SIX- Introduction to Powtoon


Have you heard of Powtoon before?
If this is your first time, then we are equal! I just knew about Powtoon in Madsm Azida's class. It is a software that creates animated and explanatory videos- that is awesome. I mean can you imagine our lives needing to only read and see text to understand the whole concept? This makes learning a whole lot of fun!

Personally and I think majority of people out there would agree that the maker of Powtoon is a genius for inventing this. Besides making life easier for people to understand something through stimuli-enhanced videos, they help conveying the message in the video clearer to the audience. I do mistajen a, lot of ambiguous phrases written in my reading material, hence this is a good way to deliver the messages clearly to people.

I'm excited to making my own explanatory video!

TWELVE- Smartbuilder: Lesson Design

Hi there! The first three pages of our courseware was approved and we were granted permission to proceed to our lesson! We designed this courseware learning specifically on the topic Comparative and Superlative Adjectives under grammar focus. We targeted intermediate level of students aging from 18-20 years. Hence, the lesson that we provided will be specific and detailed. Oh, before I forget- Madam Azida taught us to insert the 'button' onto each of the slides and again, she demonstrated it step by step in front. It was quite tricky at first but there are a lot of pages to be edited on this courseware, so like they say, practice makes perfect. Besides, we also learnt to insert background music to help enhance students' mind and not keep it boring. Our lesson plan oj courseware seems to go as planned. Please pray that we'll manage to pull this off, ya? Thank you!

FOUR- First Look on Podcast: A Review

Hi, everyone! I recently tried listening to podcast and I personally think that podcasting is almost-so-very similar to listening to a radio station on air. There's not much difference except that podcasting talks about certain topics and somewhat educational- it gives out information and knowledge. Radio, on the other hand usually used forto entertainment; by that I mean playing songs and some prank calls or event information. My first time using podcast via Spotify, I listened to this podcast by Mufti Menk entitled Hope with Effort . It was a good input for those who needed some motivation when their paths seem unclear and confusing. The delivery and content in podcasting play important roles in ensuring the listeners stay put and listen to it till the very end. The speaker must make the topic interesting and need to have a specific target audience. They need to say their points and explanations clearly so people will not confuse or misheard. All in all, I enjoy listenin...

THREE- Computer, Search Engine & CMC

According to the Communicative Approach, there are three roles of a computer; as a tutor, stimulus and tool. I undoubtedly agree with this. A tutor allows me to learn without giving me the pressure and so doesI a computer. I can learn so many things without being judge on the answer that I give. I am in control of the choices and interaction that I make in answering the questions. On the other hajd, computer's role in acting as a stimulus is quite fun as well. It stimulates students' discussion, writing and critical thinking. Language learning is integrated into interactive games that helps to keep the enthusiasm going. On topthe ofand that, comouter can also act as a tool. The generic softwares in a computer like Word Processor and Publisher does not provide materials but they can help students to learn language using these softwares.  Besides, I have also learnt about search engines and online database. Search engine is a web tool that allows users to enter keywords a...
