Still Wondering...


This week, Puan Foziah introduced us to Halliwell's six well-established set of instinct, skills and characteristics which will help them to learn another language. There are:

-children's ability to grasp meaning
-children's creative use of limited language resources
-children's capacity for indirect learning
-children's instinct for play and fun
-the role of imagination
-the instinct for interaction and talk

2nd week already..

New week, new things....

The class started a little bit late but it's okay...
Pn. Foziah asked us to elect a leader for our class and i thought I could be the one but Hazwan was better than me. He was the lucky one who has been chosen to be our class leader. Good luck Hazwan!!! Wish you all the best...

Then, we were required to fill in our details and paste our picture on the form given. After that, a set of questionnaire had been given to us. In the beginning, I wasn't really understand what the questionnaire was all about. But when I got through, it was about our prior knowledge on the use of internet such as the knowledge on editing audio files, videos, and photos. The questionnaire made me realized that I was far left behind in technology. Some applications stated on the paper were unfamiliar for me... Ohhh my god!!! How could it be?? But my spirit did not stop there. I took it as a challenge for myself. I will make sure that by the end of this course, I will able to know those applications and practically use it.

Then, Pn. Foziah told us that we could type faster using keyboard if we used the right technique. The information given could be very useful for me as I... (heheheh.. you know what I mean). So, started from there, I kept myself trying again and again using the software called TYPING MASTER. Credit to Pn. Foziah...
Hopefully, I will be able develop myself and please lend me your hand mate!!!

First day of the class!!!!

Eventually, I'm surprised that this course too deals with technology as I've no idea about it at all. I thought that I will be learning on how to develop resources that can be used in the teaching and learning process. What i meant was non-technological resources. Why? This is so because the title of the course itself gave me an impression that okay I waill be dealing with newspaper, article, brochure and so on. All these can be used as teaching materials so as they must be evaluated first. From the first lesson, it seemed that there are so many things that I've not learnt and i hope to learn more through this course.The terms introduced by Puan Foziah were all that I have never heard of...this indeed made me worry alot..Of course I'm worry because there were so many things mentioned about technology, I only heard of a few..I felt as though as I'm left out so far behind.. But never mind,learning it life long. I can still learn..I hope i could cope up in this course as well as to learn more form this course.
