The new wiki..

# What do you think of the new "how people learn" wiki?
# What helps you learn?
# What gets in the way of your learning

First and foremost, my heartiest thanks and gratitude to Dr.Tee for actually been moulding and guiding us into the track of acquiring knowledge. As I have honestly admitted, I knew nothing about Wiki and how does it function. I always wondered how our wiki will look like once it done. However, the stress and pressure of it has been reduced by Dr.Tee. The new wiki is definately very systematically planned out. The structure speaks for itself. It very interactive as it should be. Here again, we confront the various ways people learn. A child learns in a different manner than an adult. Similarly, a college students or teens learn in their own respectively ways. so, learning is vary from each individual. It is combination of many skills, interpretation and capacity. Obviously, the learning begins at understanding and eventually develops to higher order thinking as the designated task in learning. Therefore, the new wiki caters to the needs of all types of learner with its own attractive features which are very presentable.

My answer to the next question......Carrier (1980) defines learning as an activity carried out by co-operating on completing decision, seeking to achieve within the rules and their objectives which is parallel to the types of task assigned. In this case, the activity designed should provide the maximum opportunities for language acquisition for pupils to engage in using real communication.

The video, multimedia effect and the activities designed that requires hands-on experiment are several aspect to the culmination of the learning process. I have personally learned on how to create a better, efficient and interactive blog for my project paper. The maximum exposure of collaborative work and real life situation presented in a fascinating ways enable me to learn better.

My final answer on what gets in the way of my learning. well, I guess it's the team work and guidance of the lecturer supported with the featuristic equipments. I am sure I wont be able to grasp things easily within this short period of time if not because of the strong collaboration. I learn by observing and studying on how others perform and how can i learn from them. Apparently, I did managed to learn a lot of stuff and great inputs. When I first walked into this class, I knew nothing but now, I can boldly admit that I have learned some new things in life which are worth treasuring. I am glad I keeping myself up-to-date being an educator to the future generation.The things that i have learned may it be practical knowledge nor life experience. Glad that I am upgrading myself.

  1. Thanks for the above feedback. Perhaps we can discuss further during class — more ideas on how this/other online modules can be improved before the actual development phase.
