Hello everyone. Today we had our first lecture for this subject. We had two consecutive public holidays on Monday, hence enabling us from getting our fills of knowledge for this subject in the first two weeks. The first lecturer was Mejar Jasmy. He has a strict countenance, and was quite harsh towards students who were late. But that is a given, since most of the students who came in late, were really really late, and I understand that he was just trying to show us that discipline should be a teacher's highest virtue, through tough love.
Although he looks and acts considerably strict, he was actually a very nice and fun lecturer because he went through the lecture by giving us stories that teach us 1000 lessons. He briefly explained about the importance of technology in education by showing us various types of videos. He showed a video of a technology that combines skate with drone, which was very cool. From these videos, I understand that, as a teacher, I must find a way to combine education with technology so that my students can find amusement in learning. Eventhough Mejar Jasmy taught us about the importance of installing the use of technology in our educating techniques, he also reminded us the harms of depending too much on technology. Although we are living in 21st century, we should not give up our thinking skills, and depend 100% on technology to do the thinking for us. Innovation brings the meaning creating new methods, ideas or product to help making life to be a tad easy. We should use innovation and technology in our teaching methods so that our students can get the highest productive learning in the classroom, but not to an extent that it can jeopardize our morale. Overall, I found the lesson to be very fullfilling because I learned a few new things, besides getting valuable life lessons from Mejar Jasmy. :)
