Teaching and Learning


30/1.. yes, it means I am here for 6 months already, but, eventhough I m here for just 6 months, but I do face a  lot of things. I m falling in love with this place and the people. People here are so warm and I really love the kampong lifestyle. Aespecially the FOOD!.  But I m not here to talk about the kampong style. I wanted to share about teaching and learning. After few months beign here, I was appointed as a on of the speakers for Teaching and learning course for all new academicians here. Huwaaa.. and my topic is all about the IT and its usage blab la for the purposes of teaching and learning. I do learn a lot from the net also from the books that I have read. On the first time, I do not know what to explain, but as time goes by, Alhamdulillah I can easily explain everything about the topic given. heheh... Thank God!.. and I admit that my English is not that good. But, still I m trying to be as good as possible..insyaALLAH.. nobody’s perfect! I do have mentor, Syed (he s now doin his PhD, Honestly..being a Govt. servant is not that difficult..Alhamdulillah..i managed to tackle all the juggles.. (Wut am i trying to say????) hahahha... ok..i short..i m done with the first P&P..now comes again..P&P for the new comers.. hmm.. first session in 2012..
today.. i received email from ida..(standby to be a speaker in next P&P)..( was told by Dr N to be an invited speaker when i invigilated k.Zaleria's Japanese Lang. Final Exam..hmm..okk...my request was to shift my session to the morning session coz last time.my TIME was STOLEN by the earlier speaker..left with me jst 30 minutes..which was supposed to be 1.15 hr..but..well alhamdulillah..i managed to complete the session on time...#dah lambat kan..bebel2 lebih2 pon bukan org nk dgr..sume dah sandang beg sesiap..takkn tak paham kot..kan)
..last time ..i spoke about the slides..ppt, the use of tech in P&P..(honestly, to talk about this is not that difficult..coz I came from IT background..and alhamdulillah..im used to it..i mean i m used to speak in from of crowds..since i was in iiu..and also when i was in ib* i used to be the rep. to bring expatriates to our sites..(was Ipoh )..several times..and as usual we have to build a very nice relationship with our clients..then...the you go..when we talk with our audience..then we are actually make a relationship with them..so that ..we can make an eye contact while we deliver our talk..(chewah..now i m talking about SEMASA *WHILE) giving the talk..hmmm...well.. there are several things that we need to keep it to us as the speaker..or i oso can say that for us..as a lecturer..(singular) LECTURERS (plural)...we need to ensure that :-
1) what are we going to deliver
2) what are we going to use
3) why must we use
4) For what purpose
And so on so forth..
Finally, as a speaker, we have to be positive and always live up the session.
**finger tipping here n there ***, its not that difficult to bring the audience to us..to be continued.. :) (time to check in with my lovey dovey)
