My Teaching Philosophy
I believe learning engineering subjects must be a fun journey for students. Learning for the students is to appreciate and to grasp a fundamental concept, and to bring that concept to solve a complex problem later in their life.
I believe the whole thing about teaching must be about designing learning for the students, not too much about lecturing in front of the class. This is where the technology comes as the backbone, where the fundamental concepts can be represented by digital interactive contents. The learning is carefully scaffolded in the learning platform where the students can learn the contents outside the class (flipped learning), and inside the classroom the activities are focused on students collaborating in solving problem to boost their critical thinking, discussion and reflection (collaborative learning).
Teaching for me is therefore:
- to build relationship with students-contents, students-students, me-students.
- to groom the 4C skills (collaboration, critical thinking, communication and creativity) of the students.
- to inculcate the culture of long-life learning.
Me - Student
Student - Student
