Test?

Just finished our resources test today. Basically, i do not know what i am writing at that time. Maybe some outside force help me to write it. Haha. This week is the most busiest week in my life. Suddenly got so many to hand in and i do not have the time to study at all for the test. Anyways, let's do not worry about things that have passed. Move forward and hope that the future will be a good one. :P

My opinion about future classroom.


If you ask me what i want in my future classroom, there are lot to list them here. In reality, it is impossible to get everything that you want and it is also depend on the government budget whether to invest in these technological things (IWB, LCD projector and computer labs) to improve our education system or not.

For me, as long as the students are willing to learn to improve themselves in terms of their academic achievement, it is important for the teacher to assist them various ways possible. These technological things only bring limited benefits such as to assist teacher in teaching and somewhat motivate the students that are not familiar with the usage of this technology.

Nowadays, it is not common to hear students with 14 and 15 A in SPM although these technological things are not fully implemented in schools or some schools have none of it. From my view, academic achievement can be achieve with the cooperation of various sides such as teachers, parents and school management. As long as these people united to improve our education system, it is not impposible to hear students can achieve more that they can achieve today.

Life after Raya...

Without realizing it, 1 week of Raya holidays already passed. Now our life is back to it used to be, buzy with assignments and stuffs to do. Oh, well. i'm already used to that kind of life anyway.

Nothing interesting happend during Raya, the holidays are too short for me to go around celebrating and visiting my relatives. Maybe the only good thing is that, i still received "duit raya" from my parents and relatives. Although the money that i received is not that many, but i think it is enough for me to buy something that can help me to release the stress from doing the assignments.

Our next assignment is making four lesson plans. I already make 1 before Raya holidays, now i need another 3. Maybe i will start doing it in 2 days time as i will be buzy tonight.
