Group 2A-4, Activity 3: Word processor for lesson preparation (Classroom materials)

1-12-11

The use of word processor for preparing classroom materials is a very tedious but fulfilling task. It may at times be easier to think of what you want to do, than to actually write it. However, whether it's creating a test, designing an activity sheet or simply organising and sending notes to your students word processor is an excellent tool.

I believe although we use the 'normal' Microsoft Office programmes, there are still other programmes that exist with a lot more features that may assist us in preparing lessons in the classroom.

I hope that on completion of this module that we will have gained from the experience of using 'word processor' by attempting the activities, working on the assignments, sharing documents and information via different mediums and collaborating among each other, through all this.

As educators it is very important that we allow our students to reflect upon their learning, as a result we may design activities that may foster this.

In concentrating on Activity 3. Which asked to prepare a document for an actual classroom activity, such as notes, a test, a learner-centred worksheet, etc. I was a little stumped. Why? Well, at this point in time the semester is coming to the end, therefore it is now the study period week in preparation for the upcoming two weeks of exams. As a result, my class material document is a reflective activity.

N.B.: Some class materials may be collected and/or graded by the teacher, whereas others are just for the learner to check his/her process or understanding of a topic, concept, lesson, etc.
