Bengkel Nvivo

5/11/2019

Alhamdulillah, bengkel NVivo Siri 2 telah selamat dijalankan. Walaupun jumlah kehadiran agak kurang kali ini, namun yang penting semua peserta mendapat penernangan yang jelas tnetnag faedah dan bagaimana menggunakan perisian ini secara lebih efektif dan efisyen.

Kudos to Hakkim - trainer yang dihantar oleh syarikat Statworks selaku vendor atau pembekal perisian Fakulti Pendidikan. Saya kira para peserta berpuas hati dengan cara penyampaian dan perkongsian bersahaja namun jelas itu.

NVivo boleh dimanfaatkan oleh semua penyelidik sama ada yang menjalankan kajian secara kualitatif mahupun kuantitatif. Namun demikian, masih ramai yang 'segan' hendak berjinak-jinak dengan perisian ini. Ayuh, buka minda kalian .. mari cuba mengenali NVivo kerana tak kenal maka tak cinta!

Mobile Apps Workshop

4/28/2019

Sudah sekian lama hasrat di hati untuk menganjurkan bengkel pembangunan Mobile Apps ini buat pelajar-pelajar UKM namun masa sentiasa memburu. Namun alhamdulillah, akhirnya berkesempatan juga hasrat tersebut dilaksanakan. Sememangnya bengkel ini menyasarkan jumlah peserta yang kecil untuk mempermudah interaksi serta maklum balas, justeru kehadiran sekitar 10 orang adalah jumlah yang ideal.

Antara aplikasi yang didedahkan kepada para peseerta termasuklay Appsgeyser, Appypie dan Thunkable. ALhamdulillah kesemua peserta berpuas hati dengan input yang diberi. Kudos untuk Dr. Siri yang telah sanggup datang untuk berkongsi maklumat kepada semua peserta.

Semoga ilmu yang diperolehi dapat digunakan untuk tujuan yang baik dan memberi manfaat buat semua insha-Allah.

Thinking Like and ID: Empowering Students' Ownership of Learning Using an AR-based application

2/15/2019

Perancangan untuk pengendalian bengkel ini sebenarnya telah berlangsung semenjak tahun lepas lagi namun di atas faktor masa dan komitmen yang lain, tarikh bengkel terpaksa dibawa ke tahun 2019. Berbanyak-banyak terima kasih buat kedekanan FST di atas jemputan ini, khususnya PM Dr Azmin, yang secara personal meminang saya ^__^

Melalui bengkel ini, saya berkongsi sedikit maklumat ringkas namun signifikan untuk dihadam oleh setiap yang bergelar pengajar - iaitu tentang Pendekatan Rekabentuk Bersistemik (Systemic Design Approach). Melalui konsep ini, pengajar bertindak sebagai 'doktor' yang bertugas mencari penawar kepada 'penyakit' yang membantutkan pembelajaran pelajar. Sememangnya tidak ada istilah one-size-fits-all apabila kita membincangkan tentang pendekatan dalam aktiviti pembelajaran kerana pelajar kita begitu berbeza dari sudut latar belakang dan prestasi akademik, gaya belajar, malah sikap serta persepsi terhadap sesuatu perkara. Justeru, kepelbagaian ini perlu diraikan dengan harmoni. Untuk menghadirikan situasi yang berpanca warna ini, seorang menuntut ketelitian dan pemikiran kritikal pengajar itu sendiri.

Di sinilah, instructional design memainkan peranan yang memberi panduan kepada proses mengenalpasti masalah sebenar (root couse of the problem), bagaimana mereka bentuk pengalaman pembelajaran dengan mengambil kira kepelbagaian pelajar dan seterusnya membuat penilaian terhadap keberkesanan aktiviti tersebut.

Adalah tidak kurang pentingnya untuk seseorang pengajar berfikiran reflektif bagi membolehkan proses penambahbaikan dilakukan dari semester ke semester.

Segmen kedua pula menyentuh tentang penggunaan Augmented Reality sebagai salah satu aktiviti yang boleh memberi empowerment kepada pelajar dalam menghasilkan sesuatu tugasan sekaligus melalui penglibatan yang berterusan dalam proses tersebut akan meningkatkan kefahaman serta self-esteem mereka.

Terima kasih buat semua rakan pensyarah yang sudi mendengar dan berkongsi pengalaman serta menunjukkan komitmen yang mantap. Mudah-mudahan ada bekal yang berguna, biarpun sedikit namun bermakna!

Augmented Reality as an Alternative Assessment

9/8/2018

This year is my 13th year of service in UKM but the funny things is, I haven't been to our very own Faculty of Health Science, located in Jalan Raja Muda Aziz, Kuala Lumpur until yesterday! Thanks to Dr Ismarulyusda and Prof Rohi, for the invitation ^___^ .. ah yes .. I enjoyed my travel on the monorail too!

One thing for sure, that to have augmented reality materials to work, it has to be associated with at least a good internet connection (if not a strong one). We faced a difficulty to scan the trigger images when we were working in the lab. I could see a frustration in the attendees' faces. Some had to go outside and try again. And the only phone that managed to get the videos through was the one belonged to one of of participants who used Digi line heheh! I am not selling Digi here guys! I was just feeling how lucky she was!

Overall, this group of participants has shown their enthusiasm to explore the use of AR in their teaching. Some had little experience using/scanning the AR materials, but had no actual experience developing one. However, I am grateful and proud that you guys were indeed, fast learners. I am positive that you will be able to re-imagine how to integrate AR in your teaching activities, or even to use it as part of students' assessments. Let them work collaboratively, give them empowerment to choreograph their interpretation of their understanding in their own unique ways. We will never expect what they could actually do!

Taking this opportunity, I wish everybody a success in exploring new ways to enhance students' learning experiences.

Till we meet again!

Feedly - a content curation tool

1/24/2018

Many of us may have heard about 'content creation' activities .. but 'content curation' might be something alien. This year I was given a chance again to share something handy at Nano Workshop, in conjunction with K-Novasi 2018 (my heartfelt thanks to Pengajaran UKM!) and this time around I chose to talk about Feedly.

It is an online tool (it comes in mobile apps too) that all of us can gain benefits from. All this while, I myself was more familiar with Storify - another cool content curation tool. Unfortunately I recently learned that this application will no longer be accessible starting from May, 16 :(

I have came across Feedly few months ago and gave it a try. I was amazed upon knowing how easy and practical this tool is. It helps us to reorganize the websites and sources that we frequently refer to and keep them in one place. Users may choose any sources that they want to read later and put the 'read later' label and all the labelled sources will fall under 'Read Later' menu. What a great tool!

And yes, alternatively, users may integrate Feedly with Pocket, another smart app that can be used as a 'read later' site. I have Pocket on my smartphone too, so whenever I am on the go and have much time, I will go to Pocket and start reading the sources that I wanted to. So why don't you give it a try?

Happy curating guys! ^___^

See you there!

Thank you and Happy AR-ing!

Alhamdulillah all praise to Allah The Almighty who gave us a time to gather and experience the process of developing Augmented Reality material! I am truly thankful for your attendance and resilience to be there until the end of the session. Congratulations! You can now claim yourself as AR developers! ^__^ Please do not hesitate to contact me should you have any queries!
