Reflection Week 10

         
MOOC



           For this week, Miss Amreet asked all of us what the learning trend nowadays is. Besides, she also asked us whether we need teacher or not. After that, she told us that myguru is Learning Management System (LMS) which is also a type of learning trend. She said that she will lock the door next week as many of my classmates came late to class. After surfing the net, I have learnt that eLearning and mobile learning are learning trends used nowadays.

Later, she showed us a video on mobile learning. It was interesting and worthwhile watching. In the video, children with autism can’t speak but with mobile learning, they can communicate using their mobiles. I have never thought that it would be essential and useful for children with autism. I learned not to take things for granted and appreciate the little things in life.

            Again, she asked what the other trends of learning are. One of it is Open educational resources (OER). At times they are free. Other than that, blended learning is a type of rends of learning where everything is mixed. Lastly, Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) where the teacher will post the videos online and students do the exercises. The platforms of MOOC are Coursera, Udemy, Khan’s Academy. Furthermore, Coursera is free of charge. Later, every leaders of the storyboard group met up with Miss Amreet to tell her the updates of the storyboard.


            My group members and I have already written the script so all we have to do now is to find a platform to complete this assignment. I am truly grateful to have such cooperative members that are willing to spend their time thinking of the storyline and doing the script later.
