 * Watsatree gave a good **presentation on chapter 10. She could summarize this chapter into 3 pages which is very helpful for me when trying to remember the whole chapter. At the beginning, I only understood the concept and definition of “Procedure” but I was still struggling with applying this idea to the real world experiences. I probably read through this chapter only once but when I listened to Watsatree’s presentation and read what she summarized, it enhanced my comprehension on this chapter better. Watsatree also produced and highlighted a useful outline of the chapter that helped me think about the chapter elements and the important pieces of information. Now I am realizing that I am probably more procedure-oriented person since every time I work on something or assignment, I would rather come out with the steps for the procedure in order to accomplish that goal or assignment.

Miriam also demonstrated her careful reading and deep understanding of all the topics discussed in the chapter 11. Her presentation made me fully understand not only what chapter 11 covered but also nice to hear what she came up with several ideas/samples on how to incorporate what on the text to what she teaches in the real life. Listening to those examples really improved my understanding of this chapter a lot. In the past, the principle definition to me was about fundamental or basic rules that help to determine the rightfulness or wrongfulness of actions. I agree what Watsatree discussed on what happened in Thai Education. Gramma has been taught in principle. Most Thai instructors overlooked to explain why and how to apply those principles on students’ real life experiences. Now, I am inspired not only to consider it as an important element of the learning process but also to explain why and how to apply those principles to real practice or activity in order to make learning more effective.

I like when we have class discussion since I can see several point of views from other classmates. It appears to me that I can learn more from their experiences as well.

My opinion on the case study, how to write object effectively, TAs should recognize the principles of writing effective objective, what should be included, as well as have the problem-solving skills when students might have any questions regarding the course objective. TAs are able to explain that to students as a simple way to understand. Therefore, not only principles but also procedure might be good to apply to this case study as well.
