Weeky 5- Reflection of Vyew

I like Vyew and is very interesting to share something with others. However, I think my last week experience was over too much because everyone wanted to control the screen. I could only see my screen kept changing and flipping over and over. The whole hours made my eyes sour. I think it might be ok if only one person controls the whole meeting, or just the instructor. When I started paying attention on something, the page changed by someone else. But I like the video conferencing thing, the instructor could be able to see if the students were really sitting in front of the computer or not.
I will think it might be a very good place to do an online presentation for each individual since you can do a lot of things up there to perform your project to the whole class without going to virtual classroom.
Overall, Vyew is good but is only good for a few people at each time, or only one controls the system. Otherwise, it is a kind of overwhelming.

Week 4

I personally think both analysis and design can’t be separated from each other. Analysis will make yourself analyze the details of your project, and also a clear analysis will make learners/reader get a better understanding of what your purposes are in this piece of model. In addition, if you can make the analysis clear, you should be able to create a good design of your project for people to learn from it. So I think both of them are connected to each other in order to make something organized and neat.
For the “Information R/Evolution” video, I feel like if you can provide a detailed and clear instruction for learners to explore, the steps will definitely be reduced and might turn out a better effect. For example, in my CECS 5100 course, the Professor doesn’t really provide a neat instruction when asking student to do programming stuff. If he can provide a clear direction to show us how to do something, we might spend lesser time to figure it out by ourselves.

week 3- Analysis

I have learned that analysis is just help reader/students break a complex topic or material to a small portion so that it might be easier to understand and gain a better understanding of it. It is like when we learn to write a code for a website, and we have to start to build a small part, keep testing it, and then spread out the code. For my lesson, my client and I would create lessons by helping Chinese people to build up their confidence while learning English. Everything has a start point. After you challenge the start point, the learning progress will begin to grow. We would first of all have students to differentiate the noun, verb, and adj, etc words in order to form a complete sentence.

Week 2- My Teaching Theory & Bloom's Taxonomy

Sometimes, I feel confused about which style I should learn while I am teaching. I was growing up in a traditional education system. The teacher was the only one speaker during the class, and students were always sitting and listening. Compared to American style, the teacher is not the only one talking in the class and everyone has a right to speak up their thoughts. Especially, during my senior year, all my classes were fun and we walked around the classroom to do various experiments in order to improve our teaching.
My theory is very simple. The purpose is to make my students really get something from my lesson. I would like to create different stations for my lesson so that they can fit all students needs. I will think every students is equally smart. Sometimes the teacher just needs to find a right way for some students to pick up and catch up others. For instance, my math was terribly bad when junior years. My parents were depressed and could not believe how stupid I was. They tried so many math school and spent so much money finding different excellent teachers to help me with math. However, all of them would not work for me. They decided to bring me to the United States, and surprisingly I got A on all of my math works. Finally, my parents felt grateful to bring me here.
I remembered that I used Bloom's Taxonomy a lot when I learned to generate lesson plans. My Professors always distributed a sheet to us that had Bloom's Taxonomy-Knowledge, Comprehension, Application, Analysis, Synthesis, and Evaluation-on it. They would ask us to use the suggested words into our lesson plan. Bloom's Taxonomy really helped a lot when I was a beginner.
