Reflection :• The lesson was a success. The students

enjoyed the whole lesson and they prefer this method of learning compared to others especially : video show

• More time need to be allocated in group activities for them to discuss and present. Due to the time constraint, not all group have the chance to present.

• The medium of using email to submit the assignment was also a success although there was some technical problem occurred due to the ‘World Wide Wait’. Thus, all students were not able to submit the assignment on time. Yet they managed to submit it before midnight.

• Students have problem to access to the link given that serves as the reference for their major assignment.

• Students are cooperative and actively involve in the group discussion.

• Interactive method of teaching is more suitable and this approach can be adopted in the future.

• After having a lot of fun during the lesson, students are a bit reluctant to do the homework and after knowing the fact that there was a major assignment need to be submitted in 2weeks time.

• This lesson has succeeded in cultivating and encouraging the mind of the students to criticize and give opinion on the subject matter.
