I was very tired with the materials to be read for this week as they were all too ‘heavy’ for me. It was very difficult for me to digest and then to reproduce the readings in a layman words. I entered the class late today (almost 8.00 pm) because I was busy trying to understand the materials that was posted by Madam Ng.
But then, when she recapped or should I say summarised it, the only thing that came into my mind was ..Oh, now I know what does ADDIE stands for. Phew. Finally on my 4th class , then only I know that ADDIE is a model and it is an acronym for Analyze, Design, Develop, Implement and Evaluate.
What I could say is that for a teacher or educator to design a web based learning, he or she needs to do the analysis first. And the best part is there are many small ADDIE in the major ADDIE. There are many processes of designing and redesigning before a web based is created.
On the second part of the lesson, when Jessica presented, I on the other hand was trying to relate what she has done to what Madam Ng has mentioned for. And at the same time, I was trying to relate whether our group assignment has all the criteria mentioned by Madam Ng. Oh my..pity the brain..too much of information processing.
I felt relieved when Madam Ng suddenly asked all of us to summarised all that we have learnt for the past 8 weeks into a graphic. For me it was just four weeks. hu hu. We had some discussion and finally managed to come up with this chart..
We believe that in order for PLE to take place, aspects of web based learning and ADDIE need to work hand in hand to support TPACK, theories and model of learning in engagement .
My question is : Are we teachers well equipped with all these weapons (the knowledge and also the ability to provide PLE)?

ReplyDeleteIn general, teacher centred learning (TCL) & student centred learning (SCL) is vastly different from virtually A-Z: the ideology (which includes the way both teachers & students think about what T&L is and subsequently our approach to it), the way instructor design the pedagogy, the way to carry out, manage & control the implementation of lessons, the way instructor respond to students, students' responsibility in their T&L and the evaluation.
PLE basically should be a SCL. From my own experience in SCL, knowing how to teach (TCL) does not equate to knowing how to conduct a SCL environment. U'll find yourself in uncharted territory & not knowing where you are, what to do and where to head...
I have to admit that as a teacher (not sure still considered young teacher? =p), I'm teaching my students how my teachers taught me... which majority of them are TCL teachers.
