Student Performance Monitoring for Fundamental of IS - Test 1

Performance

Irsyad and Mirza got below 20 for Test 1. 

Causes

Each of the student was contacted to know the problems. Only managed to get in touch with Mirza. He stated that he did not understand some of the materials

Intervention Plan

This is only Test 1. I need to watch Mirza closely and ask him frequently, if he is doing okay.

EA Lecturer Reflection #6 Jan 2020

Week: 7
Date: 17 / 2 / 2020
Topic: Values and Benefits

The lecture on values and benefits was purely based on an activity. The activity requires the student to read a paper that talks about benefits and challenges. The objective of this lecture for the students to be able to appreciate the benefits and also the challenges when implementing an EA.

A group will read a paper about, say, benefits, prepare a video and share that with a group that is doing challenges. Group that viewing challenges will write a summary of what they learned about the video lecture.

A problem is that the amount of time required is more that what I anticipated. In the future, I would ask the students to read the article first rather than let them read the article in class. That would give them ample time to complete the activity.

I also discussed on Test 1. I have completed grading Test 1 and gave back all their papers.

Next week's lecture is on EA Methodology that will be delivered fully online. The announcement on the video will be given this week.

EA Lecturer Reflection #5 Jan 2020

Week: 7
Date: 10 / 2 / 2020

Topik: Structure and Culture of Enterprise

The delivery of the lecture is through a series of videos which was assigned to the student the previous week. In class, I begin by asking the students if there are any questions on the structure and culture of enterprise. I recap a bit about the material particularly on the structure type and EA3 Cube Framework. Then I proceed with the activity on Structure and Culture of Enterprise which is called The Internship. The Intership can be accessed in OneDrive.

Test 1 was conducted this week as well.

Next week is about Values and Benefits of EA. I plan to have students to read papers and prepare a video about the paper.

FIS Lecturer Reflection #3 Jan 2020

Week 5 | 4 February 2020

There are so many things that I want to do in today's lecture. Many but it end up only half of the activities which is lecture on hardware and software which I used a mind map to demonstrate the topics in the Chapter. May be I do so much talking that I forget things that are on the agenda.

For the topic Hardware and Software the learning outcome is that for the student to be able to identify and describe the hardware and software that are suitable in an Information system architecture. I wanted to demonstrate this in class by showing a series of pictures and ask the students to identify which is hardware and software. I like to inject some practical sense into my lecture.

Week 6

This class is first year first semester. The curiosity is always there which I like it very much. So, Week 6 is Test  week. I will suggest the day and time if there is no response from the student. For lecture, I would do more practical on the hardware and software. I will introduce the IoT tes lesson as well. Project, don't forget that.

EA Lecturer Reflection #3 Jan 2020

Week 5 | Date: 3rd February

I finished the topic Overview of EA today. EA repository was explained briefly. The lecture begins with the announcement of Test 1 in Week 6. Test 1 will cover Overview of EA and the Structure and Culture of Enterprises.

I deliver lecture on the remaining elements of a EA activities as a system and analysis and design method i.e The Framework, Current Architecture and Future Architecture and also the Management Plan. I do hope that students actually read the slides and textbook and study because I could not see anything else other than this to enhance understanding.

I feel that I need extra questions to give to the students. I want to see who actually responded. At the moment, students will take an activity seriously if it is being graded.

Next Topic is Structure and Culture of Enterprise. This lecture is delivered fully online. On Ulearn, I have upload questions for the students to pay attention to before watching the video lecture. I really hope student do the activity. Please students. It is not for me. It is for you.

Week 6
Test 1 will be on Wednesday 12 / 2 / 2020
Lecture on Monday will be an activity on Structure and Culture of Enterprise*, presentation of Group as a Client, presentation of Values and Risks. *WOW*
