This is the very first class after semester breaks. We (science education) combine lecture with mathematics education. Introduction to the course by Sir Furkan. In this course have 4 assignments which are article review, micro-teaching,course design project and e-portfolio. So what I'm doing right now is the e-portfolio. There are 2 tests which cover about 30%. Next, we were taught about the essence of this course which are curriculum and instruction. Curriculum is a plan of study. Instruction is the process of implementing the curriculum through the process of teaching and learning by using various approaches, methods and techniques. During tutorial class, we were taught on how to prepare lesson plan. But before prepare the lesson we need to download the KSSM(FORM 1&2) and KBSM(FORM 4&5) as our reference to prepare the lesson plan.

First assignment begins!!! We have to find an article that are related to curriculum and instruction and also related to our major course which are biology and science. We have to show the article(abstract of article) to our instructor to check it. After the article has been approved then we can proceed on reviewing the article. My article entitled "Learning science content through socio-scientific issues-based instruction: a multi-level assessment study".

# data[].attributes.body
I'm starting to review the article. issues that have been discussed in the article is to what extent does socio-scientific issues-based instruction support student learning of science content and how do assessments at variable distances from curriculum reveal patterns of learning associated with socio-scientific issues-based instruction. After finishing review an article, we have to submit to turnitin to check plagiarism. And my plagiarism was 2 %. The percentage of plagiarism must be below 5%. We submit the article review before enter the tutorial class. Finish one assignment and another 3 to go. During our tutorial class, we have been taught on how to prepare lesson plan in more details. And our instructor explain the content needed in the lesson plan. In the lesson plan there is induction set, development set and closure. As homework, we have to prepare the lesson plan until aspect that have been explained by our instructor.

During the lecture, we learn about 4 models of curriculum development. We only learn the first model which is Tyler's or Objective model. The step in Tyler's model consists of objectives, content, method and evaluation. The strength of Tyler's model is clearly defined and it is organized step by step. The criticism of this model is too rigid and governed by objective. During tutorial, we have finished lesson plan until the aspect that have been explained by Sir Furkan and we checked our lesson plan with sir. And there are many mistakes that we do and we have to correct them. As for me, I have to add more content and activity in the lesson plan. And for me I think the critical part in the lesson plan is to make the induction set because it need creativity and must be related to the subject content

We continue learn the curriculum development model which are Dynamic or interaction model, Taba's model and Contemporary model. Dynamic model is to overcome weaknesses of Tyler's model. It can be start at any point (for ex: content, objectives, method and evaluation). Tyler's model must start with objective. The strength of Dynamic model is flexible and practical. The disadvantage of this model is no fixed direction and objectives. Next, Taba's model. Taba's model is more suitable for language model. It also known as Grass-roots approach. Taba's model is an inductive approach which the step starts with specific to a general. Taba's model has 7 steps. Last but not least is contemporary model. It also known as framework of curriculum development. Contemporary model consists of 5 steps which are need analysis, formulating objective, selecting and organizing content, implementing the curriculum and evaluating the curriculum. During tutorial class, we proceed with the lesson plan and all aspect in the lesson have been explained by Sir Furkan. Thus we have to finish the lesson plan and also the learning tools that will be used during microteaching.

We don't have lecture on week 6 because we have our Mega Scitech Event. All seeds (science education society-biology,chemistry and physics) participant have to join this event. During tutorial class, we have leisure talk with Sir Furkan regarding our course.

During lecture, we learn about curriculum evaluation. It is very important to evaluate our curriculum as we can make any changes to improve the curriculum. Curriculum should be continuously reviewed in maintaining and sustaining the quality, relevance, adequacy and quantity needed in the program/curriculum. CIPP model is used for evaluation. It is introduced by Daniel Stufflebeam in 1966. CIPP consists of context evaluation, input evaluation, process evaluation and product evaluation. Next, we also learn curriculum development division (CDD). CDD aims the development of the school towards increasing the quality of education in line with the National Philosophy of Education. During tutorial, we had micro-teaching. This the first week of micro-teaching. Six person were taught on biology subject form 4 and form 5. They used teaching aids during teaching process. At the end of the tutorial, Sir Furkan gave comments on their micro-teaching. There were a lot of things need to be considered when teaching. First, we have to improve our time management. Secondly, when we want to teach about a process we must use stimulus such as picture to support teaching process. Thirdly, as a teacher we must speak clearly and don't mumbling when talking. Fourthly, we must engage with students. For example, walk in the classroom to see students's progress and call students's name to answer question. Fifthly, teacher must construct activity based on success criteria. Last but not least, teacher must put more details explanation on development stage in lesson plan.

On Monday we had our first test. During the tutorial, we continue having micro-teaching. As usual 6 person will do the micro-teaching and this week is my turn to do the micro-teaching. I choose to teach chapter 3: Coordination and response on learning outcome 3.2: Analyse the role of nervous system. To me, this topic is not easy to teach if we do not use suitable teaching aids. It is because nervous system is in our body and is intangible. It is not easy to imagine what happen in the nervous system without using appropriate learning aids. At the end of tutorial, Sir Furkan gave feedback on our micro-teaching. Firstly, we need to improve voice projection. Secondly, we must have eye contact with student and give equal attention. Thirdly, we must use suitable teaching aids. Fourthly, we must have pace in teaching and be more expressive in our delivery. Fifthly, we need to improve induction set in lesson plan. Next, when we write on mahjong paper, we should not compact the words. We also must learn how to overcome fear and shy when we stand in front of the class. For overall, Sir Furkan congratulate to all of us because the benchmark had been risen up.

During lecture, we learn about instructional objectives. Instructional objectives is proposed by Robert Mager. Instructional objectives are divided general objectives and specific objectives. Bloom's instructional objectives are divided into three domains: cognitive domain, psychomotor domain and affective domain. Cognnitive domain related to knowing fact and information. Psychomotor domain related to performing physical skills. Affective domain involves feeling and exhibits personal attitudes. We finished our lecture session in week 9 For the tutorial, as usual there are 6 presenter for the micro-teaching. For overall, most of them have structured content and improve a lot in their voice projection. Next, they have to vary pace in teaching and make a good choice for induction set. The lesson plan must be detailed. The teaching aids and handwriting should be enlarge. Then, they have to improve facial expression and distribution of attention.

For this micro-teaching session, they have to improve their time management. The writing on the manila card should be enlarge. Some of them cannot control their nervous and it affects their teaching process. The learning aids and activities are good. Next, they need to improve engagement by calling students name to answer question and being more expressive. Other than that, they need to make relation between induction set and the topic. Then, they need to bring additional information that is related to the topic so that student can make relation between what they have learnt. Last but not least, do not become too mechanical because we may loss humanity aspect.

We have two micro-teaching session in week 11. First session is on Monday. For overall, the presenter had good engagements with students. They looks very confident during the teaching process. But they need to improve the whiteboard management and teaching process. Next, they need to improve facial expression and become more flexible. Second session is on Wednesday. For overall, all of them have a lot of commonalities. As for me, some of them have a good teaching aids and some need to improve teaching aids especially the writing on the teaching aids. They need to be more flexible when teaching technical topic. They need to be more confident when teaching. Next, they need to improve their content delivery and improve the pronunciation.

This is the last week for micro-teaching. As usual there will be six presenter on Monday. For me, they did well in their micro-teaching. They learn a lot from the previous presenter and they try hard to improved theirs. On Wednesday, we proceed with course design. My teammates are Diyana, Raihan, Azlin, Zafri and Amirul. The title of the course design that we choose is Biology Experiment Day.

# data[].attributes.body
This week we complete our course design. We are having our discussion at the cafe. We discussed about the course syllabus, financial, vision and aim. For my part, I have to do the course syllabus (experiment form 4 and game 'explore your curiosity'). Two person will do the course syllabus; me and Amirul. Here's are my part not included with Amirul

We had our last class with Sir Furkan. Sir Furkan concluded everything in this course. There are some sharing session much like giving personal opinion from my classmates. Some of them really touch my heart. Everyone comes from different family background and they try hard to survive in this education course. Just same with me. I'm very an introvert person. I don't have courage to speak in front of others. I try very hard to speak in front and improving my confidence level every time I have to do the presentation. My umi really wants me to become a teacher. I have apply IPG before and I take MEDSI and do test on physical activity. When the result come out, I didn't get it. I told my umi and she was very-very disappointed and dengan sayunya she said like this 'kenapa la orang tu tak pilih along'. I feel bad at that time. I disappoint her a lot. Then I took my diploma in science. But still I want to be a teacher as my umi wish. I want to give all my best as long as my umi still alive. I want to show to her I can be a teacher. As what Sir Furkan says for my micro-teaching, I had a good tone. I need to learn how to play with my tone and improve pace of teaching. To me, that is my talent as not everybody has a good tone. I must appreciate what Allah had gifted to me. InsyaAllah I will always try to improve myself from day to day. To Sir Furkan, Thank you for everything. Especially dalam mengajar saya buat lesson plan sedetail detailnya. Hanya Allah yg dapat balas jasa sir. And to be honest, I feel sad when you say this is the last class for this 4 years. You are the best sir. No one can beat you especially dalam mengajar. I can feel the sincerity in you when you teach and sir akan cuba pastikan semua faham dengan apa yang sir ajar.
