Modelling
"Scientific modelling is a scientific activity the aim of which is to make a particular part or feature of the world easier to understand, define, quantify, visualize, or simulate. It requires selecting and identifying relevant aspects of a situation in the real world and then using different types of models for different aims, such as conceptual models to better understand, operational models tooperationalize, mathematical models to quantify, and graphical models to visualize the subject. Modelling is an essential and inseparable part of scientific activity, and many scientific disciplines have their own ideas about specific types of modelling.There is also an increasing attention to scientific modelling in fields such as philosophy of science, systems theory, and knowledge visualization. There is growing collection of methods, techniques and meta-theory about all kinds of specialized scientific modelling."

Prof Sopia also introduced used on modelling. My group had choose to present on virtual labs in transpirations topic as our modelling project.

As you can see from the picture above, this virtual labs is very interesting and helping teacher to empower students transpiration concept. There is a table provided for the students to fill in their data each time they change the variables. There's also calculator provided in this modelling for student to calculate the rate of transpiration immediately after they got the data.

I am very excited and interested in this modelling and virtual lab. So, after the class I've explored more and find out one links that might help the teachers out there to used virtual labs in their Teaching and learning at schools. 

Here is the link.. and check it out guys :)

 Assalammualaikum semua,.. okay..reflection for 2nd class PGDE 7043 with our beloved Mdm Dini 😘 resuming on types of assessment in educations.. last class we were introduced on types of assessment but for this class we were introduced with period of assessment and method of assessment. As mentioned before, assessment aims to measure students achievement and progress.  Assessment can be carried out continuously or at the end of the course.  Assessment that carried out continuously called as continuous assessment while assessment that been carried out at the end of the course called as final assessment . both have their methods and techniques to be carried out. and hopefully I will tell you guys on a other posting 😊 There are also several methods of assessment which are called (1) objective assessmen t and ( 2) subjective assessment. Objective assessment used to evaluate response with clear criteria and scale used normally ordinal and likert scale. However, subjective ...

Simulations "Simulation  is the imitation of the operation of a real-world process or system over time.The act of simulating something first requires that a model be developed; this model represents the key characteristics or behaviors/ functions  of the selected physical or abstract system or process. The model represents the system itself, whereas the simulation represents the operation of the system over time.Simulation is used in many contexts, such as simulation of  technology  for performance optimization,  safety engineering ,  testing ,  training ,  education , and  video games . Often,  computer experiments  are used to study simulation models. Simulation is also used with  scientific modelling  of natural systems or human systems to gain insight into their functioning.Simulation can be used to show the eventual real effects of alternative conditions and courses of action. Simulation is also used when the rea...
