The task assigned for this week required us to be in the group of mixed races and gender. At first, everyone seemed to be worried and started promising with each other to be in the same group. However, as we sat in our own group and started discussing with each other, there is none problem at all. I assume that all of us think that there would be a problem when working with other classmate that we are not familiar with, whereas there is no problem at all. This happened because we have never tried to work with another classmate until we are forced to do so. Personally, I am happy with the task and also with the groupmates; Nona, Ah Bak, Zha, Wanjoe, and me.
During these two weeks we are to search and collect the materials for teaching aids for year 5, whether they are animation, pictures, videos, songs, plays, games, or broachers as long as the materials are closely related to the selected topic from CS. At the moment, we have selected unit 12: The Internet as the topic. This is to be carried out together; Nona and Wanjoe are going to do the search, Ah Bak’s job is to do the report of what we have done, while Zha is going to prepare for the tutorial and me is to supervise the work. In this task, I still wonder if I am able to handle my work professionally and make sure that everything will be all right. Beside full cooperation among group members, I believe that time management is the most important part in making sure that the product of the task will be succeed. I am hoping for the smoothness of the work progression.
At the same, I have to start to collect the content of what we have learned throughout the course to be filled in the portfolio. As the starter, I have put a copy of syllabus and curriculum specification for Year 5 in the portfolio and this will continue until the end of the course.
