Masterplan1, 2 & 3 has built a huge educational system for linking teachers, pupils and parent. When ESE, MOE Masterplan is disseminating in school. For example, information platform(LCD).
When ESE, I always looked for the resource for my teaching, like edumall, lead.com, youtube into my Microsoft Power Point. I felt that my pupils love the class when using the ICT, that because Chinese language is not boring already, they were willing to learn and answer the question enthusiastically. Definitely, ICT makes the Chinese language learning different, be more interesting and quite lively.

Masterplan1,I have seen teachers would digest from website and combine it with the topic, it is linkages between the school and the world around it. In the past , the traditional processes in education is learning then spelling, but now spelling can be changed different. Then , training the pupil have a creative thinking, lifelong learning and social responsibility, that means is not limited to textbook. Make the administrative and management be better in the education system.
Masterplan2, our school IT HOD integrated the infrastructure requirements and digital resources, borrow it to teacher and pupil, encourage them do presentation on the assembly, then could be a story or experiences in their life which to ensure that all schools achieve a certain level of ICT use. Our Chinese language HOD will demand teacher guid and discuss with the pupils to do a assessment about extracurricular reading material in the ICT time which carried out with searching data from website.Then award the pupil who done it well. It can achieve higher levels of ICT use in education to teacher and pupils.

MasterPlan3 gives teachers a chance to trying to put away the text books, especially for out of class. Pupils are then asked to associate the Chinese character they have learned with real life.Using the Lead.com, pupils can post their pronunciation, photo, then share on the website, to hit the goal of self-directed learning. After that, pupils and teachers are hit the goal of collaborative learning through and through the community's interaction, these ideas are refined and developed fully.
I think Masterplan 1,2 &3 has given a good benefits to school, teacher, pupils & parents but it also have to face the problem , like our school is not enough the time to push towards the goal as examination.
I believe that when teacher put in his/her effort in preparation of lesson, he/she will get the reward from the response and enthusiasm of pupils during the lesson. With the sufficient usage of ICT, teacher can guide and extend the learning of pupils beyond the textbook.
ReplyDeleteI think we always have time constraint but ICT tools can help us in saving time. The management is in our hands and we should leverage ICT tools on time management too.
ReplyDeleteBy using ICT tools, pupils get a better understanding to the subjects that they learn. As you mentioned, they can associate the Chinese characters they have learned with real life. It gives them the sense of participation to Chinese as what they've learnt are close to their own life.
ReplyDeleteI think along with Masterplan 1,2 and 3, schools in Singapore are step by step equipped with ICT infrastructures and IT savvy teachers, which will help the pupils' in meaningful learning.
