Mrs Tall a grade 12 physical science teacher, was polite and friendly to her learners, but it was clear she wasn’t trying to be the learners’ friend. For instance, she used the formal pronoun for addressing the group of learners, which is unusual in this situation. Maybe she thought using somewhat formal language added to creating a professional work environment, and he might have hoped this would make learners pay more attention in class. The teacher seemed very serious about her field and approached the classes in an organised manner: she would explain new topics by drawing and writing on the board whilst talking about the subject. She also frequently made her learners take small exams. In the class, following such an exam she would show the learners pre-made drawings of the answers and how to get there using an overhead projector. This allowed the learners to figure out what they did wrong and how they can do better at the bigger exams.

These demonstrations made the theory seem much more BPT1501 SEMESTER 2 PORTFOLIO 2024 relevant, and Mrs Tall went the extra mile to ensure that her learners would grasp the physics concepts.
