...I felt new but old in some ways...

I'm about to go to sleep but something inside me telling me that I should write first. I'm enjoying reading this book at the moment - Love Letters to the Dead by Ava Dellaira. Interesting book that gives me a different perspective. Something similar when I read The Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky! There are things and situations that I can relate to in both books. Good!

It's been more than 10 days already since new year. I felt new but old in some ways. New as a new start and ol...

2015

I am back in Malaysia now after a short visit to the UK. First to get started with the Life history research with University of Hertfordshire, second to visit Dr. Kit and family and third to Khairi, my good friend since studying during foundation in IPG Batu Rakit, Kuala Terengganu.

For me, this visit is really important. Not just because of the work that needs to be done but the most important is to go away for a little bit from the world of working life. I just need a place to recover, to re...

Happy New Year 2015!

Happy New Year everyone! Hopefully 2015 will bring happiness and success to us. Let's be positive and try as hard as we can in whatever we do, okay? I'm looking forward to the next chapter and the next steps. I believe that you are too. New year is always a good time for something new and also to reflect on what have we achieved and done so far. 
The more we reflect the more we realise that sometimes things keep moving forward and we can't retrieve the moment that has already passed. So, i...

not so bad...

I know that to think about something that had not yet happened in a negative way should be avoided. It can create stress and give us big problems. So easy to know and notice about something like that but it is so difficult to stop from doing it.

I always think that things will turn out bad for me in certain incidents. Then, I started to freak out and think that there is no way out for me. I guess it is a habit. Like a bad one. But sometimes when I think properly about it, it is kinda good!

Quiz and Group Work about the VLE!

A few days ago, my colleague, Azima and I handled a short class (15 to 20 minutes, circuit training based). We decided to make use of the short time to focus on an introduction to the apps available to students in the Frog VLE.

I have decided to share the activity here hoping that you will get some ideas, to change it or make it better for the use of your own class. You know what, I believe you will make it even better.

We started the class with the usual introduction. We got the students to re...

...stones can turn into a bowl of steamy rice...

I get asked questions on topic resources for teaching and learning quite regularly. I think it is a MUST question every time I am invited for a talk or meeting with the new teachers.

As a teacher, I think we need to have a bigger view of resources. Yes, we can always wait for the school to approve a budget to buy spe
cific resources for teaching and learning, but we can also make use of the things around us. I think it is really important to look at things around you as possible teaching and le...
