Day 1 (task 1, task2 and task3)

1.2 Iam expectation of RBO:

This module consists of mobile learning and web based.

I expect mobile learning and web based:

Ensures all students have equal access
Interaction and collaboration
Creation of a learning community
Access to a variety of online resources
Increasing skills to student and how to create blog.

1.3 Web-based and mobile learning is:

§ Web sites (Google, yahoo, gmail…)

§ Tools (computer, camera, mobile…)

Mobile learning is portable device we used it to gathering information on the web, getting email, watching lectures, getting directions.

Web based is all sites in the internet we used it to learning, gathering information and putting information in it.

1.4 I am going to give this information for you by sent it in your email or publish information in blog.

2.1 Learning is:

Learning is the discovery of new facts and relating them to previous knowledge.
Learning changing behavior in learner.
Learning means to interact with the lesson.
Learning as a process focuses on what happens when the learning takes place.

I think learning is Improvement in performance reflected in the form of behavior observed that happen as a result of experience or practice under its own learner.

2.2 Learning theory

Learning theory is attempts to describe how people and animals learn; thereby helping us understand the inherently complex process of learning.

Behaviorism

In this theory learning happens as result responding to environmental stimuli. Behaviorism is based on positive and negative reinforcement.

Constructivism
This theoretical based on construction of knowledge rather than acquiring it and that through previous experience
http://www.learning-theories.com/constructivism.htm

Cognitivism
Based on Mental processes such as thinking, memory, knowing, and problem-solving need to be explored. Changes in behavior are observed, but only as an indication of what is occurring in the learner’s head.

Objectivism
this theory based on achievement, people can depend on his offer without out any receives or gives.
Objectivism (Ayn Rand) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

2.3BLOOM S TAXONOMY

Benjamin Bloom (1956) identified three domains of educational activities:

Cognitive: mental skills (Knowledge)

This domain concerns to how individuals think; their intellectual capabilities, level of development and preferred thinking styles.

Affective: growth in feelings or emotional areas (Attitude)

I think this domain relates to how individuals feel emotionally and physically while learning.

· Psychomotor: manual or physical skills (Skills)

I think this domain Relates to the five senses and physical being of learners.

Cognitive domain:

The cognitive domain (Bloom, 1956) involves knowledge and the development of intellectual skills.it consists of six categories are:

Knowledge.
Comprehension
Application
Analysis.
Synthesis.
Evaluation.

Affective domain:

The affective domain (Krathwohl, Bloom, Masia, 1973) includes the manner, in which we deal with things emotionally. It contains of five categories are:

Receiving phenomena.
Responding to phenomena.
Valuing.
Organization.
Internalizing values.

Psychomotor domain:

The psychomotor domain (Simpson, 1972) includes physical movement, coordination, and use of the motor-skill areas. It contains seven categories are:

Perception
Set
Guided
Mechanism
Complex over response
Adaptation
Origination

Bloom's Revised Taxonomy

Lorin Anderson, a former student of Bloom, revisited the cognitive domain in the learning taxonomy in the mid-nineties and made some changes, with perhaps the two most prominent ones being, 1) changing the names in the six categories from noun to verb forms, and 2) slightly rearranging them.

This new taxonomy reflects a more active form of thinking and is perhaps more accurate.

Original domain	New domain
Evaluation	Creating
Synthesis	Evaluating
Analysis	Analyzing
Application	Applying
Comprehension	Understanding
Knowledge	Remembering

Task 3:

3.1 What materials you use?

I started the lesson of mathematic (arithmetic progression in power point) by using computer and I used the projector to present information and I used speaker to hear the sound in this lesson.

3.2 What are the teaching activities?

I putted the objectives of my lesson before I start, the students must be able to:

· The student will be introduced to various methods of solving arithmetic progression.

· Find the sum to n term.

· Choose the best method for solving arithmetic progression.

I asked the students about the arithmetic progression, which related to previous knowledge and I asked them to solve some exercises to apply the rules of arithmetic progression, I gave them real examples to fix new information. Also I gave them many examples about how to apply this rule and I followed them while they are working in the lesson to help them.

3.3 What are the learning activities?

I used learning styles are:

Visual

Auditor

Tactile/kinesthetic.

3.4 How do you assess?

After that I assess the levels of student by gave to them test to know the feedback of this lesson. Therefore know what the students know and what they want to learn and what they learn?
