Assignment F m Essays - Articles, Education, Educational Psychology Name: Mitesh Kumar Solanki Module: PMILSC Assignment F "TED ED the way to improve the language skills" Description TED EDis a combined presentation video on current topics and events. The full form of TED is technology, entertainment and design. It was first launched in the year 1984 by Richard Saul Wurmans and Harry Marks ( Elk 2014). Today most of the UK universities added ted talk activities in their courses so students could expand their knowledge and also develop their language skills ( Writer, 2014). I am a student of pre master at UNIC. We have four modules in our whole pre master course among the four modules the most important module is ILSC and the whole module is based on developing the listening and writing skills in English language. Academic listening is one of the assignments on this module which was assignment and TED ED was used as independent online listening practice. In the assignment E the lecturer played a ted talk video and the presenter of the video was Dr.Zieng after watching the video we had to write summary and critical evaluation of it. I never had an online lear ning experience in my past studies. Therefor to achieve high grades we performed TED ED activities at home which was available on the module, the only thing we had to do was that we had to access the module and then we had do the TED ED activity. It was so easy i never thought that online learning is this much easier than theoretical learning and i experienced that TED ED activities are effective way to develop our English language skills such as listening skills ,writing skills and motivates us to think critically. Critical Evaluation and Analysis The language use in ted talk is English language. Therefore it's a major benefit for the students to develop their English language skills. In my past life I never heard about the ted talk. We had lot of TED ED activities in the ILSC modules for that I want to give thanks to her because if she didn't includes the TED ED activities in our module then I could never understand the importance of English language skills in my life. TED ED activities were an online activity which was categorised into two stages so students can easily understand that what they have to do. The first stage was held in the classroom in which we received a short brief about what is TED ED and what are the benefits of it and also how to do TED ED activity in effective manner to which will help in developing our writing and listening skills. The second stage was TED ED homework which was uploaded on the module. Module is a website of the unic where students can login with their id and can get information about their module and also can do and submit their home activities and assignments on it. Therefore in the second stage we had to access on the module and then we had to watch and listen carefully the ted talk video which was uploaded by the lecturer and after that we had to write critical evaluation of the video and also we had to read and comments on others critical evaluation. Ted ed activity was an good experience for me because it was an online activity which was benefit for me to do complete the activity at any time and also this activity developed my knowledge towards online learning. The biggest problem which I faced in the whole activity was accent problem because we all know that English is most spoken language in this world and every country people have different English accent and in ted talk it includes presenter from all over the world therefore it was challenge for me to understand clearly what the presenter is saying. Action plan In the end I can confidently say that ted talk activity helps me a lot in improving my listening ,speaking and critical thinking skills of English language and also improve my knowledge on some topics such as diversity in workplace and to overcome form from the accent problem I will carry out the ted talk activity for future benefits
