From today's lesson, i've had a better understanding of the different tools available in assessing LE. I also understand the need to assess the learning environment, to address any gaps, so as to maximise pupils' learning. This will allow me to better understand the readings which i've previously failed to grasp. I think it'll definitely help when i go back and re-read the articles again.
Before this lesson, i didnt know who Fraser is. His name has appeared so many times in the articles that i've read. I also didn't know who Murray was. We've studied about Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs, but didn't know that it was actually developed from Murray's work. So today's lesson provided had a good introduction on the different reseachers who had contributed significantly in the research of LE. (Like Lewin (1936), Murray (1938) to Walbery, Moos and Fraser and Fisher. )
We were introduced a number of quantitative tools in the assessment of LE. I'm especially interested in WIHIC. It seems to be an easy tool for "beginners" to adminster. For a start, i think i will work on the LE of a mathematics class. Since my school is on the moodle e-learning platform, i would try to work with my colleagues to come up with something online, that'll benefit the whole department. I'm definitely looking forward to the lesson on SPSS, as it'll also help in my AR project.
