Discussion Week 6

Our class today started with surprise where Cik Halimah Harun has asked us to wrote down about our personal details, teacher idol, most hate teacher, why we choose to be teacher and jobscope of a teacher. Finally draw a tree enclose with signature and birthdate. I was curious why we need to draw a tree. She later described drawing a tree is pyshcology act that reflect our own way of thinking, attitude and characteristic. So when we first start teaching, it is a useful tool as simple pyshocology exercise on students to know more about them rather than just talk and chalk. As teacher, we also need to be specific and accurate in words during learning and teaching process to enable students understand what you are trying to reach out to them.

There are several types of research such as below. However not all research is action research as some research is more on experimental or survey.
  • Content Analysis
  • Biography
  • Action
  • Kajian 'Tinjauan'
