REFLECTIONS OF ONLINE MODULE (MaST

PROGRAM) ON MY THINKING

BY: TONI AMOS - THOMAS

• IT OPENED MY EYES TO

HOW TECHNOLOGY HAS

EVOLVED. I CAN NOW

THINK OUTSIDE OF THE

BOX AND NOT JUST USE

THE “CHALK AND TALK”

METHOD.

• IT SHOWED HOW I CAN

USE VIDEO

PRESENTATIONS IN MY

CLASS

• IT SHOWED THAT A NUMBER OF

USEFUL ONLINE SITES ARE AVAILABLE

FOR ANY MATHEMATICAL TOPIC.

• IT SHOWED HOW

PREPARING A LESSON

ON A VIDEO AND

POSTING IT ONLINE IS

VERY COST EFFECTIVE

AND PRACTICAL.

• IT SHOWED HOW USING

DIFFERENT TEACHING

METHODOLOGIES CAN

INHANCE LEARNING.

• IT SHOWED THAT

HAVING A NETWORK OF

TEACHERS TO SHARE

THEIR IDEAS AND

EXPERIENCES IS EASIER

THAN TRYING TO DO

THE WORK BY YOURSELF.

IMPACT OF THE ONLINE

MODULE ON MY

TEACHING PRACTICE.

• IT ALLOWED ME TO BE

MORE SENSITIVE AND

BETTER PREPARED FOR

STUDENTS WHO LEARN

DIFFERENTLY OR

SLOWER LEARNERS.

• I WILL DIRECT THE WEAKER STUDENTS

TO ONLINE SITES SO THAT THEY CAN

DO EXTRA WORK ON THEIR OWN AND

EMAIL IT TO ME SO THAT I CAN

CORRECT IT.

• I WANT TO START INCORPERATING

VIDEOS, GAMES OR EVEN ACTING IN

PRESENTING MY LESSONS.

• IN USING THE ONLINE

SITES I WILL GIVE EACH

CHILD THE ADVANTAGE

OF HAVING A HANDS

ON APPROACH IN

UNDERSTANDING THE

TOPICS.

• I THINK THAT INCORPORATING

THE INFORMATION THAT I

HAVE LEARNED FROM THIS

ONLINE MODULE WILL HAVE

THE CHILDREN INTERESTED TO

LEARN AND THEY WILL ALSO

SEE THAT I CARE ABOUT THEIR

EDUCATION SO MUCH THAT I

AM WILLING TO GO THE

EXTRA MILE TO REACH THEM

WHEREVER THEY ARE.
