10th week

Hello again everyone! Today is the last week of class. Comes to an end and finals are coming nearer. So, this week we studied about SAMR model: Technologies Integration in the Classroom. S stands for Substitution which is technology acts as a direct tool substitute, which no functional change. Examples, typing out the work using a word processor rather than handwriting. A stand for Augmentation is technology acts as a direct tool substitute, with functional improvement. Examples, some of the built-in tools such as the thesaurus, word content and spell check might be used. M stands for modification which means technology allows for significant task redesign. Examples, collaboratively create a story using only that allows for multimedia tools. R stands for Redefinition is technology allows for the creation of new tasks, previously inconceivable. For example, students use paper tweets concepts. SAMR models help educators infuse technology into learning and teaching.       

SAMR model

             After studying SAMR, we moved on to the class activity, my group presented our task first. We presented our video, question and survey. There was a little mistake in the survey because the question was given is open-ended and Miss Farah suggests we create an MCQ question. Because sometimes open-ended question the answer are all same and doesn’t make sense. So, Miss Farah gave us a chance to edit our survey and we change the question. Also, we presented the table that we fill up using the ADDIE model after designing the question and creating the video.

So, this comes to an end of the reflection. My last reflection for this semester and this subject. Hope everyone can take gain knowledge from my blog. I hope next semester, I will be writing again. Bye J  

9th week

Hello out there! Hope everyone is fine. In this week’s class, I studied about ADDIE model. If you see my last two week’s blog, I have already shared about the ADDIE model. Miss Farah explains more in detail about the model in class.

Analysis phase

         Also, Miss Farah shows us a video about the ADDIE model which gives a better understanding of the model. Miss Farah explains analysis and there are 4 important aspects is analysis. Which are Instructional Goals, Instructional Analysis, Learner Analysis and Learning Objectives. All 4 components are important in analyzing a work or prototype. The next phase is Design which includes Design Assessments, Choose a Course Format and Create an Instructional Strategy. All this step is important in designing the assessment. Each step should be done correctly and perfectly, so it will be easy to develop the assessment.

Design phase

            To add on, Miss Farah also gave us a class activity to do based on the ADDIE model. In a group of 3, we must conduct a survey or an interview of a lecturer who has been working in Unitar for more than 2 years and has children. We must interview them about the challenges they overcome between workload and children. How are they facing challenges? And How they overcome the challenges? And we need to fill up the table given using ADDIE model. We also design the question ourselves and my other team member did the survey on Survey Monkey.

That’s all for today. Till then…. Bye J
