Reflection on EDU456

 Assalamualaikum and hello readers. As we have gone through our lesson during week 10, this will be my last blog post for now. For 10 weeks of learning on EDU456, I have learned so much not just in ways of teaching or digital platforms for teachers and educators but so many more.

After all the lessons, I have fully understood that the scope of being an educator is not just heading to class every single day and teaching everything that needed to be taught. A lot of things have to be certain before, during, and after a teaching lesson. This includes types of teaching, platforms for educators, digital apps that help with teaching, and many more.

Learning about the varieties of apps and software that could be used for teaching does open my eyes to how much, we as educators and everyone, could do. Using Canva to make notes and infographics, learning more usage just from Microsoft Word and Excel, and learning on other various programs that we have used throughout what we learn is very fun. 

Besides that, a lot of values I have learned are actually from Dr. Azah, our lecturer on EDU456. She showed how much is needed to be an educator. Showing us to always be determined, and happy during teaching. All of the demonstrations and ways from what we learned are always concise and easy for me to understand. I also learned how to make students engage in class discussions.

Overall, this subject helps us, future educators, to be able to use all various apps, platforms, and etc. for teaching and even other purposes. 

Thank you and have a very great day to readers. And that is all from me, for now. :)

Instructional Design Models (ADDIE vs ID4T)

Image
  As we learn instructional design in our second week of class, we were required to compare two instructional design models, which is ID4T to any other model. As for me, I pick the ADDIE model as a comparison to ID4T. ADDIE The ADDIE model is one of the most famous types of model in instructional design. This model retained a five step approach, which is also much more detailed in its' subset. The five steps are Analyze, Design, Develop, Implement, and Evaluate formed the name, ADDIE. ID4T ID4T or Instructional Design For Teachers is also a model for instructional designs. The model is split into nine processes. The creator Carr-Chellman suggests in this model for educators to be “creative with your activities/media, test your instruction, revise, do instructional design all the time”. Comparison between ID4T & ADDIE model ID4T ADDIE Nine steps ·          Setting goal ·     ...

Flipped Classroom - YouTube

Image
 Assalamualaikum and a very good day to all readers. As it has been 8 weeks of learning, there is so much that I have learned. In this week's lesson, we were tasked to write our opinion on the way or platform for the flipped classroom. The one that I have chosen is YouTube. YouTube is not something new for anyone anymore. The application is useful for anyone to use to watch videos of learning, fun, lifestyle, foods, and, etc. As a student, we mainly use YouTube as a platform for learning. Since the start of online distance learning, YouTube was one of the main platforms for lecturers to post their videos of lectures and teaching. As the video is posted on YouTube, it makes learning so much easier as some of us students have internet connection problems. By this, we are able to watch it any other time when our connection is much more stable. Aside from that, lecturers have also linked a video from YouTube itself as additional materials for us to look at. As YouTube is a massive plat...

Universal Design for Learning Classroom - Flipped Learning

Image
 Assalamualaikum and a very good day readers. Currently, right now I am writing on week 9 of our lesson. For this week, we learned on UDL or Universal Design for Learning, where this topic focuses on the flexibility of learning for all various needs of students. In my personal teaching approach for my classroom, I would prefer to use flipped learning to ease my students. As mathematics would not be the easiest for all students, I think that applying flipped learning will let students feel much easier at learning this subject. This is because flipped learning allows students to read and understand a certain topic first before attending class. Hence, allowing them to be prepared for what we would learn during class. In addition, letting students read on a certain topic first, will allow teachers to know which topics or chapters that is the hardest for them. By that, teachers could focus more on certain topics with the students, thus, helping each of the students to understand that to...
