COMMUNITY-BASED LEARNING(CBL) PROJECT.


On the forth week of the semester, we did our first presentation focusing more on the activity that we have planned since past week.The topic that was assigned to us is about  Awareness of Genetic Modified Organisms(GMO).Through the whole week we searched for any activities, games, simple experiment that can be related to the title and as the result we managed to list out a few activities with the flows and the setup.In general, we have discussed on the previous week on how we are going to execute the project where we have decided to invite students from nearby secondary school whose in the science stream and at the same time, to make them as our target group for us to spread about GMO awareness.But, before we create the awareness,we plan to introduce to the students on what is GMO all about.So, in our first presentation, the activities relate on what is GMO,how it has been produced and all the particular details relate to GMO.Overall,our presentation slide still need improvement, since there were also few ideas given by our lecturer.So, we concluded to have another presentation after the improvement.

COMMUNITY-BASED LEARNING(CBL)

On the second week,we were introduce to the community-based learning,which is a new strategy of study under the subject Applied Plant Cell and Molecular. CBL is an activity that we,the students of this course, need to plan a project where we can spread and benefit the knowledge of the our field of study to the community.We were told by our lecturer that we will be assessed for this project individually and group work. The assessment will cover on the objectives of the assignment,whether the objectives achieved or not later, the team’s final product such as reports and presentation, the group processes where the commitment will be evaluated, able to meet the deadlines, fair contribution and effective communication among group members.However, even this is new to us,we accepted the challenges.As we were introduced to this project, we looked on the compulsory matter that need to be taken into consideration such as the budget and others availability.
