USER

Teachers also known as the users of the system, use the system to aid in their process of creating the lesson plan. To begin using the system, the user are required to register for the system. Then the user need to login to begin creating the lesson plan using the system. To create a lesson plan in the system, the user are required to select the subjects and year which is in a drop down list. Through that selection the system will retrieve the ontology that will be used. The users are then required to select the learning area followed by the topic. The topic listed in the drop down list are based on the learning area selected by the user. Next, users need to select the learning outcomes which is also in a drop down list. The learning outcomes are according to the topic chosen. Based on the chosen topic, the objectives for respective chosen learning outcome will be displayed. The users are able to choose appropriate objectives. Once the objective is chosen, the objective can be modified by the user if in case there is anything to be added or to reduce.

In conjunction with the above criteria’s, users are then required to select the desired lesson plan component which will be then search all over the web based on the ontology defined. The lesson plan component in the system are provided in a tab-form which consists of three main categories which is the induction set, learning steps and closure. As for the learning steps there are few categories consists of content, activities, method and techniques, ”KBKK”, teaching strategy, values and teaching materials. To be taken into consideration that not all the component are needed to find throughout the web. Users are able to choose the specific component to be searched. The chosen component will lead them to the search result, the user than can select the appropriate link to be used in their lesson plan. When the link is clicked the web page will be displayed, so that user can retrieve the desired information and include to the tab area. The information can be modified by the user or use it as it is. As for teaching materials, the search result will be for example in worksheet, video or slide and etc. The users can click on the link which will be then pointed to the resources whereby the users can download to the local directory (laptop or pc).

After gathering all the required component, all the data are then transferred to the another form which is known as the standardised lesson plan template. The component that the teacher had not search in the net can be filled in by the user. Finally users will be provided with the “SAVE” button as well as “PRINT” button whereby teacher are then required to choose the lesson plan to be printed in .pdf or .doc format.
