My Hometown Culinary Trip part 3
Ready for tonight's topic? Sit back and relax. Because I would like to tell you one of my favorite snacks in Pontianak, chai kue.
Chai kue (in my mother tongue, it is called "choi pan") is Chinese snack which its skin is made from a mixture of rice flour and tapioca. Its contents are various, there are yam, beans, chives (kuchai) and taro. Chai kue can be cooked by steaming or frying. Steamed chai kue usually has semicircular shape and fried chai kue has circle shape. It usually served with fried garlic and eaten with soy chilly sauce.
Nah, at this time, I am going to talk about Chaikue Siam A-Hin. Please watch my video with my friend at this food stall first.

Structural Assignment : Teaching Learning with ICT
1. Why
do you think we need ICT in teaching learning process?
Because
learning takes place everywhere, not just in the classroom. Today, we are in
21st Century, ICT can empower teachers and students, promote change of the
teaching learning process to be better and foster the development of 21st
Century skill. By ICT, we can connected to the world (locally and globally). We
can learn from teachers around world. We can share our ideas and ask our
question without gap. The information and knowledge are unlimited if we applied
ICT in teaching learning process.
2. In
what ways ICT can really help both teacher and students?
ICT
can helps teacher enjoy the teaching-learning in class and the students enjoy their
learning and doing their homework. In ICT, there are some options to learn,
such as blogging, broadcasting, Google document presentation and social
networking.
By
blogging, students can have learning experiences. The students can share ideas,
videos and their own website. They learn to be creative and productive by design
their blog and share their words with the world. Then the students can get
comments and feedback about their materials. The teacher can give his or her
suggestion and advice for their blogs. It really helps the students to get the
confidence from the feedback of their friends, teachers or people around the
world.
By
broadcasting, students can record their own video about any subject and the
teacher can listens the broadcast from the students and then give them a
feedback. The students can also listen to the other broadcast and learn from
it.
By
Google document presentation, the teacher can presents a slide show that have
been talked in the class. The students can develop the presentation to be more
interesting by text, graphic and pictures to present the project. Google
documentary also offers the capability of sharing their works with anyone,
anywhere in the world.
By
social networking (for example Twitter), the students can connect to their
teacher and the others by following the tweets. The teacher can gives a
discussion topic in a tweet and the students can share their opinions by reply
their teacher’s tweet. It helps them to share their ideas and get the point
from the “chat”.
Both
teacher and students can learn about critical thinking, generalist (broad)
competencies, ICT competencies enabling expert work, decision-making, working
as a member of a team, when students have a group project and do it with their
friends as a group, and the teacher can be a part of that team, and also learn
about communicating effectively.
3. Which
do you prefer to ask, what computer can do for us, or what we can do with
computer? Mention the reason.
What
we can do with computer. Because computer is a general-purpose tool with many
uses, so the primary limits on what it does are set by the choices of its user,
us. We, humans, can explore the computer’s function and innovate the program on
computer, improve our creativity on computer.

Giving and Responding to Bad News
When you have bad news, there are ways
to do it correctly, and ways to make a mess of it. It is always not easy to deliver bad news.
But at least you know the appropriate words when you have to do it.
First, before you deliver the bad news,
you can say: “Hey, I’m afraid…” Example:
“Hey, I’m afraid your cat’s died.”
Or you can also say in a longer
sentence: “Hey, I’m afraid I’ve got some bad news for you.” Example: “Hey, I’m
afraid I’ve got some bad news for you. Your cat’s died.”
Or you can exchange the words: “Hey,
I’ve got some bad news for you, I’m afraid your cat's died.”
Alternatively, you can say:
“Unfortunately, I’m afraid…” So, the sentence is: “Unfortunately, I’m afraid
your cat’s died.”
Don’t forget, at the end you have to say
something positive. Example: “it’s better for your cat. He was terribly sick,
right?”
Now, what if someone gives you some bad
news? How do you respond?
For example: “Hey, I’m so sad. My cat's
died."
For expressing shock, you can say: “Oh
my God! That’s awful/terrible!”
Or, you can imagine how your friend
feels: “You must be feeling absolutely terrible/awful.”
If you have heard the news from someone,
you can say: “I’ve heard about it. I’m so sorry to hear that.”
Last, show your support by saying:
“Anytime you want to talk, just call me.”
Otherwise, you can also say: “If you
ever need to talk to someone, you know where I am.”
You can also offer help: “If there’s
anything I can do, just let me know.”
That is all about giving and responding
to bad news, hope you can remember the ways to give and respond the bad news.
