Teacher as a facilitator

In learning process assessment students is important. Assessment is not only assess students from teacher, but student can assess their friends, it’s called peer assessment.  Student can put opinion or feedback about work  your  friends. After teacher give assess , he/she has to give feedback for students, in order to could better in the next.  Feedback use teacher to response what students have done. Surely the feedback which can given by teacher has to positive feedback, which can motivate students to more develop their thinking.

For example when I was in senior high school in chemistry subject, when we have mistakes from my answer in exercise or our understanding, she always direct us to right understanding, she give feedback for us. What we will do, and how to solve problems. Instead of that, in assess, teacher has to know how a way to see students understanding. Teacher can use question as a inducement, students are not realize that they did assess. In there, teacher can see do their students understand or not about the lesson. and then after that teacher become a facilitator to guide them.

Feedback and question types : E- Reflection

wow this time I am happy to follow the lessons PETA because the topics we discussed  I think is very interesting. The topic of feedback and question types. I think both things are important to be learned and understood by teachers and prospective teachers, as these are closely related in the system of assessment will be conducted by a teacher. Feedback is  from teachers to students, where effective feedback is done every assessment. This is done so that students are not confused in receiving feedback that is given by the teacher. question types like I do not need to explain anymore because I'm sure you all have been very understanding because we've ever done role play about it.

         Regarding both of these things, I want to share something with friends, when I do school experience I ever the find a teacher, where the teachers  a gives assignment to the students without giving any feedback , so that most students' confusion in confront these subjects and the climax is 99% of students  get scored under 50. And these teachers, when there are students who ask for lack of understanding on the topic being discussed, he just told students to find out for yourself. So that makes students become frightened and reluctant to ask because the response given is not as they had hoped. Perhaps this only can I sharing for all. I hope you and me did not become a teacher like I mentioned earlier. We can make a students to find their own answers to their questions, but it could not hurt too sometimes we be able give a direct answers to their questions so that students feel more valued.....^_^

Khoirul umam 2010110038- 11th PETA

Like usually I write my reflection with first impression on beginning and note on the last.  My first impression: game?? (Lemparan2 bola ke kotak). And….. actually ms Lydia want to showed that feedback should give on last session or class, because if feedback accumulated and the teacher give all feedback for student on the last Mid or Semester, then the feedback has no benefit. Like representative by Jeffri when he want catch 5 balls simultaneously. And there is no balls which caught. This is very great representative from ms Lydia. But I think either feedback on last session or feedback on the last Semester has the advantages of each with the objective of each.

We also learn about Questioning. I write down on my note that questioning is the most useful strategy a teacher can employ to assess the progress of instruction. Questioning gives much information for the teacher. Such as about student learning, lets students articulate their own thoughts, reinforces important concepts and behaviors, influences the pace of instruction ect. With Questioning can built interaction between teachers and students, and this interaction is the most important part which must there is do in the class. Because, as well as anything the teacher has lesson plan, but he have no interaction with student, I thinks their class will be disorganized.

Note:
Think smart.
Think creative.
Think innovative.
But must have interaction with students.

Reflection About F & Q

Now, PETA course has talked about F & Q (Feedback & Question). We have known what is assessment and the function of it. One of assessment's function is for feedback not only for students but also for teacher. For students, it can improve their understanding about the lesson for next session. For example, when teacher ask students to make task (presentation or paper & pencil test), we as teacher have to give feedback for them about their strenght/weakness. But, teacher shouldn't give feedback after all of students' task in the last meeting of semester. Because it will not improve students' understanding. We can give feedback after we analyzing students' work. About the question, don't give negative responses because it will be decrease students' motivation.

Feedback...Feedback

Asking Question and Giving Feedback, that is the point of lesson the day. The lecturer way giving us abstract of the feedback is really interesting. I think that is one of the extraordinary ways, creative, innovative, and effective. I was thinking what methods else for teaching students about mathematics which is complex of numerals. Hmm, I was also enjoying the course because the flow and connection of each activity was really cool and clear. In each activities, the lecturer ask about our opinion of the activities, and she success guide us to the main topic which is also reflect on her methods. She taught about asking question, and she has done the way of asking question on her teaching methods. I really interested of it. “Miss you has inspired me a lot”.

Back to the topic, asking question and giving feedback. In my opinion, it is great for giving direct feedback for students performance, because the students was enhance by the feedback and will do the best next . Giving direct feedback will being the teacher assessment and also students’ assessment of themselves. It was really nice meeting. I’m waiting for the next meeting.

Dwi Sintia_2010110020_Mathematics_Section B_PETA_E-Reflection about Feedback

Accoarding to Outline of SENLEF report of (http://www.heacademy.ac.uk/ourwork/learning/assessment/senlefer), which about “Student Enhanced Learning through Effective Feedback”, it is have ways to achieved it, such as through : 1. Briefing Paper on formative assessment and feedback and self-regulation of learning, 2. Conceptual model, 3. 7 principles of good feedback practice, 4. Simple strategies, 5. 50 case studies of good practice, and 6. Publication available on HEA website. From the matter that, there is a key message, which related with it, is a “Formative assessment and feedback by others can only have an impact on learning when it influences a student’s own self-regulatory processes - whereby learners set goals” (adapted from Boud, 1995).

So, in the learning, a teacher must be creative to make a condition in the classroom become interactive between students and teacher. One of to make an interactive between students and teacher, which the teacher must be creative to make good question to lure interest the students and understanding of them. And of that is also a way to a teacher able do assessment toward the students. Apparantely, when the teacher gave a commendation or feedback to the students, then, the teacher must be also giving an explaination with clear, why is that the students can be able an approbation of the teacher. So, the students will be able know about what must be they do to do something become better.

Accoarding to my reflection, when I still become a student in the senior, secondary, or elementary school, which commonly my teacher as average, my teacher is very seldom in the giving feedback toward their students. My teachers is only gave feedback in the end semester, and that only gave when distribution raport. So, when do learning in the classroom my teacher is seldom give feedback toward their students. And I hope, in the course of PETA, I can learn more deeply about feedback, and I hope, I can apply my knowledge about feedback and can apply toward my students in the future.

feeddback and questioning

in our last class in PETA, we have learned about feedback and questioning,
in the first, we have played "lempar-lemparan bola" that used by Ms Lidya to give us know by our self about how a good feedback is.....
as we may know that feedback is one of important tool in learning processes that can be used to know the students' thinking developmental and how much the progress is...
as my experience in my high school, there was a teacher that give his commented in my exam result with positive way and he make me confident to make the better. in other way,, feedback that delivered by good way can be motivate the students to learn harder. with this one,,,as a teacher candidate who know about feedback, i think i will very need this tool in my future to make my students better and better...
as a teacher candidate i also know that give questioning is one of important way to communicate both of lesson and students' understanding. using questioning in learning processes is important to confirm students' understanding, and as a teacher candidate we need to know how to give positive questioning to make students motivated by us...
