One whole week watching movies

"Lecturers won't be around this week!!"

"Hurray!!"

Is it unofficial holidays?

Too bad, it will never happen after the ISO is introduced.

Is it not a waster of time attending classes without lecturers?

They says student-centered. How??

Time is precious, it should pass by instilling knowledge.

Watching MOVIESSS

we are to watch movies for the whole week.

Fortunately, the first movie is "Freedom Writer". it is the first time that the whole class enjoy a movie! everyone is so punctual when it is screened at the second lesson. the students in the movie attracts my attention. the life of the students are so impressive! they are living in fear and nobody care about them, not even in school or home. their only hope is to survive in the violent society. this imply and give an image to me about Malaysian education system. we are having integrated school system. Why we are not in their situation??

Apart from that, this movie highlights that low proficiency students and second language learners can develop, change and improved! it is a matter of time, interest and attentions the students need. thus, it is important that the teacher realises them.



For the second movie,"The History Boys". it is quite boring. i nearly slept off most of the time. in the movie, there is an issue that i seen:

"what the teacher teaches is what the students learn"

in the movie, the students have high language proficiency. they have strong foundation that will enhance their bright future. the teacher plays the role in putting more information for the students. most of the time, teacher gives outline and students are working on it independently. it is a student-centered learning classroom. However, this movie also highlights the selfishness of school in wanting the students to score for the fame of the school. there are a lot of morality values in the movie, it is just too draggy.
