Lesson Planning...

Hi again, sorry guys for not updating this blog for quite a while..
I admit that, I'm totally lost this semester with all those piles of works
to be done and to be completed by the datelines stated...

As for this course, PMEY 3104, which totally about science and technology...
It is also about how all of us are going to deal with technology as future
teachers and integrate it to our science lesson. Thus, this week which is
the 3rd week, we was trying to be more practical where Mr.Fauzi ask us to work on
a lesson plan in group.

Before starting working on the lesson plan, Mr. Fauzi gave a lecture about
the advantages and disadvantages of using ICT. There is a lot of advantages which
some of it will help in enhancing the pupils' learning. However, if ICT is
not use in appropriate way, maybe ICT will turn out to be in the other way around.
Thus, it is important for teachers to show the good use and model the importance
of using ICT in their life. Besides, teachers should aware the students on the negative sides
of using ICT.

OKay, enough about the importance and the cons of ICT,
Let us talk about the use of ICT in our lesson plan. In our lesson plan, we need to use one of the
technology tools developed by the Bahagian Teknologi Pendidikan in order
to enhance the students learning using technology which is the CD-ROMs.
Each group take one CD-ROMs and come out with a lesson plan which uses
the CD-ROMs in some part of the lesson plan.

Then, Mr. Fauzi gives us some time to discuss and create our lesson plan in groups.
We discussed and find some examples of science lesson plan in the internet. We also
browse for some actvities and other videos which migh be related to the chosen CD-ROMs
and could be used in our lesson plan. At last, my group manage to do it and we are the first
group to present it to the class. We got some postive feedback and also some negative feedback.
The negative feedback is like maybe we could integrate more activities which could involve
every students. This feedbacks and comments is very important for us as we can change the necessary part to be use in the simulated teaching next week. After our group has presented, some other group also shared their lesson plan with us.

For me, all these really help us as future teachers to be prepared to the real situation in
planning lessons for our classroom. Now, we may have feedback and also we could improve
it through the comments from our lecturer and friends. But, in the future we are on our own.
We need to plan a good lesson so that the students will understand us and follow the lesson well.
The future generation's future is in our hand. So, it is a vital for us to work hard
to be the best teacher for our future students. Till then, pen off!>_<
