Summary
This lesson is about inserting a clips art and picture to PowerPoint Program.
Lesson reflection
The lesson was about the way of inserting clip are and a picture in PowerPoint. Since the
students have to add things to the empty slide, I gave them an online game. The reason
behind that is I wanted to connect the way of the correct things together. In other words, I
wanted to connect the correct place of things with the correct way of inserting clip art and
pictures in PowerPoint.
The lesson atmosphere was relaxed, because of the game at the beginning and their
behavior towards learning. It is important to have relaxing environment to help students
learn (Kyriacou, 2007). The lesson in general was very good. However, the timing was
incorrect. Since the students in grade three and they get lost every now and then, even
with telling the directions more than three times, they get lost easily. In addition, some
computers didnt have internet in, so each student that dont have internet will call the
teacher and will lose the time. For that, it was a mistake that shouldnt happen, but with
experience I will be better next time. Moreover, students were really engaged in the
lesson, and they tried their best, because each student who finishes the activity will get a
star. Using the reward and punishment system is very useful (McFarland & McDaniels,
(n,d). When the student knows that there is a reward for behaving in a good way, or to
finish the activity first in a correct way they do their best. On the other hand, when they
know if they act in a certain way that the teacher doesnt like, they will avoid doing it,
because they dont want to be punished.
In addition, I used the repeating methodology for learning the target language, because
with repeating they will memorize the word, and they will connect it to the picture in
front of them. Because they were engaged in the class most of the students hit the target
language, even most of the weak students did.
When it was the time to get the student to learn the way of inserting a clip art and picture
in PowerPoint, it was the time for repeating and organizing their ideas about the way to

do it (Roberts, 1998). After theyve done the task, it was the time for giving feedback
(Race & Page, 2014). Giving feedback is a very essential thing to do in the class, because
it shows the student the way to complete things. In other words, of the student was right
he will go to the next step, if not he would do the thing again in the correct way with the
help of the teacher.
