Think Like A Proton, Always Positive :)

Yesterday was a big day for my students of the previous batch as they received their examination results. Most of them were so happy and satisfied with the results, and so do I. 💃💃Their efforts paid off, burning the midnight oils was really worth it. My Module 1 class scored highest of all classes. 15 out 21 of them got A solid for Physics. As the lecturer who taught them for 1 whole semester , I'm elated with this good news.  It maybe sounds a bit arrogant, but I personally do not want to deny my own effort towards my students' achievement.🙈 Despite of my hectic timetable of my life, I managed to arrange extra session for my weak students. It is demanding as they really need favor on strengthening their content knowledge. It was quite a struggle for me to juggle with all responsibilities I have, the master assignments, work stuffs and non-stop things to do list, my children and also the charity work.                                           https://www.entrepr

Teachers always want the best for their students. They plan their lesson so that it will go smoothly and most importantly, majority of the students able to understand what is conveyed by the teacher. A few chapters in all subject typically require different approach so that students can easily grasp the content. In order to produce an effective lesson, I believe that all teachers need to to work hard for that in doing some innovation in teaching and learning, unless the lesson will be carried out in same way as always👀. From my almost 9 years experience of teaching, I admit that I could not have innovation lesson every time I teach, it is not easy! 😜 but possible. However, since the forth year of teaching, I had promised myself that I will do AT LEAST one innovation lesson in a week and I did it! It is better that nothing right? During the early years of teaching, I did not do much innovation in classroom as I focused more on strengthening the content. I just read books and searched

Personally, I think that almost all adults including teens have smartphones nowadays. Smartphones becomes the best friend anybody😄 When we wake up from sleep, we'll look for our phones either to check the message inbox or just to switch off the alarm! isn't it? Imagine we lost our phone for just 24 hours, our life might be miserable😝 That's how close are we to our smartphones. Due to this condition, many  sectors are making use of smartphones which benefits the development in their fields.   Same goes to education sector, many educators nowadays have started integrate smartphones into teaching and learning. I would like to introduce here a few apps/software  that we can use with smartphone or computer . I got to know all theses through a sharing session among my course mates in UPSI. The first category is video editing software that are  Edpuzzle  and  Playposit . Apart from video editing, both serve us free resources for teaching and learning. Then, we have  Stoodle

If we place a coin on top of a book, then we pull the book quickly, the coin will stay at the same position, isn't it? While travelling on a moving bus, we will experience a forward movement when the bus suddenly stop. These are typical examples that always been used by teachers at school in order to explain the concept of inertia.  But many students still do not understand how to relate inertia with mass.  Moreover, there is no proper experiment for inertia included in The Physics SPM curriculum. I found that most teachers just tell and ask students to just imagine the effect of inertia instead of showing them the real effect. Hence, I decided to design and develop an experimental inertia kit s shown in Figure 1.  Figure 1: Inertia Kit An innovative teaching material is required in order to visualize the concept of inertia among students and to improve their understanding. We build an Inertia Kit that is affordable and portable. Our innovation of Inertia Kit is able to d

Many schools nowadays encouraged into STEM based lesson. STEM that is the acronym for Science, Mathematics, Engineering and Mathematics subjects integrate into a lesson of particular subject. STEM lesson is often perceived challenging especially at the part of engineering. When we mention engineering, it means that there must be a process of designing a new thing in that lesson. In order to include engineering element in that lesson, Design Thinking is one of the approaches that we can use. It is a process of designing that consists of the processes of Emphatize, Define, Ideate, Prototype and Test and all these processes can be iterated.  In the process of constructing the prototype, there are various ways can be applied. Arduino is one of the options!. This kind-of-C++-programming electronic platform is an open source hardware and software. Arduino programming always comes with Arduino board, the apparatus that operates by reading the written code. In order to get the code for ou
