Model of Teaching

Today we learned about model of teaching. There are 2 types of teaching that are ‘Teacher Based Teaching’ and ‘Student Based Teaching’. We can see the different between them by using the table below:-

Teacher Based Teaching

Student Based Teaching

-Tendency for students making choices is low.                -  Students are passive.        - Authority is on teachers.        - Focus on curriculum context.    -Teacher giving the data to the students. Students are receiver.             -   Education is in dependents mode.     -The teaching process is more structure and systematic.

- Tendency for students making choices is high.              -Students are active.              -Authority is on students.           -Focus on both curriculum context and learning process.     -Teacher showing ways to solve problem. Students solve the problems themselves.         -Education is in both dependent and independent mode.                         - The teaching process is less structure.

We also learned about ‘Goal’ (matlamat) and ‘Objective’ (objektif) where we used to confuse between these two terms. Goal is long term process while objective is short term process. We need to success our objectives first before archive our goals. Table below is useful to differentiate between them.

Goal (Matlamat)	Objective (Objektif)
Aims that need to be archive in longer period of time.       Less structure needed.       Difficult to judge is the aims archive hence the achievement of goals cannot be known.	Aims that need to be archive shortly through steps-by-steps.       More structure.       Easier to judge is the aims archive and achievement of objective is surely.

“Goals without objectives can never be accomplished while objectives without goals will never get you to where you want to be”

           ‘Learning Outcome’ is a statement to know the achievements of knowledge (pengetahuan), skills (kemahiran), attitude (sikap) and the value (nilai) after teaching process. There are five components under learning outcome including ‘frasa merujuk kumpulan sasaran’, ‘kata kerja aktif’, ‘objek bagi kata kerja’, ‘konteks/ keadaan’ and ‘standard/ kriteria’. After learning from Dr. Nurul, I decided to manage these components in tables to smoothen what I had learned. I use Malay to present them as I do not know the term in English; however I tried to give the example in both Malay and English.

KOMPONEN	HURAIAN / CONTOH
1.      Frasa merujuk kumpulan sasaran	·         Pada akhir pelajaran, pelajar dapat… ·         Selepas unit ini, pelajar boleh… (In the end of the lesson, students can…)
2.      Kata kerja aktif	·         Mendefinisi, menganalisis, melukis, menyatakan, menyelesaikan masalah, menyenaraikan, mengukur dsb (Giving definition, analysis, draw, state, solve, list, measure etc)
3.      Objek bagi kata kerja	-Menujuk tindakan ke atas apa   (Action upon what) ·         Mendefinisi inersia (Giving definition of inertia) ·         Melukis litar elektik (Draw electric circuit)
4.      Konteks/ Keadaan	-Menyatakan dalam konteks apa atau   bagaimana tindakan itu dilakukan (Stating how the action being done) ·         Mengukur lebar blok kayu dengan pembaris ( Measure the width of wood block)
5.      Standard/ Kriteria	-Tahap kualiti yang diinginkan atau yang patut dicapai ( The qualification that needed or should be archieve) ·         Member jawapan sehingga tiga angka bererti (Give the answer until three significant figure)

This is my example of learning outcome using all of the components:

·        - After the activities, students can measure the length, width and height of the wooden block by using Venire Caliper until two decimal places.

·      - In the end of lesson, students manage to define the term of Coulomb’s Law by using their own words correctly.

·      - After the experiment, students can calculate the acceleration of gravity for the objects that undergo free fall with different masses and express the answer in three significant figures.
