Presentation & Feedback

Assalamualaikum....
This week was the 9th week and for this week class, we had some presentation and feedback regarding our 2nd Assignment. Luckily, my group had been chosen to present our work in front of the class. We only had to send one representative from our group and other group members had to accompany the particular person while she was presenting her work. So, our group had selected Nor Azirah Ibrahim to present her work.
From her presentation, there were few groups who gave feedback. There were some positive and negative feedback given by our friends, tutors and the lecture, Prof. Raja Maznah. From the feedback, I realized that in designing a SMART Board lesson plan, there were a few aspects that we had to take into consideration. For instant, the background, animation, font, grammatical mistakes and etc. Since our target audience is Primary pupils, we had to make sure that all of the aspects may be beneficial and useful for them. If one of the aspects will disturb them in learning, we had to consider whether we wanted to change it or remove it out. So, as the designer, we must always think about our target audience will designing anything especially for educational purpose. At the same time, we also want our pupils to feel enjoyable, interested and motivated in learning.

SMART Board - Assignment 2

Assalamualaikum and hi guys....
How is everyone now? Even though this is Ramadhan month, we cannot use it as an excuse to stop us from learning and focus on our study. Is it right?:-)
This week was the time for me to work out on my 2nd assignment that is SMART Board task. After draw lot on the subject that each of us supposed to focus on, I had assign to come out with some teaching material for English Language subject. Honestly, at first I found that it was difficult for me to find a suitable topic for my assignment. However, after I consulted my group members for their opinion, I decided to come out with a lesson outline for the topic of Prepositions (location and direction).
Along the process of this assignment, I had referred to a few exercise books for Primary pupils in order to get ideas for my SMART Board activities. Besides, I also referred to the English Curriculum Specifications (CS) for KBSR to make sure that my SMART Board task will be beneficial and suitable for my target audience. I decided to focused on Year 1 pupils with the intermediate level of proficiency.
I really hope that I could do much more better in this assignment compared to my previous
assignment, video clip.
