<span lang="EN-US" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;"><span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif;">In our Educational Psychology class, our great instructor, Dr.Lihanna stress to us that teaching does not necessarily means concentrating on the words only. It can be fun and interactive as long as the teacher knows how to engage the students in activities to make the class more interesting. Other than using the whiteboard, mahjong papers, LCD projector, slides or doing role-plays, videos is another means of making a teacher’s teaching style interesting. As mentioned in the previous post, Pendidikan Islam was the subject assigned for our group. This time, we are sharing the Top 10 YouTube videos (not rated from 1-10) that are related and can be useful for our subject. Below each link provided will be a short summary of the chosen video and why it made in our Top 10 list. Enjoy watching the videos and hopefully they give inspiration for better lesson plans and classes!</span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-US" style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; mso-ansi-language: EN-US;">As students, we will have exams and quizzes. We would have to do revisions so that what have been taught and learned can be applied in everyday lives. shaitan is known to be our number one enemy, forever! They will try influence us not to do good things that will lead us to Jannah. They will confuse us by constantly trying to keep us live off track from the straight path. This video shows how shaitan tries to influence a brother who was revising for his final examination paper by giving excuses for him not to pray immediately after the adzhan. The brother however was strong enough to guard off from shaitan’s plead. He was determined to break for a while and perform his prayer first before continue with his revision. This video is instrumental in teaching 'Aqidah and 'Iman where we understand our relationship with Allah and how it is applied in our daily life. It shows how shaitan can influence us anytime and anywhere we want to do good things. We can be strong and constant by seeking refuge in Allah (saying "A'uzubillah") and reciting Quranic verses to guard us off from his whispers. </span><br />

The video is a good way to learn the du'a while giving an example of its usage. It is basically about a student’s situation, which he having an examination and facing difficulty to answer questions but by the help from Allah he could answered the questions and passed the examination. From this video, the importance of du’a is stressed out. As a student and also a Muslim, we are encouraged to make du’a for seek help and barakah in world and hereafter. Making du’a from Allah must accompany from a humble, honest and sincere heart to gain guidance (hidayah) from Allah.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><span class="hps">The importance of</span> <span class="hps">du’a</span> <span class="hps">is</span> <span class="hps">emphasized in</span> <span class="hps">the Qur'an</span> <span class="hps">and there are many</span> <span class="hps">verses</span> <span class="hps">of the Quran</span> <span class="hps">calls for</span> <span class="hps">Muslims</span> <span class="hps">to make du’a.

We recite the same surah for each rakaah, tasbih and doa after prayer. This video gives us a realization in which we shall correct our intention in doing wudhu’ and other activities. What is it that actually stops us from being dynamic in our prayer? Instead of giving excuses, why not we learn more surah and use it in our prayers. It would not be much of a burden if we try memorizing few verses a week. We should also study how the Prophet (pbuh) performs his prayers and try following his practices. It is different from what we were taught in our childhood years. It is time to think, stimulate our mind in our heart, and keep khusyu’ in every prayer we perform. Remember no to be lazy and get out of the routine! </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif;">Islam was going through its Golden Ages when the rest of the world was in the Dark Ages. However, this fact has been isolated, downplayed and even removed from history. The topic in the Malaysian syllabus also does injustice to the era. This video made it to the top 10 because it successfully enlivened dry, boring history lesson (even though Islamic). The approach of using story as well as the sprinkle of magic-like effects would engage any bored,sleepy student on a lazy. Even so, the video still sent across the powerful message of the misconception about the rule of Muslims in history and its relevance to modern times.</span><br />

The technique used in making the video is unique with the effects, pictures, sounds and the narration that keeps one’s adrenaline pumping. The video may be instrumental in a lesson on Qada' and Qadar.</span><br />

As Allah says in the Quran;"Verily in the messenger of Allah you have a good example for him who looks unto Allah and the Last Day, and remembers Allah much." This is why Islam emphasizes such great importance to really discover the life of Prophet Muhammad in order to understand his characteristics as an exemplary life style for his followers. When we understand deeply about prophet’s life, only then we can implement it in a correct way particularly in the contemporary world which has lots of obstacles and challenges in practicing Islam.</span><b><span lang="EN-GB" style="color: #4d768f; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri;"> </span></b><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-font-weight: bold;">Another important aspect of a Muslim's life is to have high moral standards.

The message of this video is clearly mentioned because it using simple and precise sentences which easy to understand. The use of cartoon as the main character is quite interesting and funny. This will make the students to stay still watching the video and avoid them from being bored. The most important thing about this video, it is Islamic based. Furthermore, there are <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Qur’anic</i> verse and <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Hadiths </i>included in this video which I believe it is good not only for the students, but for us also. </span></span></div>

<div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">
An interactive and animated timeline of the Seerah! You’re gonna love this. The timeline’s divided generally into three eras and specifically into individual years which when clicked tell the important events in that year. One can either read or listen because they have audiobook quality narration (apparently BBC studio!). But wait, this is not just a simple summary of the Prophet’s life, instead, the developer (Muslim Research & Development Foundation)<i>“liberally seeks to draw out the deeper meanings, lessons and wisdoms of these events, which are applicable to the people of the 21st century as they were 1400 years ago.”</i> and focuses on revealing the true personality of the Last Messenger of Allah.
Thus, the timeline has added features like <i>Lessons & Wisdoms</i> that delve into deeper meanings and derive lessons and guidance from the sirah, <i>Edicts & Rulings</i>, that explain the background of verses and injunctions of the Quran revealed during that year and the <i>Contentious Narratives</i> that tackle various narrative that misrepresent the Prophet so that misunderstandings about the Prophet S.A.W. may be addressed.</div>

<div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">
In fact, the website gives a lot more than just the timeline, there’s the Prophet’s Last Sermon, a description about him, the beginnings of a collection of attractive videos aaaand watchout for the upcoming features and project by these brilliant servants of Allah.</div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">
I believe that the website is not just good in its layout and design but also that it is for a more mature audience as compared to outer interactive websites. Secondary school kids would love the ‘coolness’ dripping off it, with the special features of the timeline posing a challenge to their intellect. The website in its totality can be used in classes in such a way that almost all levels of Bloom’s taxonomy may be covered. I use the word ‘use’ because the implementation of the taxonomy would be on the instructor’s discretion since, yes, questions are posed and higher level thought if provoked. But, it would require a discussion and all the old arguments of time-limitations, control etc :D. </div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">
A crucial fact is that the developers understand the sirah and the issues of authenticity surrounding it. Hence, they have related some of their sources and selection method for any crosschecking the reader may want to do. </div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">
My first thought when I saw the website was ‘COOOOL!’ and my second ‘Oh but they’ve got a lot of reading material (which is however, suitable for teenagers and above) and audio only’. But as I went through the website I found that they were smack on track with their plan to set up the SirahMap, where the users will “Experience for the first time in history, the result of an extraordinary collaboration of satellite technology, the Saudi Geological survey and the work of on-the-ground researchers.” Now that’s ‘Cool’ to the power of n! Indeed, when this is up, users/ students can learn ‘hands-on’…virtually at least:P… aaand it would be suitable for younger age groups aaand would cater for the different learning styles and different intelligence e.g. spatial and kinesthetic. Hmm, also to note, the audio also caters for those with disability of vision ^^. </div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">
On the other hand, some of the topics discussed under contentious narratives may be beyond the intellectual capacity of even high school goers. I believe that as an intermediary step to the SirahMap, the developers could put in maps and pictures and a full list of the references used would encourage and help in self learning. </div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">
Summarily, this website is an example of <i>ta’dib</i> as Al-Attas defined it because it makes a brilliant attempt to go beyond the story of the life of the Prophet S.A.W. to understanding the right place of events, people (especially the Prophet S.A.W.) and Quranic verses in relation to Allah, hopefully to spark the self-recognition and see its realization in acknowledgement. More of such websites, in different languages, are in dire need. </div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">
<br /></div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">
May Allah bless the efforts of MDRF and ease them on their ongoing projects and plans! </div>
<div style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif;">
Hope I've enticed you into exploring the website ^^...Rabbana zidna 'ilman nafian! </div>

and don’t have enough time to go out and play with you children? Yes? Oh, don’t
worry, now you can play with your them without going anywhere. What you
need is just having your desktop, laptop, ipad or tablet in front of you so
that you can go online. Why you need to go online? Which website you should
explore? Are they questions that you wondering about? Want to know the answers,
here is a suggestion; <a href="http://www.islamicplayground.com/Scripts/prodList.asp?idCategory=22">http://www.islamicplayground.com/Scripts/prodList.asp?idCategory=22</a>

an essential part of a children’s live. Without education, it seems like they
can fall easily, as when you are standing on one foot. It’s difficult right? The
importance of being well-taught since they were small can be seen when you
proudly say, “My daughter is a doctor” or “My son is a pilot”. Isn’t what you
want to see in your children’s future as parents. But, there are things you should
be aware of, which do not pressure and push your children too hard in order to
get an excellent grade. As adults, we need time to rest and release our stress
by doing many things such as jogging, shopping, and many more. Same goes to
children, they need time to rest and play in order to avoid them from being stressful.
Learning and playing are two different things, but both have their own
influence in children while they are growing. But still, as parents you need to
guide what types of activities and games that are suitable for them.<o:p></o:p></span></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-latin;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #102614;"><br /></span></span></span></div>

should explore the website given above. You will find it is interesting for you
and your children. It is very useful for your children too. It is full with interesting
activities and games that your children can play with. Furthermore, this
website is Islamic based. There are Arabic alphabets games and puzzles, Islamic
crossword, Islamic puzzles, and Islamic quiz which can generate and brainstorm their
basic knowledge about Islamic Education. Indirectly, it can help them to
increase and sharpen their knowledge about Islamic Education. It is also a good
foundation for them to be good Muslims at a very early age. If you want your
children become good Muslims, you should prepare a good foundation for them. How?
Just by providing and teaching them with Islamic Knowledge as early as
possible. In addition, this website can be a bonus for you in teaching them
about Islamic Knowledge. </span></span></div>

spend some quality time with your children by helping and guiding them while
they are solving the games and puzzles. Believe me, by having those quality
times, your children will feel that they are being appreciated, concerned, and
loved. As children, the only thing that they look forward from you is your attention.
Another thing you should know, you should aware about their presence in your
life. So that, they know their presence is important as yours in their live.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

happened has its start. If you want to have good children, it starts with you. As

In this section also, the segment Susu Ibu (Breastfeeding) is also included.Breastfeeding, to me is very important because breast feeding is the first food for the children. through out this segment, there are several article that stress the importance of breastfeeding as nowadays some of mother have neglect it.

Focusing on the Islamic Education for children, the learning activity site should be attractive yet ‘ilmiah in order to assist our children in developing their cognitive and this is one of the learning sites which might help the spiritual aspect of children’s to be fed.<br /> <br />This is a link of the website, <a href="http://islam4parents.com/2009/05/teenagers-should-start-drinking-green-tea/#more-818"><span style="color: blue;">http://islam4parents.com/2009/05/teenagers-should-start-drinking-green-tea/#more-818</span></a><span style="color: blue;"> </span><br />The first impression of this website can be said as it is very concise and comprehensive blog. Although the main focus is to highlight the practical tips for raising children and useful resources for parenting needs, it somehow covers all aspects of human life. It offers advantages not only for parents yet teenagers and school kids would have much more benefits gained from this learning site.<br /><br />Having said that it is a comprehensive learning site because we can see various sharing out can be seen for instance article, worksheets, printable du’a, children’s TV, e-books, recipes, online games. Considering that children are living with high technologies, take for example the worksheets will teach some fundamental of Islam to children in a different and interesting way. We just can simply download these free pdf sheets and print them for your children to complete. Isn’t it amazing?<br /><br />After exploring this site, one of the major things came to my mind was,”I want to be a great Muslim parent for my children”. This learning site is very useful in encouraging parents towards raising up children in a very beautiful way of Muslim’s life. It offers printable du’a which made it very easy to implement the Islamic environment at home by having the printouts available. For me, if parent can have it printed on colourful papers with cute frames on the wall, it would be much more fun in memorizing them together with kids and later apply those du’a when it is needed.</span><br />
<div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />Speaking about children’s TV, it offers such varieties including stories of the prophet, nasyid, cartoon, songs and teaching solat for kids. It could be the learning aids for parents or preschool teachers in helping the kids having fun while gaining knowledge because the videos are so interactive and friendly user. Plus, the animations used are so colourful and very eye catching designed. Even an adult like me would have just loved it, what’s more for little kids out there. <br /><br />There’s no payment needed, what you need is merely effort in exploring what this site has offered. Personally, this website is absolutely great and every Muslim family should use it. This website may improve the children’s learning activities in a fun way. May Allah reward those who are involved in creating this wonderful learning site. <br /><br />R.Syakireen Syahida R.Ismail.</span></div>Ulul Albabhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01693690603295447040noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2239288887406508223.post-5444352871239129202012-03-27T23:10:00.000-07:002012-03-28T07:52:00.318-07:00<span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif;"><br /><span style="font-size: large;"></span></span><br />

users may download the apps and play it anytime. There are several other games
that these kids are attracted to on iPhone, why not we play Islamic games that
can also enhance our knowledge? </span><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: Wingdings; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">J</span><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">
There are lessons such as my first Iqra’, Arabic, Wudhu’, Solat and many
others. The instructions are quite clear and understandable for kids to digest.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">There
are payments for those who wish to subscribe the learning series. It may cost
approximately RM 30 to RM 50 only, depending on the duration you subscribe it. Personally,
it does not seem too expensive as the charge is acceptable with the various
activities provided. However, it may be a burden for some parents as they may
face some financial difficulties. Having an internet access is considered good
enough, but to pay extra may seem a bit hard. The activities presented looks so
interesting, yet are limited and need to be purchased to have a further view. This may dishearten kids whose parents can’t
afford to pay. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-family: "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">Anyway,
let’s not focus too much on that part as there are more good things that can be
gained rather than the not so good things from this website. Anything that may
enhance our iman is good. I was attracted to the page from the very first time
I encounter it. I could not wait to explore the content and also introduce it
to my Uncle and Aunties. They surely need to have this for their children. May Allah
grant those who created the website and have shared this creative and fun
approach of learning with other fellow Muslims. I hope that other readers will
have a view of the fun page and enjoy it like how I did! <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman", "serif"; font-size: large; line-height: 115%;">Based on the article reviewed, the author predicted that group of students of similar ability levels having different styles of engagement with learning would display significant differences in the level of achievement. In conducting this research, six styles of engagement were identified; detached, committed, hopeful, engaged, disengaged, and keen-to-do-well. There is a relationship between the achievement of the students and the six styles used by them. However, not all six styles may contribute to a higher achievement. This is referring to the detached and disengaged style. The findings indicated that the students who are more committed to the style of engagement would gain higher school achievement scores.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><span lang="EN-MY" style="font-family: "Times New Roman";">A descriptive study by </span><span lang="EN-MY" style="font-family: "Times New Roman";">Roach and Lemasters (2006), examined about the relevance of an online Master’s program in educational administration and leadership. This study was to investigate the level of satisfaction with online learning and the comparison between using online and narrative pedagogy on level of satisfaction among students. The participants of this study were the students of the online Master’s in Educational Administration program. The data obtained through the final evaluations of the course was then analyzed in which a Likert scale for rating statements related to the content and delivery of the course, also a survey included a number of question and provided the respondent an opportunity to make and additional comments. The result indicated a greater degree of satisfaction, proving that students in the program were satisfied with the delivery of the online courses. However, there are still issues concerning students’ need for direct consultation to be considered which may affect the effectiveness of the learning progress.</span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Times, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: large;">The study was conducted to examine the effect of being multitasking while completing school work. In order to complete the study, eighty nine college students were selected consisted of 43 females and 46 males. All the students were randomly categorized into three situations which are, receiving instant messaging before reading, receiving instant messaging during reading, or not receiving any instant messaging. Subjects were told that they would either receive instant messaging before reading, while reading, or not at all. The researchers created a fake situation where a passage from a psychology textbook was displayed on five consecutive screens. For the experimental group, an instant messaging appeared on each of the five screens warned by an alert sound. The students were given a multiple choice test with 25 questions after reading the passage and also were asked to complete a demographic questionnaire to measure their typical instant messaging behaviour. Based on the result finding, there were no differences in theirs’ performance between the three groups. The only difference was the time taken for the students who instant messaged during reading was longer than the other two groups. Thus, this study conclude that students who instant messaging during reading also perform well, yet take longer time to finish the task given.</span></div>
