Hardwares

In this week's lesson, i as well my other friends learned how to set up hardwares such as laptop, Lcd projector, printers that we will be using in schools soon. We are given chance to do the setup practically even some of us already knew how to do it. Definitely its a new knowledge for the beginners. The most interesting session is the session on IWB or Interactive White Board. Its something new for all of us. All of us again given an oppurtunity to try out the IWB. I think by using the IWB we can really engage with the students. We also introduced a new program called smartboard which is usefull when using with an IWB. Hopefully the schools provided with this IWB by the time we posted.

Engaging In Education

One of the major question while teaching in class room, are we as teachers really engaging with the students. If we fail to engage with the students the message we want to deliver to the students will not received or absorb by them. This the cause why the students find the class is boring or not interesting. One of the way to engage the students is with integrating the technology such as Integrated White Board. But at the same time we should bare in the mind integrating technology is not something that we use technology for the sake of using it.
