week 7

For this 7th week class, Pn. Foziah had presented her lecture on the topic 'audio editing'. this topic actually had trigered my ineterst since I did not really know how to edit any audio with the right and accurate way.

Listening to Pn. Foziah's lecture on this topic had openned my mind on how to use this audio as one of the resources for my teaching aids in class. for example I can edit and use the audio such as songs or poem recital by using cd player in order to teach pronunciations to the students. this will ensure the accurate and right pronunciation input since I can use audio that provide the right and accurate pronunciations as examples and models for my students. I can replay the audio until the students are able to follow the pronunciations modelled by the audio. this will save my voice and energy during the teaching lesson. I can also provide cds that consist of the audio for the students to bring it back to their home as their references. they can play the audio at their house and they will be able to practice pronuncing the words taught in the cd's.

Furthermore, I will be able to use this audio things to attract the students attentions since it will bring differences in the teaching methods. As we all know, the primary students will be attracted to a lively and interesting audio such as songs.Thus, using the audio editing, I can edit or remix any songs that I want and prepare the audio for my class. I can combine lots of song in one CD and I will be able to use the songs throughout the teaching and learning sessions.

Hopefully, with the knowledge of editing audios, I will be able to edit and cretae lots of interesting audios that can be used for my teaching and learning sessions in the future...

Week 6

Its already week 6!! I never realized it..seriously... and now, Im enjoying my time at my kampung in Kelantan... I really2 miss my kampung so much.....and of course my beloved family...Actually, i almost forgot to update my 6th week entry..hu3..maybe , Im too excited being in my kampung with my family. But...as Pn. Foziah said...works are works..and I need to do this works...hu3...yeah,,,so..back to work...

For the 6th week class, Pn. Foziah showed us several e-books from the previous cohort. I never knew that we can create and do our own e-book by only using the power point. i thought we need to have certain softwares in order to do the e-book. This e-book was so interesting since it can be one of the teaching aids that can be used in the classroom. it would be very interesting and it can attract the students attention. It is because, by using the power point, I will be able to includes lots of colourful and interesting pictures as well as sounds that will grab the students' interest. plus, this e-book is easy to be done. We do not need to draw or paste any pictures. We only need to find the suitable pictures on the internet and include it in the e-book. as simple as that.

So, in the future, i will most probably choose this e-book as one of my teaching aids in the classroom. This will also enhace my teaching skills and help me in improving and varies the teaching techniques that I used in the class.

Pn.Foziah had asked us to do and create one e-book. I already done the story board for my e-book and luckily, Pn.Foziah had approved it. Im looking forward to do my e-book. I think I should be searching for the materials of my e-book now... i need to submit it on time.... I'll update when i finish doing it...thats all for now..bye...=)

week 5

Time seemed to be running so fast. I didn't atually realize that, that day was the fifth week I attending this subject class. So many things that i have learned and seriously, this class had benefit me a lot in terms of ICT and internet skills.

That day was an eye opener for me. It is because, Ive been introduced to the skills of using Adobe Photoshop. Before this, I tried to use this software but I gived up since I did not know how to use it. But, for that day, I started to like this software and I managed to edit two photos. It was so interesting and I really enjoy doing the photo editing.

These are the two photos that I edited during the class.


these just for my first try..maybe I can improve more next time!



Pn.Foziah had also showed us several editted pictures on the screen. I was amazed to see that pictures and the pictures were so beautiful and interesting. when, Pn.Fozaih said that we can do just anything to the photo, I was so interested. She had also provide us with the tutorials on how to edit the pictures in her sky drive. It was really useful. I will use it as my guidance in producing and interesting and unique photo.

not to forget, thanks to Pn. Foziah for her willingness to come to our class eventhough she wes having a diorhea and was given MC for two days.. We really appreaciate that.. thanks for verything ma'am. Hopefully you will get well soon.....
