Reflection: 

Field trips are important in order to expose children to different cultural aspects of the world around them. Taking school-aged children on field trips provides them with a better understanding of different ideas, people and places.While there is much that can be learned in the classroom, some things are better taught when kids can have a hands-on experience. For instance, teaching kids about history educates them on the basics, but taking them on a field trip to a history museum gives them an up close look at the clothing, weapons and other items used during that time.

                     THE POWER OF FILM, VIDEO,

                       AND TV IN A CLASSROOM 

GRAPHIC ORGANIZER:

 REFLECTION:

We can now bring history into the classroom through pictures, music, and other visuals to a degree never before possible. We can apply the physics from the classroom to simulations available to us through the Internet, and we can develop projects across grade levels and campuses. Students are no longer limited by the walls of a classroom or the knowledge of a single textbook. The world is available to most classrooms, even when students do not have their own computers.We can bring the media into the classroom through visuals, sounds, smells, and tastes. Because our brains rely heavily on stimulus from the outside for learning, this is just one of the reasons that teaching with media is brain friendly.

        TEACHING WITH VISUAL SYMBOLS

GRAPHIC ORGANIZER: 

REFLECTION: 

These visual symbols worth a thousand words because they are easier to understand than words of a paragraph. And I have learned that visual symbols are unrealistic reproduction of physical things. Through using visual symbols, it will be easier for the teacher to let the students identify what it is. And in the part of the students, it helps to develop their critical thinking and also it helps them to understand the meaning of the text easily. 

                      PROJECT-BASED LEARNING

                      AND MULTIMEDIA: what is it?

GRAPHIC ORGANIZER:

 REFLECTION:

Project-based multimedia learning provides a format for implementing several very powerful instructional principles, including differentiating instruction, scaffolding instruction, and facilitating socially constructed knowledge. This approach fosters the development in students of a sophisticated understanding of content-area subjects, as well as sophisticated development of effective and efficient strategies for informational-gathering and processing, communicating, critical, analytical, and creative thinking, collaborating, and goal setting and self-evaluating.

 

USING THE PROJECT-BASED LEARNING 

MULTIMEDIA AS A 

TEACHING-LEARNING STRATEGY 

GRAPHIC ORGANIZER: 

REFLECTION:

We live in a world where knowledge has become ubiquitous. It’s everywhere. The ever-growing list of technologies that populate our world has made it easier than ever for people to consume information that’s important to them. This shift in knowledge access is changing the way society operates and, as a result, is forcing us to change the way we deliver education.

It’s no longer enough just to “know stuff” or to master the fundamental skills of reading and writing. Of course, that’s still vitally important. But of equal importance is owning a set of complex skills that go beyond straight facts – skills that are necessary to succeed in today’s world – teamwork, critical thinking, communication, decision-making, etc. That’s the primary benefit of project-based learning. It combines traditional classroom knowledge with real-world expertise and skills to better prepare students for success.
