Today was a replacement class and we start our microteaching. It start with Aswad and Danial. They also teach about pendidikan Islam about the topic manners between family members. Their teaching was so exciting because we can get to do roleplay with our group mates. Our feedback for them is they need to be more confident and work more on their teaching aid. The words on the manila card were quite small and students at the back cannot read it.

Next, Lesley and Adira's turn.  They teach us about feeelings. They have a very good teaching aid and their activity is also interesting. They had very interesting and unique teaching aids and also they teach us akronim by singging. It attract me on their class. Thank you. My only recommendation is they must work on their class management because some students did not give attention when they were teaching. 

 

Hadi and Aiman was choose topic  islamic education. They teach us about how to wrapping the corpse before burial. They was do a demo and me was experiences that demo about how to wrapping the corpse. Hadi and Aiman was explain the step and others students was help they to do practical on akmal and aswad. They describe the meaning of shrouding, and explain about the steps of preparing shroud.  This is good because all of us can feel the real feeling and learn the basic need in islam.

Today we learn about the topic Evaluation Emphasis which is the element that we intergrated in the teaching and learning. The current change in today’s trend needs teachers and students to adapt with the change of situation. 


First, we are learned about the thinking skills which are divided into two which are critical thinking and creative thinking. For the thinking skills, it is important because it to enable the learners to analyse the information. For critical thinking, it is more to solve the problems skills. Second, learning on how to learn. When you as the teacher, you should asked the students to find out the solution on their own and this is automatically the students learn by themselves. Third, the ICT skill ( information and communication technology ). In teaching and learning process, there are many ways and many technologies that student can use to learn through it such as by using the slide of power point. Then we learn about multiple intelligent. The theory of multiple intelligences was developed in 1983 by Dr. Howard Gardner, professor of education at Harvard University. It suggests that the traditional notion of intelligence, based on I.Q. testing, is far too limited. Instead, Dr. Gardner proposes eight different intelligences to account for a broader range of human potential in children and adults. These intelligences are:

-Linguistic intelligence (“word smart”)
-Logical-mathematical intelligence (“number/reasoning smart”)
-Spatial intelligence (“picture smart”)
-Bodily-Kinesthetic intelligence (“body smart”)
-Musical intelligence (“music smart”)
-Interpersonal intelligence (“people smart”)
-Intrapersonal intelligence (“self smart”)
-Naturalist intelligence (“nature smart”)

educational emphasis

1. Thinking Skills
2. Learning How To Learn
3. ICT Skills
4. Values and Citizenship
5. Multiple Intelligence's
6. Knowledge Acquisition
7. Preparation For the New World

Today in class we learn about assessment and evaluation during the class. I gain a new knowledge from today's class. Today i learnt about assessment. Assessment is the ways instructors gather data about their teaching and their students learning such as pre-tests, observations, and examinations. What I understand is assessment is the systematic process of documenting and using data on the knowledge, skills, attitudes and beliefs. By doing assessment, teachers can try to improve student learning. While evaluation is to make judgment to determine the overall value of an outcome based on the assessment data.  This topic very important because to determine the outcomes of the program,  to help in future development of the curriculum material and to improve methods of teaching and instructional techniques. Evaluation focuses on grades and may reflect classroom components other than course content and mastery level.If we think our  method of teaching is not relevant to apply we can change our method to improve our lesson. On this topic, we also learn the types of assessment which are formative and summative  assessment. Formative assessment is about assessment that we need to do when on going program and summative is assessment that we need to do after the program. Intended curriculum refers to the objectives set at the beginning of any curricular plan.  Teacher must complete the goal, specific purposes and immediate objectives to be accomplished in classroom. Most thank you to madam fitriah for the knowledge i get today :)

Today we learn another two model which are Taba's model and cotemporary model. This related with our curriculum development.  The strength of Taba's model  is gives teachers a greater role by not just making them implementers of the curriculum but also developers, and gives importance to objectives in order to establish a sense of purpose for deciding what to include, exclude and emphasize in a curriculum. For the weakness on this theory is teachers may also find it difficult to strike an acceptable balance among the needs and interests of students and It often relies on the teacher's ability to create or select materials appropriate to learners' expressed needs. 

Then at the end of the class, teacher brief about course design project which is our major project that we have done by group. After being discuss whit my group we proceed with our program which is ''1000 langkah ke hatimu. There are many activities we want to create from that and it i was very excited to do it.

See you again, :)

Today topic was about models in subject curriculum and instruction which ate Taylor's model and interaction model. The have 3 stages of curriculum development :

1. Planning (what to teach) - Teacher do lesson plan

2. Implementation ( how to teach) -The process when teacher teach in class.

3. Evaluate - Ask student for feedback to improve the teaching and learning

Taylor's/objective model ( most popular in curriculum field ):

-Involves 4 stages which are objective, content, method ( the activity doing in the class with the student) and evaluation ( to measure the attaiment of the objective)

Objectives: 

-should be based on the learners

-the contemporary life outside the school ( society ).

-Want to make sure it is meaningful outside at the school

-Should be specified precisely what is supposed to be learned

Interaction/Diamond model

-It same stage as Taylor's model

-can designing the curriculum start from anywhere

-the function is to know their level (pre-knowledge like diagnotic test)

The definition of curriculum is the combination of instructional practices, learning experiences, and students' performance assessment that are designed to bring out and evaluate the target learning outcomes of a particular course. Curriculum can be know as is plan of study and heart of school. Without curriculum every education system in school will not function well.

The current Malaysian school education system is based on KSSR and KSSM. KSSR or Kurikulum Standard Sekolah Rendah is a plan of study for a period of six years. Meanwhile, KSSM or Kurikulum Standard Sekolah Menengah is a plan of study for Malaysian Secondary school for a period of five years.

There are 4 types of Curriculum in Malaysian schools which is curriculum. Curiculum ia a plan of study some how like lesson plan before enter the class, A documented or academic in nature. The second type is Co-Curriculum which is can be defined as activities outside the classroom to support the curriculum and it is compulsory such as like sport, games and uniform bodies. This is personal or individual development. Then. the third type of Curriculum in Malaysia schools is extra -curriculum as this is activities outside the classroom but not compulsory. The last type were hidden curriculum which it contains moral values, informal learning inside and outside the classroom and unwritten.
