- 4. • PhD – the highest academic qualification •Ability to write and publish to a. demonstrate the competency to do research rigourously and independently b. demonstrate the ability to do a critical review in topic of interest which requires deep knowledge of what is known, what need to be studied etc… (review other peoples work) c. contribute to the body of knowledge (so future study can be built based on your work)
- 5. • Master / PhD - no syllabus - set own interest • New journey - new skills • Std researcher - novice & alone ! • R & M - previous knowledge + interest • Thesis - thick manuscript & materials • Extra personal skills – writing skill More info: http://drotspss.blogspot.com/2013/04/tajuk-468-ketahui-apa-itu-best-phd.html http://drotspss.blogspot.com/2013/05/tajuk-484-best-phd-thesis-tidak-wujud.html http://drotspss.blogspot.com/2013/04/tajukv-469-originality-of-thesis.html http://drotspss.blogspot.com/2012/03/tajuk-330-research-unwritten-rule-1-do.html
- 6. My thought….. Your ultimate goal is to FINISH writing your thesis OT (on time) not to CHANGE the world !! “CHANGE” the world after getting your PhD not during your candidacy…. The longer time you take does not reflect the quality of your thesis…. It is DIFFICULT to write a thesis.. so why don’t you do it the SMART way … the KOTC way? 6

However, the latest findings of the SPM Performance Report 2010 (MOE, 2011) regarding the chemistry performance in the SPM examination is incongruent with this aim. It was found that the “majority of candidates did not understand the concepts of chemistry” (MOE, 2010, p.14). The report concluded that the candidates failed to acquire basic understandings of chemistry concepts (MOE, 2012) 27
- 28. Continue……. From the perspective of teaching chemistry, research by Daud (2010) revealed that a majority of chemistry teachers in Malaysia use the direct transmission approach to explain chemistry concepts, whilst students passively listen and take notes. These views are consistent with those of Hutchinson (2010) when he claimed that in general, chemistry is taught to students mostly based on the passive traditional approach. 28

Research has shown that experts and novices show marked differences in several aspects of problem solving ability such as problem representations (Bodner, 2000; Greenbowe, 1983; Heyworth, 1999)…. Taken from: Cartrette, D. P. (2009). Non-mathematical problem solving. JRST, 47(6), 643–660. Citation? According to Cartrette (2009), problem representation is one of the criteria that differenciate experts from novices OR Problem representation is one of the criteria that differenciate experts from novices (Cartrette, 2009).

- 34. 3D and 2D animations for enhancing students’ understanding of science concepts 2D animation has increasingly played an important role in science instruction. However, there is not enough empirical support that 2D animation has more positive effects compared to conventional instruction (Russell, 2010). For example, the use of 2D animation is not suitable for weak students due to their difficulties to analyze information from the 2D animation because the lack of their previous knowledge, concepts (Don, 2010; Sweller, 2009). www.drotspss.blogspot.com 34

- 37. 3D and 2D animations for enhancing students’ understanding of science concepts However, recent advancement in computer graphics software has made 3D animation feasible for science instruction to replace 2D animation. As stressed by Mayer (2010, p. 122), 3D animation offers students the opportunity to “visualize, interact, explore” with any concepts within a computer generated environment. For that reason, 3D animation is seen as a potential educational tool for enhancing students understanding of science concepts in science instruction. www.drotspss.blogspot.com 37
