After waiting for a long time, after watch all the others performance, after all the preparation has done finally the day has arrived. On Monday (26th November 2018), it is final batch of microteaching and it is finally my turn. On that day, I was the first presenter and continue with Saiful, Christ, Nasuha and lastly Nasrin. I have done my microteaching for assessment in EDU555 course. Based on what I have done, I could say only 50% satisfy and another 50% quite disappointed for my microteaching on that day. At the beginning I will share the positive side of my microteaching which is only 50 % satisfy for me. From what I have presented on that day I could say I am proud of myself because I am be able to do it at least. My biggest concern for this microteaching in the beginning actually is am I be able to speak English fluently. For me, the language barrier is my biggest challenge because I have to teach people in English language and that’s my weakness. My English is not that good enough compared to my others classmate. That’s why I tried very hard to improve my speaking skill and I practiced a lot for that. Alhamdulillah, I could say I have done very well on that day based on reviews from my friends they said at least they can understand and able to catch up what I’m trying to teach on that day. An additional, I so proud of myself because most of classmate were very enjoy watch my microteaching and they were like my enjoyable vibe during my teaching on that day. Plus they said, my activity was quite interesting for them but unfortunately the time were very limited to play it more.

Next, the reason I said 50% I am disappointed with my microteaching because my very poor time management. During on that day, I am not be able to finish it on time, plus I am not be able to show my success criteria assessment and wrap up my conclusion for my teaching properly. It is so disappointed for me because I am not done so well on that day. But it is come out from my mistakes also because at the beginning I just too concern about my English speech and I keep practiced on that thing only until I failed to manage my teaching time well. I thought I have planned it properly, unfortunately my estimation was wrong because I was too nervous when doing it until I forgot to arrange my teaching properly. When, I was reading your comment for my microteaching on my lesson plan, I am quite disappointed because there’s a lot of things I was not be able to prove it my teaching because my bad time consuming. I realized on my activity part I wasting the time too much until I can’t show sir Furkan properly to prove my success criteria. I am very disappointed about that things.
Last but not least, after I have done my reflections based on all the reviews and comments that I’ve got, I promised in myself I will improve on the next time. The thing was occurred and it was past. So, what I have reflect on the next any presentation or public speaking something like microteaching, I should improve more to plan my time very well and also improve more for my English language so I am be able to speak it very well.

P/s: Thank you sir Furkan for all your tips and guidance that help me a lot until I be able to do this microteaching and wish me so I can be a good Biology teacher in the future.

As we were watching the microteaching we were surprised how very good Kakti in doing her teaching. I could say she is the best among the rest because she really done a good job in term of her teaching, teaching aids and the highlight part is she really have sense of humor to make an attraction from the audience. She very good in making a jokes plus she attract audience to deliver her lesson very well. The other presenters also, they were doing very well and smoothly compared the previous batch.
On Wednesday, the sixth batch of microteching continued with Raihan, Ain, Fadhilla, Amira Fakhira, Azlin and Noni. For this batch, I could say all of the presenters are average and have same the good performance. All of them were doing very well and smoothly, we can see they were put a lot of efforts to do their best in microteaching. Overall, they were doing great for this week!

P/s: The pressure getting high, the nervous start to strike me because the next batch will be my turn of microteaching. I put a lot of effort to do very good hopefully on the next week I can do very great. Goodluck dearself!

After a week of mid semester break, on Monday we were back for the first class of EDU555 on that day. The lecturer still proceed with Sir Hisyam to finish last two chapter. In this week we learnt about Instructional Objectives and Instructional Materials. At the beginning of the class Sir Hisyam just want to cover until Instructional Objectives topics. Unfortunately, the topics done earlier so he decided to finish all the chapters on that day. In Instructional Objectives, we have been learn about how to construct the achievable objectives in teaching based on Robert Mager (1962). However in our education system we used Benjamin Bloom (1956) guideline to construct instructional objectives, so we learnt Bloom's Instructional Objectives. After that, we have learn Instructional Materials that about principles, design, utilization and evaluation. To design an instructional materials we used ASSURE Model as the guidelines:
A- Analyze Learner
S- State Objectives
S- Select Methods, Media, and Materials
U- Utilize Media and Materials
R- Require Learner Participation
E- Evaluate and Revise.
After done learn all of that, we were done all of our syllabus. So on the next class, the lecturers decided to proceed with microteaching.
On the Wednesday, the forth batch of microteaching continued with the presenters by Jessica, Ainie, Aina Qazrin, Zaty, Ammar and Hamzi. At the beginning of the the microteaching started with Jessica, I can see that she was doing very good and her speaks was very well and the presentation went smooth. In this batch, we were shocked by the new creativity of teaching aids by Zaty, she was used the teaching aids on the next level by used styrofoam to represent the antigents by her topic and we were really impressed by it. Overall, for the others they were doing very well and done a very good job compared to the last batch.

On Wednesday, it is our first tutorial class with Sir Furkan. During our class, Sir Furkan has taught us a lot of new information that we need to know to accomplish our assigments. At first he showed us Curriculum Specification of Biology Form 4. He taught us how to refer the curriculum specification to create lesson plan for our assignment. He also taught us how to refer the learning objectives and learning outcomes of specific topic in that subject. It as guidelines for us to plan the lesson every each period of class that we need to finish the topics.
Sir Furkan also explained to us about what is Cognitive Domain of Bloom Taxonomy. Other than that he also explain us about RPT (Rancangan Pengajaran Tahunan) and RPT (Rancangan Pengajaran Harian). This is kind of lesson plan of standard school in Malaysia that would very usefull for a teacher in the future like us. Moreover, he explained us about DSKP (Dokumen Standard Kurikulum & Pentaksiran) for KSSM (Kurikulum Standard Sekolah Menengah) that would very useful for us in the future because during our time when we become a teacher we will use this kind of system in our country education. That's a few characteristics that have been taught by Sir Furkan when want to create a lesson plan :
1. Time - It is very important, we must know our ability to finish those sub topics during the given period. Must always refer is it that topic heavy or not for us to teach and for students to gain.
2. As a teacher, we must always put us as a view point of students too. We need to acknowledge is it our students be able to follow our lesson plan or not.
3. Always put our students as moderate. Not too expert not to slow leaner, every each in the class must have different kind of these level. So as a teacher we must try to teach them with modest ability.

In week 8, after we had covered syllabus from Chapter 1 until Chapter 4, the lectures decided we were having a test 1 EDU555 on Monday in this week. The test was covered until chapter 4. This is one of our assessment for us too past in this course. The question were half hard and half medium hard. The most complicated in the MCQ questions part, because of the questions were too long and the answer choices also confusing for us too choose. It really challenging me that moment.
After done with Test 1 on Monday, the next class on Wednesday we continued to the second batch of microteaching which is the presenters of that day were Amirah Izzati, Ameera, Qistina, Zaf, Yana and Nadiah. This time the enviroment were changing because the presenter should do their microteaching in Lab 1 that could be probably challenging for them. Luckily, all presenters on that day were do it very well. Goodjob to all my classmates!
