Wao Wao Wao! Today I'm not late to class! hehe. Even my friend is not late too. When he enter the class i sang him a song 'There can be miracleeeeeee¬ when you believe...'. Im sorry bobo, hopefully you are not mad at me.
First thing i did was apologise to my lecturer for not completing my forum. I just simply don't know why, i always cant google things that i wanted to. I still remember, last time my friend ask me to google something, they got it but i cant. Lol! Maybe googling need lucks too? NAH¬ I think its just because i key in the wrong keyword for it, But luckily, our lecturer give us another week for this forum. But also thank you lecturer for discussing the forum in the class and taught us how to google, i even pinned some of the websites she show us.
This week class is about...

| Our topic of the day. |
This picture look simple but actually it means alot. This is what students want us, educators to know. During the class, lecturer gave us a few situation about if students behave so, what will and should we do? I still believe, when student likes you, they will eventually like your subject too. :) Although sometime you might need to use a little of your pocket money but... Well, it really doesn't cost alot you know? Just take it as you bought a new dress ;)
After knowing what students wants us to know, lecturer do gave us another question for our blog post this week. It is '10 things that students do not want the educators to do'. In my opinion, i try to arrange from the lowest to highest but i failed to do so. I think that all 10 also very important and educators must not do to them.
1. Do not play favourite and least favourite. Some educator might have their favourite student and they will tend to give much more attention and caring to the same particular student. For example, only allow them to make noise, only allow them to hand in homework later than the others or even agree on what they said. While for least favourite student, the educator will keep on find fault on that student and some even keep on disagreeing on the same particular student's opinion and answer just simply the educator himself or herself do not like the student. Therefore, PLEASE DO NOT PLAY FAVOURITE IN CLASS.
2. Do not make fun of the student no matter its about their personal issue, physical looking, their act and never ever make fun of their friends and especially family. Students really do not want educators to do so. Not even a simple joke. :)
3. Don't get overly involved in their personal or family issues. It is true that we need to care and know them well but sometimes, some student do not want to disclose themselve that much. So when we ask more than a time for the same question and do not get any reply from the student, maybe we should stop asking and respect their privacy.
4. Go crazy with handouts and especially with very short deadline. I think students will really try their very best to skip your class. It is okay with alot of homework but make sure we give them enough time to complete the work.
5. WEEKLY test! Wao, I myself as a student is scare of this too, I don't think student want their educators to do so to them but i know weekly test is actually a good way to improve your students. but, depends situation will be better.
6. Lose temper. Students do not want educators to lose temper on them especially without reason or maybe its just the educators themselve having a bad day. Students are innocent, please control your temper and do not bring your own emotion to class.
7. Scream at them. Students do not actually like it. Let me ask you, how do you feel when your teacher started screaming at you in the class and even infront of all your classmates? Will you actually feel good? Even a simple 'KEEP QUIET', is a no no.
8. To many physical involvement, some student do not like their educators touching them too much. they will feel uncomfortable. Indirectly, when they are 'scare' of you, this will affect them not dare to ask you any more questions even when they have doubt about their academic.
9. Physical abuse. This include canning them, slapping them, punch their arm and etc. Even though canning students is a common sight, but students do not wants educators to do so too. I also don't like being canned by my teacher, what about you? Maybe you enjoyed it? hahaha. Just joking.
10. Last but not least! Don't give up on your student. I understand some student seems 'incurable' but never ever give up on them my friends. Do not lost hope on them. Everyone is born for a reason and everyone has their purpose, remember this, they might not excel in their academic but might excel in sometime else. :]
I thinks thats all from me today! Tired of typing. hahhaha. Laziness overcome me now. =p

DeleteHey there! Totally agreed with the points you stated. Even I do not want the educators to do these things. Great job and keep it up my friend. Take care :)
ReplyDeleteThank you ash! And take care too! ^_^
DeleteHey Chu Yue Ling!
ReplyDeleteAbout the pocket money, I don't think you have to spend a lot maybe you can create with something that is reusable such as bottle or tin can? Hehehe, nowadays money is not enough... even 50 ringgit feels like 10 ringgit only. Huhuhu T_T
I do agree with your first point about play favourite and least favourite. Lot's of educators are like that nowadays! Why should be like when all student are just the same? I've been in that situation before and I really don't like it... I feel the racism and unfair over there during my school time until now. For the teacher outside, please do not treating you student like this. Just please don't.
About your point number 3, getting involved more on student's family issues. I do agree with that, I know maybe some of the teacher's intentions are good but some of the family don't feels like that. It depends on the family whether will accept it or not.
Thank you very much for the suggestion Mimi and for the feedback too! ^-^
DeleteNice post Yue Ling~ Good job!!!

DeleteHi there Good Job done Yue Ling.. I believe students will really like you if you follow all the steps..
