Abyss of Life

         People usually experiencing abyss in their lifetime. Abyss in finances, abyss in family, abyss spiritually and also abyss when u'r really sick and sometimes if each of this happens the whole being and family really suffers.. I am encourage with the person i really know, he is a missionary and his wife is very ill. u can see in his eyes that he is really disturb with such abyss, but within him I can feel that he is fighting for his family. I admire him more knowing the fact that during abyss there are only two ways, it's either u'll gonna stay in abyss or moving forward to another stage of life which is hope because u'r holding to the Source. I pray that each of us, when we experience abyss in our lives, don't forget to hold on to the Source which is God who understands us more and for us to see the next stage of our life. Hold with Hope! Godbless everyone..

Understand if the world can't understand

             If you are affected of one person because of his/her behavior towards you  don't be self-centered or think that u are as if a victim but rather understand the person, he/she might have a big problem..  and after that u'll surely say, now I know, I understand him better.

Smart objective for smart educators

        Most of the time educators forget and fail to make good objective(s) in their unit plan and lesson plans. I have learned that when doing objective most especially in a lesson plan, i must be aware of SMART! It must be specific, measurable, attainable, relevant and time bound. By this, we have clear direction to go like a map and gives us limitation or scope to go. Through this, we as educator it helps a lot for evaluation whether we hit our target for the day. Smart educator have smart objectives!

Blogging for postmodern students

I had so much fun in learning new things most especially making my own blog. Thanks for the help my co-educators and also Prof. Dr. Son. You guys really motivate me to do new things!

students and educators discusion

            The first meeting of CTM class was a great day for me as a student and as new educator as well. I was excited and nervous at the same time to meet everyone so I came too early. I thought the professor in this class is too old and too serious that could give tension or pressure, but it was a relief that Dr. Son is fun to be with while learning in a formal class setting. I am also having fun and learning from my classmates during discussions or simply sharing their own thoughts and experiences in the teaching ministry, formal or non-formal setting. What a learning experience and environment it is! Overall impression, it was great. I really love CTM class!

            I learned new things and I should say it widens my perspective on the role of the teachers. As a teacher I am not just an instructor, but also facilitator and counselor. We also discussed in the first meeting the difference of Youth and Adult learning style. And indeed there is a big difference. Dr. Son ended the class with an inspirational video entitled the heart of the teacher.

            Now, as I reflected on the things I’ve learned from the first meeting in CTM class, my first question is that, how would I be able to use these in my teaching ministry. First, as Christian educator I must know my role in the lives of my students, knowing them deeply would be the demand so that I could make sense in every lessons to their daily lives. Secondly, as Christian educator I must know how to execute some creative teaching styles/techniques according to my student's age because there are differences in the learning style of children, youth and adult. Based on the differences of adult and youth learning style, as a teacher I should know what methodologies I’m going to use. And lastly, what strike me the most in the video, as a teacher I should have a big heart in creating patiently a work of art within my students, and to achieve that i should create first a good learning environment, an environment that they will never be afraid to express themselves.
