The MEP Teacher Training films have been created as part of the Mandarin Excellence Programme. There are four classroom-based films which provide examples of best practice Chinese language teaching, from four different schools in England.
The classroom-based films are available to watch in their entirety, but are also available in shorter clips that have been cut according to teaching topics. An instructions document has been created by the IOE Confucius Institute to help users navigate the resource. The instructions document includes:
- All four lesson plans used in the films
- General instructions on how to use the films and clips
- Specific instructions and ideas for using the films/clips for self-study
- Specific instructions and ideas for using the films/clips from a teacher-trainer perspective
- Teaching topics list
