we received comments and critics not only from the supervisor but also from peers. those words are very valuable during this stage because every aspects of building this web 2.0 need to be watched closely, for an example the colours. this platform is meant to for primary students seven to twelve. these people need something that is attractive fun and also challenging. so we have included pictures from webs, animations and videos and also game quizzes for them to try out.Wednesday, October 20, 2010
building the block !
now that we have arrived to the stage where building and developing the blog is made possible. for the five of us, we divided the chores evenly to everyone, but, it only happens after we have a full discuss-session with the supervisor. we got more than two hours to vomit out ideas and put our 'digital' skills into action and this is what we have in store.

making the story !
remember the ADDIE model ? we have finally come out with a storyboard for the whole web 2.0 project and it has been accepted by out supervisor.
this storyboard will be our guideline in developing the blog template. it will be navigated accordingly to play so we will not have any misconfusion and miscommunication with the linking ideas.

A to E !
A.D.D.I.E model is a generic process that consist of five essential phases - Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation. this model provide a dynamic and effective guidelines for building our educational web 2.0 tool. as we go through the phases of the model, it somehow gives us the ideas to design our web 2.0 tool.
firstly, we have to analyse the goals and objective of the the chosen topic whether it is a problematic topic, topic which brings confusion to students. if we mistakenly choose a not-so-confusing topic, our task will not be very effective because there topics that can easily be taught in class without having the trouble to manage such complicated web 2.0 tool. this tool is used for making an extended version a the curriculum by outlining every aspects of the lesson.
next, designing the project. this is the part we started to make a storyboard for our blog template. important elements like the objective, the knowledge, the skills involved are included in the storyboard.
then, development of our project. after we have designed our blog template and it has been approved by the supervisor aka pn rohaida, all the necessary items and contents of the pages are filled and completed.
the implementation phase is yet to be tested. this phase are to be presented on the final week of our class. only after the implementation phase comes the evaluation phase.
last but not least, evaluation phase which is the final phase of this model. the evaluation phase will be done after our presentation.

1. Do you think that the platform that you use is good and effective...if yes...why? if no, why?
2. Your perception before and after learning ADDIE model..

time has come !
currently in the class, listening to presentation and updating the blog.
the first group has presented their web 2.0 tools. they use blogger account to create a platform for learning. what they did was awesome, they manage to design a useful and attractive blog for students to log on to.
googlesite is likely similar to blogger in terms of the function. this group, group two managed to decorate the site to be such a welcoming page to visit. as mentioned by pn rohaida, googlesite do differ with blogger. the arragement and order of the page are much more organised. i'd say, organise-able.
the thing is, some of us prefer googlesites than blogging, maybe it is because the way they want to organise their content and ideas of a certain topic is more suitable to be inserted into googlesite. some groups did mention that.
last but not least, for our group, we have chosen an Instant Messaging as a platform of learning. we decided to use this platform as an after class session between teacher and students for them to have a real-time chatting and discussion about the topic they have learned previously in class. Instant Messaging or IM provides variety of applications like video conferencing, media sharing and they are all near to real-time interaction. these features are surely useful for both teacher and students to have a discussion where they can share ideas, post questions and clarify any confusions about any topics. feedbacks from pn. rohaida is very useful because she gave us ideas on how to fully utilise the platform for making it a better medium of teaching and learning process.

criticise ! criticise !
3 weeks without any input a.k.a actual classroom interaction and now we're back in action !
for this week's lesson, we learned to consider and evaluate a software or application using the appropriate rubric or guideline. at first, the rubric was given by pn rohaida which she found on the internet. there are several guidelines that can be followed in scrutinising any softwares or websites. the

stimulate your senses !
this time around, we were instructed to go down to another science lab at level one. here we don't have much computers but it has several probes from microcomputer-based laboratory (MBL) which we have discussed on the previous week.
there are various type of sensors, including; light sensor, temperature sensor, motion sensor, force sensor, magnetic field sensor, barometer sensor, pH sensor and heart rate sensor.
for our group, we have tried out the light sensor. for this sensor, it can measure the illuminance in units of lux. we tried out using the lab's light and also phone's light and we could see the differences in the graph.
suitable for primary school?
MBL is suitable for the primary school because
advantages of using MBL

suitable for primary school?
MBL is suitable for the primary school because
- make things easier
- students can get the results easily
- help the teacher in teaching
- takes time for teacher to explain and give instruction to students
- students love the device more and they will easily get distracted by the probe and putting aside the learning objective.
advantages of using MBL
- learning session more organised
- integrating technology in education
- too expensive
- teacher-centred
- less probes for students
