CAPES
 

   Helloo,

    Two  new teachers are submitting to a Certificate of Fitness for the professorship of secondary education (CAPES). And I am, a teacher of English, asked to accompany the inspector as one member of the jury for this exam. The question is that this is my first time I go with an inspector for this exam, and I DON �T have any idea about my role.  I feel that it is a great reponsibility.
 
     Please if you have experienced that, would you guide or tell me about the role I play, as a member of the jury, in the classroom?  What should I give more attention to ?  -teaching materials, worksheets, the presentation in the class, fluency, grammar,.... What should I have as a documentation?  What kind of points I do have to analyse ?
 
        I will be so grateful
                         Thank you in advance Smile
 
  Note: In Algeria or France we say CAPES, I wonder how to say that in English? Is it the same   
           as I mentioned it above?

Hi,
Same thing in Tunisia, we call it CAPES and it consists of three exams, a MCQ exam (multiple choice questions) then a written exam and the final stage is an oral exam. About your role as member of the committee, don �t be shy to ask the inspector because being familiar with such examinations and in charge of this mission, he �s the best person to answer your enquiries, the best person who knows better than anyone in the site about the Algerian conditions and rules of testing and grading and circumstances.
But generally speaking, you have to focus on everything, the materials presented by the teacher , fluency, the techniques and methods of teaching adopted, the interaction of the students, the general atmosphere, the lesson plan (whether he or she included all of the three stages of a lesson plan that is presentation, practice and production) ect
Good luck
