E-Book???

Posted on Wednesday, August 26, 2009 by shamy





E-book?? I was quite puzzled when i first heard Madam Foziah mentioning that we have to do an assignment in which we have to create an E-book. Then, i got to kinow that we have to create an E-Book which is related to our curriculum syllabus topics. In class, Pn.Foziah showed us few examples of E-Book which was created by her previous students. Then, Pn.Foziah told each of us to come out with a story line and then tell her to get her conformation. I came out with few story lines which is related to the Year Three, Fun times topics. My first story was a failure as Pn.Foziah did not approve it, so i came out with a new story with the same topic. So, i came out with a new story in which this boy would realise how much he wasted his time sleeping, without having a proper hobby. During the holidays, i planned my time wisely so that i could do my E-Book early and finish my other works. I asked my friends on how, i could use the GoAnimate software to actually create my E-Book because those Go Animate software is a creative storywork and i feel its good to use that to teach my pupils. So my friend taught me how to do it and i finished my work since i came back early to KL .Overall, i manage to complete my E-Book and sent it to Pn.Foziah's gmail website by monday night. I personally feel that the E-Book is an intereting way of learning because it can create a good storyline that pupils would understand more easily. Thanks to Pn.Foziah for teaching me about the E-Book..=)

Photo Editing

Posted on Wednesday, August 12, 2009 by shamy

WEll, well well.... this week around, me and my friends had a great time playing with the new software that we downloaded. It was known as the fotofx and adobe photoshop. We had a great time learning to use the tools provided to erase a picture, crop and fit in with a new picture. Most of us, had a great time using celebrities picture to suite well with our faces..(LOL). Pn. Foziah actually had a great time watching us coming out with weird pictures which made us look like famous supertars. As for me i loved phoo editing and graphics, but i did not have the chance to buy or use the software provided. Hence, when i knew that we are going to learn something about photo editing, i was so excited. So, me and my friends had a great time, teasing each other with weird, funny pictures and we enjoyed the class for the week. I personally feel that this subject has given me the opportunity for me to look beyond what we have learned in Maktab. As I know, it has always been the books, which gives us the knowledge all the time, but in UM, its totally a different thing as we are able to learn and grasp new knowledge of ICt which is crucial for every teacher. So, before i end my reflection for the week, ill upload a masterpiece of mine, which i did by replacing my picture with the actress Tamanna (kollywood actress).Thats all for now!






Frustration???IT happens all the time!

This is how I was in my previous class because we were not able to go online due to the server problem at the education faculty. I was quite upset because I wanted to update my latest blog but everything was not right. Thus, Pn Foziah came up with plan B, as she instructed us to get into few groups and then come out with a power point based on the chapters given. Then, we went around looking for group leaders and got into the groups. We were asked to go into new groups in order to mix around with others as we learn better about each other. When we work with different people we tend to, learn new things as we suit our self to their style of learning. For instance; I would prefer to have discussion every time we were given a topic or chapter to present. On the other hand, my friend would prefer to divide the work in order to make things easier and faster. Thus, we know that every one of us have got different needs and choices to suite our style.
As for my group, my group leader, Ismail actually came up with the mind map on the chapter Two, which is IDENTIFYING PRIORITIES AND THEIR IMPLICATIONS. We discussed and then I and my friend Gowrey came up with the power point. After an hour, we waited eagerly to use internet, yet we could not retrieve the connection. So, Pn. Foziah actually told us to continue with the upcoming topics and then she asked us to prepare the PowerPoint for all the other topics. The class was so boring and most of them continued their work but some of us had great time chit chatting with friends and Puan Foziah. Yesterday, I came about the FXphoto setup and I really enjoyed playing and meddling with the photo. It was really fun as I was able to create nice frames for my pictures and it made my photos look much more beautiful than how it used to be. Thanks to the resources class as I am learning something new in every lesson.
