COMMENT ON THE SUITABILITY AND USEFULNESS OF DATA LOGGING, SIMULATION AND MODELING IN ADRESSING THE STUDENT'S PROBLEM IN LEARNING.

THE SUITABILITY AND USEFULNESS OF DATA LOGGING, SIMULATION AND MODELLING IN ADRESSING STUDENT’S PROBLEM IN LEARNING.

DATA LOGGING :

v Help students to conduct the experiments by using data logger device so that the students clear about the significant of data logger in order to get more accurate result and help the experiment data collection.

v Since the data logging process involve engage, empower and enhance stages, they provide the students ideas when they exposed to engage questions and widen the student’s knowledge when student move to empower stage and enhance stage. At enhance stage, students can improve their critical thinking when answering the tough questions and apply the concept that have learnt to answer that question.

v So students involve actively in class if teacher introduce them with data logging learning programme.

SIMULATION :

v The lesson be more interactive since students are expose to the movable picture or software that help them understand more the topics that have studied.

v Students clear about the certain process in the body that cannot be seen if the process is present in simulation. So, the learning process more interesting and knowledgeable.

v Simulation help the teacher to give the review about the topics and give more easy to teacher to gives the summary regarding the topics.

MODELING :

v Involve the students in handling the modeling can increase the student’s interest about the topics.

v Moreover, the students can see the process involve regarding the topics clearly.

PROBLEM IN INTERGRATING THE USE OF DATA LOGGING, SIMULATION AND MODELING.

v The problem is when teachers can use this programme properly.

v The teachers do not know how to use this programme and foe them this programme is hard to practice.

v The difficulties of teachers in handling this device affect the student’s interest to learn the topics.

SUGGESSTION TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM.

v Teacher must competent in handling all tools to improve the learning process so that the students can get benefits from that.

v Ministry of Education must give the intensive exercises to teachers in how to use technology so that they can apply it in learning process.

v Students also must be expose to how to use technology in searching the information and they must know the significant of ICT in education.
