Towards a 21 st Century Teacher.
Assalamualaikum and good day everyone,
It has been a quiet long time for me to start writing again as I am so busy to complete my official task in this IPG. Today I would like to share my experience about gaining our aims of becoming a 21 st century teacher.Last week I was in a quiet famous boarding school. I was invited with my friend to give a professional talk especially regarding pedagogy. I was really surprised that some of the teachers were not so alert about new methodology or even the personality that they should be or alike were not appeared. What I meant was they don't really put an effort to behave like a professional teacher, especially the way they dressed. So, when I reach home before I get to bed, I reflected that how are we teacher going to achieve the 21 st century teacher if we enjoy our comfort zone. Who are we hope to praise the novel profession? others who are always complain us, some body who are observe from far? or our own family in this education line. My answer is we ourselves have to respect first before we want other people respect us. meaning that start from today, we are all teachers must think and act like teachers, so that the victory, excellent, and the joyful of teachers job will growth again. Can you readers and viewers give some opinion on that.......DON'T YOU THINK LIKE WHAT I THINK?

What is Creativity?
An Ability. A simple definition is that creativity is the ability to imagine or invent something new. As we will see below, creativity is not the ability to create out of nothing (only God can do that), but the ability to generate new ideas by combining, changing, or reapplying existing ideas. Some creative ideas are astonishing and brilliant, while others are just simple, good, practical ideas that no one seems to have thought of yet.
Believe it or not, everyone has substantial creative ability. Just look at how creative children are. In adults, creativity has too often been suppressed through education, but it is still there and can be reawakened. Often all that's needed to be creative is to make a commitment to creativity and to take the time for it.
An Attitude. Creativity is also an attitude: the ability to accept change and newness, a willingness to play with ideas and possibilities, a flexibility of outlook, the habit of enjoying the good, while looking for ways to improve it. We are socialized into accepting only a small number of permitted or normal things, like chocolate-covered strawberries, for example. The creative person realizes that there are other possibilities, like peanut butter and banana sandwiches, or chocolate-covered prunes.
Creative Methods
o...o..oh..oh we discuss later, times is running out.... so long..

Making Friends- When you want to say "no"
Isn't it sometimes difficult to say no? How often have you found yourself giving up a precious Saturday afternoon, buying a silly subscription, accepting a dinner invitation, joining a committee or playing football with friends, just because you could not say 'NO!
For our own mental health and happiness, we must be able to say 'No' when it suits us - AND NOT FEEL GUILTY.' Saying 'Yes' when we mean
