Implementation of Microteaching in Adult Education: Intensive Preparation of Adult Educators for the EPOPPEP Practical Part exams

The program is aimed at:

• Adult trainers preparing for the upcoming EPOPPEP exam.
• Adult educators who have successfully completed and completed adult education programs of public and/or private institutions and organizations.

Subject 1 – Meeting 1: What is Microtuition: Evaluation Criteria (4 hours)

The purpose of the first meeting is to analyze the context, content and evaluation criteria of microinstruction. The most important educational techniques that we can use in a 20 minute microinstruction are also presented

Subject Module 2- Meeting 2: Educational Design and Preparation of Microinstruction (4 hours)

The second meeting will focus on the analysis of educational planning (educational objectives, selection of educational techniques, etc.) by providing re-guidance on how the trainees will complete the microtuition plan form for the EPOPPEP exams. Particularly important innovation will be the possibility for learners to attend at least three (3) exemplary microcourses by experienced instructors.

These micro-teachings simulate the procedures of the EPOPPEP exams (interaction, use of teaching techniques and supervisory tools). Trainees in addition to their observation and participation in the training team will have the opportunity for active intervention, discussion and reflection in the educational process they attended.

Topic Section 3 – Meeting 3: The Road Map of Microinstruction from 1st to 20th minute (4 hours)

The third meeting will present the learners with a methodological approach and a pattern for the implementation of microinstruction from the 1st to the 20th minute. We will analyze good practices and mistakes that we should avoid.

Subject Module 4- Meetings 4 & 5: Presentation of Small Tutorials of participants (8 hours in total)

At the fourth and fifth meetings the trainees will have the opportunity to present the microteachings they have created and receive feedback. Due to the COVID 19 conditions, the process will become on-line with a focus on the presentation of the micro tuition plan and the educational course that each trainee will follow.
