My Teaching and Learning Philosophy

My photo
Teaching means learning. When we teach, we are questing for knowledge. Hence, learning. Thus, teaching is a manifestation of lifelong learning. Being a teacher, is a lifelong learner, a learning designer. All this is due to my philosophy of "Life is a redox"; when one gives, another has to take, otherwise, life won't exist. Teaching is a devotion, not just a profession.

"According to": guna jangan sembarangan


Kawan2 yg sdg semak pelaporan pelajar, jika boleh, pesan pd pelajar spt mana di bawah ini:

‘According to’ (Menurut) x boleh simply use especially dlm tesis/ academic paper. ‘According to’ must be followed by scholar(s), meaning, the writer must cite scholar yg ada h-index and memang pakar dlm bidang tu. 

...Cth yg salah: ‘according to Norliza (2016),  problem-based learning ....

Who is norliza, is she guru/sifu/scholar in PBL? How many papers have she published (and being cited) in this area? (Tgk dlm google scholar/ SJR or the like utk tgk h-index). 

Kalau nak refer jugak kpd Norliza yg bukan sifu PBL tp findings dr paper dia tu menarik sesangat ttg PBL, jadi kita katalah,

 ‘based on a study by norliza (2016) who worked on a theory developed by bla bla bla, she found that teachers who exercised PBL approach in their teaching process ... this finding suggest a contradicting impact on students in contrast to the findings suggested by xxx (researcher or study lain plk).
According to  Piaget (2010), PBL approach used by a teacher could be the promoting factor towards bla bla bla however in some circumstances ... bla bla bla... 
The scenario has fuelled debate in...’


*In a nutshell, “According to’ must be used sparingly, and must refer to ‘real scholar’ .*

Maksud Scholar tu students kena faham betul2. 


Ini hasil workshop academic writing yg saya sering ikut. Ramai students x faham ni. Tugas kita betulkannya.

Wallahua’lam... betulkan jika saya salah... sini kita semua penyelia penyelidikan dan doctorates, kita blh buat percambahan minda bersama2
