week 14

now we are at last week for this semester!!!!....After completing all modul..now you can say me master of technology..hahahaha...juz joking

Tq for giving me chance to learn this course. This course had opened my eyes and activate my creative brain. The course is really helpful for me as future teacher...this course help me in thinking how to integrate technology and teaching. For you who do not learn this course..you better regret about that...hahahaha

week 13

For this week we have to do video editing.Video editing covered many aspects including to cut, grab, split and convert videos to audios. These are all important things that you need to know when talking about video editing. I fact, they are all basic skills when it comes to video editing as I believe there are many more to it.

For this module, we also had three tasks - individual task, pair work and group work. For the individual task, we had to find a video and extract pictures and audio from the video. For the pair work, we had to come up with a video of any theme and post it on the YouTube.

For the group work, we had to come up lesson plans for the 4 skills (reading, writing, listening and speaking) using the resources that we had developed with our video editing skills.

week 12 (E-Book)

E-BOOK?????


This week we were introduced to ebook. I thought it was a really complicated software but it turned out to be pretty easy. Don't be fooled by the word "eBook", it may sound difficult but it is not. And it doesn't require any software. All you need is Microsoft PowerPoint and you'll be good to go.

For eBook, we were told to come out with simple ideas that would be suitable for primary school pupils. The most important thing when designing eBooks for primary school children would be to ensure they are colorful, they have capturing music on the background and the images are sharp. It is a challenge to choose the mosts suitable images and music for the eBook because those are the main elements that would determine if the eBook is interesting enough for kids.




week 11



For this week's class, Pn Foziah shared with us about photo editing. She showed us some examples of photos that have been edited.

PHOTO EDITING???

Photo editing encompasses the processes of altering images, whether they be digital photographs, traditional analog photographs, or illustrations. Traditional analog image editing is known as photo retouching, using tools such as an airbrush to modify photographs, or editing illustrations with any traditional art medium. Graphic software programs, which can be broadly grouped into vector graphics editors, raster graphics editors, and 3d modelers, are the primary tools with which a user may manipulate, enhance, and transform images. Many image editing programs are also used to render or create computer art from scratch.

FEATURES OF PHOTO EDITING???

One of the prerequisites for many of the applications mentioned below is a method of selecting part(s) of an image, thus applying a change selectively without affecting the entire picture. Most graphics programs have several means of accomplishing this, such as a marquee tool, lasso, vector-based pen tools as well as more advanced facilities such as edge detection, masking, alpha compositing, and color and channel-based extraction.
