wahaza extra

So many things happen in past few days – this entry kind of delayed – but I was so impress with the outcome of the 3 days training.

On the third day, this is the last day for 1st batch of teachers attending the PPSMI training.

In the morning, we started with Ms Office 2007 environment introduction. Teachers were so impress with the user friendly of the software compared the previous version they use before.

All teachers concentrating on their laptop

Cikgu Maizion aka Cikgu Stress – doing her presentation – she was so deep in her notebook screen

Cikgu Nafsiah, Cikgu (will recall her name later) and Cikgu LilyAzwa can’t take her eyes of the screen. – I’ve really bad short term memory to remember some of the teachers name – so my apology.

They learn MS Word and MS PowerPoint for preparation on the presentation material.

With a little skill they get from SmartDraw, I kind of scared they would not have enough time to prepare a solid presentation.

But my perception was so wrong. They work so hard to explore many more other features I could not have time shared with them.

With MS Learning Essential topics and the template provided by MOE, all teachers so grateful. Next time they would able to standardise all their teaching materials throughout the whole years.

I’m explaining about the MS Learning Essential shortcut function

All teachers not even planning to go lunch although I’m insist they should have an hour break

Most of teachers stay on their sits to finish the presentation.

One teacher who one of the braves enough to come out alone was Cikgu Maizion – our Cikgu Stress!

At the beginning she having a little difficulty connecting the projector port;

Once she starts her presentation – I was impressed – she do a very impressive graphics of Floor Plan using SmartDraw

She explain how students may identify part of the house plan she have created

And she explain too how she created the floor plan from a basic Floor Plan using SmartDraw symbol

Next, she explain how she use Texture Fill features to create a different type of floor

And everybody voted her presentation as the best presentation that day but to me everybody was impressively outstanding when you look back at the beginning of the first day.
