WHAT I HAVE DISCOVERED?
In Tuesday's (22/03/2016) class, I have discovered that designing a handout is a hardcore job. It's not just putting questions only, it's about creating a handout with an example, a picture, a direct instruction and mainly creating a question correctly and orderly. In class, our first task was redesigning a handout with a different subject which is English, Mathematics and Economics. So everyone was separated and grouped into three in a group so each would get to do one subject each. In my group, we three did together for all the subjects so each of us can give their opinion and points for all three subjects.

After done correcting the handout, we were told to take a picture of the handout and post on our Whatsapp group so everyone could see each other work. Then, ma'am starting questioning each group and everyone starts arguing on each other's work. It becomes chaos as Sabri mainly and others were arguing for the right opinion. And while ma'am was questioning each of us, she strictly said "remember what you said" on why we corrected that way. So finally after the arguments, ma'am said they are no right or wrong opinion, each of us has different opinions and points from others. It was good to see all my friends giving out points regarding the handout. It was like cats and dogs fighting in a good way. I have learned that for one topic, they will be many many ideas and facts about the topic. And I have gain lots of points about redesigning handout from the arguing my friends had. At the end of the class, ma'am asks us to re-do the handout based on the correction we made and post it on uniec.
Next, in the same week on Thursday (24/03/2016), I had discovered different types of PowerPoint. Also, an effective method to create a good PowerPoint for students. Ma'am asked for a PowerPoint slide from any of us to email to her. So I volunteered to email my previous class assignment slides to ma'am. And she showed it in the projector for everyone to see. I was scared that she's going to point out the mistake I made in the slide. But ma'am was only trying to teach us how to do a better slide with fewer words using my slides. Doing a slide doesn't need a lot of words or pictures, it just needs a good solid point and a picture that explains your topic. The things that need to be considered while doing a slide is the font, background color, font size, transition, pictures and many more. I have learned these before during my high school days and while ma'am taught us this, I recall back what my teachers teach us. It's the same method but in the future, I will be dealing with students whom I going to teach. And I will apply this method of creating a PowerPoint for my students.
That's all for now, thanks for reading my blog.
See you soon. Have a good day :)




Hi Sangeetha ! While doing the handouts do you find any difficulties?
ReplyDeleteHi jasvin,
DeleteYes I found difficult in doing the handout because it's my first time correcting a handout and I noticed in some of my past handout given by my teachers was wrong.
