research analysis

This time around, the task is quite complex, or should i say,it's quite difficult.

Choosing the right article itself is quite hard. This is because we have to find the "right" content of the article to suit the requirement of this task.

I've found one article. I've read through it..hopefully this article matches what is required by the task.

I realize that in order to attempt this task, I need to put on my thinking cap and "set" my mind towards a higher order thinking.

If previously, people claimed that the tasks weren't that educational, I can assure all of you that this particular task is educational enough to be accomplished.

I think, through this task, it can challenge my critical thinking skill as i have to precisely analyse each and every single detail of the article.

I'll try my best to finish this task on time. I'm not really familiar with analysing articles. However, I will cooperate with my partner to figure out and accomplish this task.

getting better

in the past few weeks,i didn't even know what tutorial is.Now, after creating a lot of tutorials,I become more familiar with its "format".It's true..practice makes perfect!

Today's class is on the presentation of 6 topics.So far,we have finished 5topics.Basically the topics mentioned about the ability of teachers to work on the teaching and learning activities in the classroom with or without the existence of coursebook. It is all depends on the teacher on how to manipulate the available materials with relation to children's background knowledge,level of proficiency and interest.
All of the contents of the presentations,plus the previously learnt skills,if combined and well interpreted,can become a framework or guide so as to prepare me to become a capable and flexible teacher one day.

the skills

this time around we are required to complete a new task which is to produce materials and use the skills that we have acquired in the past few weeks such as video editing,audio editing etc in order to come out with teaching resources to teach skills such as listening,reading,writing and speaking.
i realize now that all the tasks that Pn. Foziah had assigned before this did come in handy.i don't have to rack my brain thinking of how to take only some parts of a video or audio as i've practised how to do it in the previous tasks.
i hope that everything i've planned for this task will go smoothly.
and last but not least, million of thanks to Pn. Foziah for being so considerate in extending the dateline for our assignment.i'll try my best to use the time given wisely.
