之後不能超出負荷,所以不能開冷氣,坐在教員室,一直流汗,感覺很壞。後來.... 變壓器又再淪陷,全校停電,燈、風扇、電腦,全都沒了。還要在課室當值,最後,我整個人都濕透了,好辛苦。平時在重要活動或課堂之前,都會到我的心戰室(附近的某茶餐廳)好好預備心情,可是因為停電,午飯時間還要留校,吃的是很難吃的外賣。
到了電力回復正常的時候,我回到電腦前,整個人好像在水中爬上來一樣濕淋淋,好臭,心情還是很壞。什麼最後推演都做得不好。就是這樣,我拖著又濕又臭的身體和壞心情進課室。
明明九成以上的課堂都是好的(甚至連病了也是好的),今天卻一團糟。如果不是經驗搭救,早就完全死火了。只好怪自己unprofessional:
明明心裡覺得有異樣,覺得畫蛇添足,還是照做。因為觀課,為做而做;被外在環境影響心情,影響準備。(的確我是很大汗,而且很怕濕熱的人);
覺得自己狀態不行,卻頂硬上,不提出押後考績時間。
一句到尾,那是unprofessional。要怨就只好怨自己。
我寫這篇只是想有個記錄,讓自己記得這一課的教訓。我絕大部份時間都沒問題的,過了課室那虎度門,什麼心情也做得到成績,就是偶爾出問題,今年度的其他觀課也好好的,今次真的不行。

An unprofessional teacher cannot have written such reflective statement. "Add oil"!
不要太怪自己,一次半次的考察不代表一切,你教了5年,總不會因為學生一次不合格便即認定他是垃圾,放鬆點,平常心面對就好了!^^
add oil
今日我也被老细diu七。算是我进这公司一年多第一次犯错,后果不算严重。纯粹的技术失误。
唔好太怪責自己啦
最緊要知道錯係邊
咁下次唔好再錯同一個問題咪得囉^^
放鬆點吧=] 老師=]
還有很多個明天。繼續前進!
教書是你喜歡的工作,做了五年就算得上是professional啦。觀課如考試,要看自己的狀態,還有許多環境因素。不用太失望,下一次希望好過今次就可以。加油啊!
你不是機器, 是有血有肉有感受的人 , 一時間面對一連串的阻滯 , 你的表現已算不錯 。放鬆點吧 !!
我當年睇人堂,根本不重視當日的表現,反而愛從蛛絲馬跡看老師平日之表現。
如果你老闆因為你表演當日失手而質疑你,我只可說一句:「良禽擇木而棲」
正如樓上 wkalfredchan 所言,尸位素餐者不會「怨自己」,也不會說汲取什麽教訓。你對教育工作的熱誠,對學生「問責」,正是 "professional" 的表現。繼續加油!!!
能自省就代表你專業,庫斯克兄不要沮喪
last minute surprises always mess up people's performance. Hang it there, maybe next time get prepared a day early? It is definitely not easy being a teacher.

I felt so touched when I read these few lines.
I have the same experience too, not only in my teaching but also my everyday life. I feel there is something wrong with my plans, but I tend to ignore this feeling and go ahead. It turns out that this "feeling" is so often correct. It seems to be a "guiding voice" trying to protect me from making unnecessary mistakes.
What I have learned is NOT to ignore this gut feeling any more. I need to train myself to get in touch with this gut feeling.
被外在環境影響心情,影響準備。
覺得自己狀態不行,卻頂硬上,不提出押後考績時間。
I am also easily distracted by my surrounding environment. I hate to be in an environment with too much noises and where the lighting is too strong.
Before entering the classroom, I want to feel comfortable and confident. It is because I have always thought that I need to be confident and believe in what I am going to teach before I can convince my students of what I say.
However, in reality, I am not that confident. When it comes to lesson observation, in particular, my performance is not as good as usual. It is overwhelming enough to handle responses with such a large class size in the classroom (this is why I prefer small-class teaching --- less responses to handle, but more attention to give). The presence of an observer adds to my "mental" burden.
I attribute all these to my high sensitivity in basically all aspects of my life --- physical, emotional, spiritual. I take in too much information from the environment. It seems that my brain fails to tell me what to handle first and what my priorities are.
Knowing that I am such a sensitive person, I begin to realize the great need of a personal down time, even in the staff room. I have come to realize that, the more quiet private time I have, the greater is my efficiency and effectiveness.
My sharing here may not help much. I feel that I am talking more about myself rather than responding to your post. I hope you don't mind.
太緊張通常反而會失敗,如果可以平常心待之,應該會更好。反正以庫大的往績,應該不會因為觀課不夠精彩就被看輕了吧。
@ymat - 對學生是負責,不是問責。(當然也可以問責的,例如他沒交功課的時候……)
@fongyun - 謝方老師指教!
做人做事好比考試,不必為答得不好的一題擔心,別的可能答得很好!
加油、努力!
一次不小心跌倒,下一次謹慎一點再次面對挑戰!
P.S. 你已經很 pro.了!請好好欣賞自己,不用自責。
