Since, I am the student of Bachelor in Chemistry Education of UPSI. Now, I am in the semester 3. So, my major subject is Chemistry and i choose the Mathematics as my minor subject. I hope that I will improve my knowledge and skills and score both of the subjects as well as I can. I also have a strong passion to enhance my ability in the teaching field.

Teaching goals:

As a teacher, we need to identify all the potency of our students because they have a different level of proficiency. I want all my student to think creatively and in a critical way in order to achieve their target and learn in the fun and comfortable learning's environment. Students is my priority and their understanding are very important to me. So, I will apply my knowledge especially in ICT field in my teaching and learning process,so that it will become more attractive and enjoyable.

FILA Chart..

My first group's task is to make the FILA chart. It is a new experiences for me because before this, I do not know anything about the FILA chart. But,after the lecturer had explain to me more detail about that, I had learned a something new. So, today I will share some of my knowledge and experience while doing the FILA chart. Actually, what is the FILA chart???

FILA chart is actually the useful draft to solve the problems at a certain situation. For your information, F is stands for Facts, I for Ideas, L for Learning outcomes while A is stand for Actions. By using the FILA chart,we can list the facts from the problems,ideas,learning outcomes and some actions in order to solve the problems. It is very useful and make us more easier to identify and solve the problems.

Facts - sentences in the text of problems at given situations.
Ideas - issues of problems
Learning outcomes - ways to overcome the problems
Action - steps taken to solve the problems

Example of the FILA chart:

Problem Scenario 1:

Rosa, a new teacher was chose to attend a workshop on Learning & Teaching organise by the district education department. In the workshop she was exposed to many things such as learning theories, teaching methods, classroom management and assessment process.

My Teaching Philosophy

I believe that most of us have our own teaching philosophy. So,today, I will share mine!

Now, I am the student of Bachelor in Chemistry Education of UPSI and my minor subject is Mathematics.When I had graduation soon, I do not necessarily teach chemistry only, but I may also be taught in mathematics or the other subjects. So, as  a professional teacher, I should be always prepared and accept all the responsibilities that are given to me. I hope that I can practice all the knowledge that I've learned and shared with my students soon. I will try my best to gain a lots of experiences and knowledge especially in the field of ICT,so that my teaching and learning process will be more effective and can attract the students.

As a teacher, I will try to create a comfortable learning environment based on respect instead of fear. In order to achieve that, I must build a strong connection with my students, so that all of us can learn in a conducive and fun environment. In addition, communication is apparently an important key to an effectiveness of teaching and learning process. I have to be well-prepared for every lesson by planning my times and material efficiently to ensure that a successful lesson can be takes places. Moreover, I must also being up-to-date with the latest information ,global issues and getting hands with the latest technology which at the same times are the ways for me to improve myself.

Next, my students will becomes my main priority and I am aware that each of them has different level of proficiency. As a teacher, one of my roles is to coach and facilitates to them throughout the learning process by providing information and giving useful guidelines in order for them to achieve their goals and targets.

Lastly, I hope to impact the students that learning is a process that are never ends. For me actually, the learning process includes improving myself professionally. I also must always plan to experimental with different methods of presenting information and vary my teaching style while at the same times encouraging the critical thinking skills among the students in order to improve the learning process to become more effective and attractive.
