Critical
Reflection 2
The
Use of ICT in the Materials Design
Information
Communication Technology (ICT) helps us a lot in organizing and
designing our materials for the syllabus. We use ICT in most materials that we
have.
The
Web-quest.
We
designed a web-quest for the learners in order to give them an assessment. This
is quite a challenge for us because we need to find interesting materials to be
included in the web-quest. We also need to take into account the learner’s
needs and accessibility to the ICT at their place. We use the search engines to
find suitable and interesting pictures to be included in the web-quest. We are
able to create an interesting and colourful web-quest that we think would be
of the learner’s interest.
Movie
Watching
We
picked a Japanese animated movie entitled “Spirited Away” in movie watching
slot. We found that the learners enjoy movie watching in the first camp.
However, we picked a movie that is not yet being shown on any TV station
available in Malaysia to ensure that the learners will not become bored
watching the same movie that they can watch in television. We found that using
this kind of ICT materials really help us in gaining the learner’s interest in
learning English language.
Theme
Song
The
audio system is another type of ICT that we use in developing the materials for
this syllabus. We try to incorporate the listening skills for the learners by
having the theme song for the camp.
The
use of ICT in designing the materials really helps us a lot. In my personal
opinion, by using the ICT in designing the materials, the learners will become
more excited knowing that there are lots of ways to learn and use English
language rather than having the normal classroom situation.
