everythng jz as usual, except more time is require to do some reading and mayb soon, journal searching for assgment (yea, im still very lazy to start doing it)....currently cutting off myself from facebook and msn, trying this for 1 day...thr 4 hours left be4 i gona reconnect myself bac(the time i writing this post)...hah!of cox, i still read news and blogging, on9...what, u think i can post this blog frm the middle of ocean??
3 weeks, what did i learn?generally, ppl haf vry wrong perception in psychology...dun even mention specific field like educational psychology..since most of my frend knw im studyin edu psy, occasionally they will ask me, whu did u 'psycho' edi, u dun hypnotize me, dun read my mind...the only reaction i can gif is -.-|||
no, psychology is not bout mind readin, not hypnotize, and sry i totally dun understand wad this word 'psycho' mean...so wad is psychology??mayb u should go do some reading at wikipedia (recently im always surfing and reading on wikipedia, purposely searching smthng or jz find random article)..the overview is, edu psy is a scientific field concern with development, evaluation and application of principle and theory of human learning, in educational field...in other word, hw human mind and thinking develop and function....
so i hope next time i wont find myself trying to answer some weird or stupid question!hehe...
talking bout 'stupid' this word...thr occur a discussion in class today....again, of cox, related to teaching profession again(im studying in education faculty, wad do you expect?)...the scenario is like this:
as we studying bout brain anatomy and function today, my lect suddenly ask, 'like we usually say USE YOUR BRAIN, so does we really didnt use our brain?'den, sitting far behind, a few teacher, whu teach like 10 or 20 years or more (1 of thm is almost 57 years old) say, 'yea, when we teach till fustrated, when we scold student, in fact smtime we scold them using word like STUPID, MORON, COW DUNG etc., smtime we dun use stupid cox student understand it, so more complicated word like moron, cow dung as student wont understand...den the discussion on these word continue, which i didnt listen much as i keep thinking on these word and its implication on students...be4 they finish discuss, i heard those teacher say, smtime jz say USE YOUR USELESS BRAIN......
den i feel like...wtcrab, all of u taking education psychology, edi 3rd or 4th semester...still dun understand that these words DO haf implication on student...ya, student do becm naughty, and smtime required some disciplinary action, bt when u scold, the wording use mz be careful...im jz studying for 3 weeks, learning all the psychology theory, and it is obvious to me that, everythng, frm action and gesture to language and word really affect human development...short term mayb be demoralizing to the student, long term may affect the cognitive development of the student...
worse still, when these teacher discuss bout this issue, they seem vry happy and taking joy on insulting their students....i remember one of my lect say, in western country, they dun even use disability this word on their student, they dun even term their student performance as FAIL...saying fail this word is insulting...my gosh...they always blame student for nt understanding and graping the knowledge, bt they nvr realise, when student fail to understand certain thng, is the teachers' FAULT??where they DONT KNOW how to teach the student effectively??
yes, DONT BLAME THE STUDENT when they fail, but BLAME URSELF for failing to teach them!
TEACHERS OF MALAYSIA....
T_T
no wonder the problem in sch nvr get solve, as teacher itself is unprofessional and low quality...epic sadness!
spoiler: this does nt imply on ALL teacher in msia, but im sure that at least half of the teacher would be like this
>>currently trying to compare malaysia education system with singapore and western education system...hope sm1 frm sg can explain hw sg system work =p
