PS 0128 Exercise 12/3/2009

1. How can you initiate, sustain and direct activities in an ICT lesson to motivate students?

By giving them extrinsic and intrinsic motivation. For example, by giving them work on importing images in Microsoft words and create a story from the image they have imported. For example the image they have chosen is the pink heart (love shape). The image also play important role in motivation. For example, images of Mickey mouse, Pooh and any cartoon character. This will give them interest in the lesson. From the pink heart, the student might write “I love my parents so much. I also love my brother and sister.” during ICT class I just assist them on how to insert the image and how they write the sentences properly. During the lesson I will go around to check on how they are doing by praising them for those who have done it right for example, very good, well done and I also facilitate on the weak student and give them motivation like “you can do it, try again” without pushing them. And the same time say good things about the work they have done.



2. How can you help students plan, monitor and modify their cognition to develop self-regulated learning of students in ICT?

By giving them interactive activity. For example: recognizing the different types of storage devices. The activity is using the Microsoft Power point through IWB. The question is going to be in MCQ and mix and match question. They raise their hand when they want to answer the question. I will ask the student to go in front and pick the correct answer. Each answered question will give “well done” with animated image and if its wrong “good effort, try again” with animated image. With this activity they will monitor and modify their answer and this will develop their self-regulated learning.
