Float or Sink - Cool Science Experiment

From the video, we know that the presenter use hands-on science and inquiry-based to make learning more engaging and fun. The instructional design that he use is Behaviorism because he is showing to the viewer on how to make an experiment to see whether the cans float or sink.

Advantages of behaviorism; 1.Behavior is shaped quickly.

2.The leaner adapts to the environment.

3. Behavior can be measured.

4. Initially teaching machines were crude and cumbersome, but now programmes can be run on personal computers.

5.Student works at own pace. Disadvantages of behaviorism; 1.It does not account for all kinds of learning.

2. It does not explain some learning,research has shown that animals adapt their reinforced patterns to new information.

3. Whole class teaching does not suit slow or fast learners, just the average paced learners.

4.Analysis of a child’s behaviour takes time and involves careful observation and record keeping.

Week 1 - Introduction to CD ROM Based Multimedia Development

Assalam. Hi everybody.

Nice meeting all of you. Here some glimpse about me as a second semester student in Education Technology Faculty of UTM. My name is Ayatul Kauthar Bin Basemin @ Baseman. I'm working as a teacher cum ICT Coordinator in SK Taman Sri Pulai, Kulaijaya. A married man with 3 children, I'm still trying to manage my timetable to fit the schedule and datelines for my assignments. I'm teaching English language at my school for Year 4 pupils.

Since this is my first week in class, so I do hope I can catch up with environment and syllabus according to the schedule.

We learn about our first chapter which is ,"Multimedia Development Process" with Puan Norasykin, our lecturer for today's class.
