Pedagogical approaches and instructional strategies

Hi, I'm back after a long hectic week which I hardly could breathe. Anyway, glad to be back in my blog. First and foremost a thumbs up for Lim and Chun who really did a good colloborative job in presentating their topic. The use of visual for the instructional strategies was interesting and till today I could remember them. I feel the use of visual is very helpful especially for our students. My own expereince at the moment I'm using graphic supplement to teach novel to my students and I find it is really beneficial as they can relate better the story .

Besides that, I enjoyed the debate though it was kind of controversial as the judges did not really take a stand but rather had their own views. However, the brainstroming session in the group before we debated was good because we were looking from so many different point of views. At times it made us to think hmm... we can also look things this way which we did not realise at the beginning. One more activity that was enriching was the problem solving but it could have been better if we were given more problems as when we are solving the problems, in real we are applying what we understood from this topic.

To be honest, at the beginning when I read the chapter, it was not clear at all as I didnt understand what the chapter was all about. But when LIm and Chun presented it was clear and was telling myself such a simple thing to understand but the text book made it so difficult to comprehend.

Overall, good work Lim and Chun and your sleepless nite preparing the presentation is finally over. Mine , yet to come !
