Practical Project Design > Appendix


Two Samples of Students' Practical Projects

 
Note to the Appendix

For both students and tutors, two samples of students' practical projects are included. In order to give you an authetic picture of what real-life students' projects look like, no editing has been made on the original texts, although the original formats and layouts have been slightly altered in order to cut the length of the appendix to its tolerable size.

Note that the samples should not be treated as the models for students to follow blindly.

The authors of the present book would like to take this opportunity to thank the two students who are kind enough to allow their projects to be included in the appendix.



 
 

8.Project findings and discussions

From the project I've learned that learners' errors in writing can be reduced by varied error-correction techniques. I find my weak points. My error-correction technique is ineffective. My voice is too low. I just tell the right form. I give few analysis and seldom emphasize the common mistakes. And I don't like write the words on the blackboard, either. My students also learned a lot. Their errors in writing have reduced a lot since the project implemented. We can say they had made rapid progress. At the same time I feel that I should have done better, if I implement the project earlier and was given plenty of time. In the future I will do such project as early as possible. I will implement this of kind of project to improve my teaching.
