LAST ENTRY FOR PBEY 3102~ BLOGGING~
1. What do you like about blogging?
I like blogging because I got the chance to reflect on my own learning. Whatever we learned in the class will be reflected in the blog and this enhances my understanding on that particular issue discussed during the class.
2. What you do not like about blogging?
I do not like blogging because I felt very difficult to insert pictures for my entry. I prefer my entry to be interesting and the best way is by doing the reflection in the form of narration and also by inserting pictures. Unfortunately I find it very difficult to insert pictures as it is time consuming.
3. What have you gained from blogging e.g. Language skills, improved fluency, critical thinking, improved thought processes, technology skills etc. How?
Blogging, helped in terms of enhancing my critical thinking skills. This is because I will try to analyse on how the topic discussed during the class can be incorporated in primary classroom and I will state it in my entry. Besides, I will try to think on how I should write the entry in order to make it appears interesting so that my friends will also be eager to read my blog and gain benefits from it.
Next, blogging also help to improve my technology skills. This is because, when I reflect on my learning in order to include in the blog, indirectly I am learning back on the technology skills that Pn. Foziah taught in the class. Thus, the skills and information that Pn.Foziah taught me will be very helpful to enhance my technology skills.
4. What do you like about this course?
I like this course because it involves hands on activity (practical) rather than just theory. This is very helpful for me because I understand better when I do something rather than just learning it theoretically. In fact, this course helped me a lot in terms of exposing me to technological skills. I learned a lot of important things which are very crucial for my profession.

5. What you do not like about this course?
I do not like this course is because it involves a lot of work. We need to complete the modules and also the tasks stated in each module. In fact, most of the time we have to sit in front of the lap top and that caused me backache.

I also learned on how to create e-book and also how to create my own video clip.
7. What have you learnt from this course that you did not expect to?
I did not expect I can edit pictures which make it looks so real. The first time when Pn.Foziah told about photoediting, I just thought of adjusting brightness, or adding frame. I didn’t know that I can change the background of the picture and in fact I can edit the pictures where I can stand beside my favourite celebrity.

The skills that I have learned are very essential because, at times certain nursery rhymes has a good language focus in it, unfortunately due to the speed of the song, pupils in primary schools could not catch up it. Thus with the skill that I learned in this module, I can decrease the speed s that Pupils are able to follow the song.
Video Editing Skills
a. What do you like about this module?
I like this module because this is new experience for me. I have create videos even before I was exposed to this module but extracting picture and audio from a video is something new for me and I did not expect I can learned this skill. There are many tutorials in this module which is interesting as I did not expect to acquire all the ability in editing a video.

f. How the skills learnt in this module can help in the making and choosing of teaching aids for the ELT classroom?
These skills are very important as I can teach my pupils these skills so that they can learn on how to create greeting card and calendar independently without buying it from shop. In fact these skills are important as it can help the pupils to develop their creative and aesthetic skills in decorating the cards and calendar.
10. If you can change anything about this course, state what is and elaborate?
I think that there should not be so many tasks. This is because it will only cause students to do the task given for granted. They will not be serious in doing it as they will only make sure the tasks given can be done before the date line. In my opinion the quality is important and not the quantity. Probably the tasks at the back of each module can be minimised to one task which emphasize on creating teaching aids using the skill learned in that module. This will be very useful for us as we learned the skills in the module and practise on how to use those skills in creating teaching aids for pupils.
On a scale of 1 – 10, please rate your computing and technological skills for both before and after undergoing the course.
