Every single things must start with introduction. Do you agree? Simple example: someone come into your house without knocking or greet to you? What do you feels? Confuse? Angry? Indeed. Same as teaching, it must start with with introduction.

The term is set-induction. Set-induction is crucial to trigger students` schemata (students` previous knowledge). As i said before, if not the students will be confuse and think what the hell is the teacher doing in front of the class?! Actually that is what i feel because it is not easy to grab students attention.

Everything must be a failure. That is my failure in the set-induction and it make me look like a clown in front of the class. sigh.. however we learn from the mistakes and try to be better for the next session. Set-induction is the starting point for teaching. If i ave already screw up from the beginning, the teaching is meaningless.. I try to be better!
