Recommended: The role of assessment in teaching

I still remember the matter that had been discussed by Dr. Zainab. Upon started of the class, Dr.Zainab explained to us the whole assessment for this course. At 1st, I feel quite shocked with the amount of assignment that needs to be submitted in the short amount of time. Not only shocked, I also got confused due to the differences of instruction regarding the task on the video recording. However, Dr.Zainab already clarified it with Dr. Maftuha and she let us proceed with what we have done so far concerning the constraint that we faced. On the first day of the course, the course title made me wonder whether this subject was going to be complicated. Frankly speaking, it was a bit difficult for me after had been away from learning for 4 years, suddenly having to recall back all the theory and pedagogy related to teaching that I had learnt 4 years ago. With only 2 ½ years teaching experience that I have, it is really difficult for me to relate the theory that I have learnt in my bachelor time with my only 2 ½ years teaching experience. However, looking back on these few days, the class session was quite easy-going. The lecturers always being considerate. My only regrets are that I did not take time to plan each assignment well enough. I felt like I was left behind and couldn’t catch up. I still feel that way. I learned that I don’t work well under pressure. The lectures were easy to understand but I tend to lose attention when I’m tired. Giving opinions also is difficult, I find myself too conscious about my answers. I laugh when I get nervous, and I tend to lose words in the middle of the presentation when I got nervous. I don’t have this problem when I teach my students, but when it comes to present in front of peers, especially t...

Sorry about that, but these things happen, and well, we need to adapt and adjust to what we have… OK…Oh, I’ll need another marker because this one is not working properly…” And it goes on and on and on…after I realized it I kept pondering how unlucky of my students to listens to my babbling where the students shouldn’t need to hear all of this. Quite frankly, in some levels it can be quite confusing as they may not even understand half of it. So, after that I keep on telling myself that “Silence is good”. For me, it’s OK for students to have some quiet time while you set up a game or activity. Moreover, keep any problems you may have had with the school’s equipment to yourself. It’s more professional, too.

    Whiteout in Wyoming This article is a comical recollection of a young college student’s trip to Jackson Hole, Wyoming entitled “Whiteout in Wyoming”. He uses a journal entry structure and rhetorical appeals to enable his audience to clearly perceive his perception that Wyoming is white. Through his whole vacation there is snow everywhere, and he only encounters one minority, who I kind of got the feeling that the author didn’t consider him a “real” minority, or a minor enough minority.

    I think that a conflict is a problem or disagreement between two people or groups. A conflict can be small, like the argument between Dally and Cherry at the movie theatre, or it can be bigger, like when Johnny got beat up by a group of Socs. The way that I respond to conflict changes depending on the situation; if the problem was small and easily fixable, I would try to work things out with the person involved in the conflict; if it wasn't too important, I might try ignoring it and hoping that the

    This week for me was a stanch contrast to last week. God truly moved in ALL that I sought to accomplish. His divine hand guided me in all my endeavors. The reading this week paralleled my sentiments, regarding God, and going back to square one, which simply is the “word God.” And that’s exactly what I did this week, I went back to the basics.
