Description
Summary:Microteaching module for pre-service teacher has always been traditionally conducted in a face-to-face classroom manner. These pre-service teachers discuss, teach, reflect and provide feedback without any compilations of their recordings, storing, retrieving as well as organization of inputs during their microteaching activities for reference. Undoubtedly, these trainees have not been given computer assistance in enhancing their lesson planning ideas and contents. Trainee teachers are yet to be optimistically introduced to using technologies and computers to support or facilitate their microteaching activities. Thus, it is a practical move to integrate a computer support pedagogical solution for the trainee teachers during their microteaching activities so that trainees could optimize their peer responses through network learning resources and personal reflection even systematically. From the pilot study conducted, CiC was piloted to ensure that the system can really be considered pedagogically helpful for ESL pre-service teachers. This paper will elaborate on the specific tools in CiC that are necessary for the execution of this study.
