Learning Unit Module 6/7

Featured Replies

Anyone doing these? 

I'm in
Module 6, Batch 1, starting July 3rd - Sept 3rd, with the Seminar from Sept 13th - Sept 14th.
Module 7, Batch 1, starting Aug 7th - Oct 15th, with the seminar from Oct 18th - Oct 19th.

Would be interested in hearing from anyone who has done them before on whether there's much work involved with these, and any tests or assignments etc, or if it's just something you just cruise through to tick the boxes so to speak.
And if anyone is doing the same course, perhaps can share some info/resources to help with any tests or coursework which are required for them.

Also if anyone sees other batches come up on the One App, please post up, as I'd love to register and complete all 7 before they decide to change the system on me again.

Yeah that would suck, I'm trying to change schools so will try to do it at that point as I'll then need a new waiver. But as of now this is all new, you are one of the many who will be the ones providing original hard data for this new concept, looking forward to see how it goes for you. Do share what you find

I'm going to put some notes in here to help others who might do these modules in the future.

Just started Module 6 today.
There was an "Orientation" at 4pm on Zoom.
From the sounds it's very important that everyone attends any group conference call.

Looks like there's a 2h "homeroom" time each week when everyone needs to be online.  These were initially assigned to fixed dates, but in our homeroom session afterwards we asked the teacher if we could change the dates (Some people had other module homeroom sessions on the same days, others had special class etc), and the homeroom teacher agreed but apparently krusapa wouldn't let them change.  Apparently the people who had other things to do could just login briefly for a screenshot though and then go to their other module's class if they needed though.  Also the homeroom teacher said that they thought the homeroom sessions would likely only take about 20mins, despite being assigned as 2h.

However, we had to "check in" at the start of the assigned time for the orientation, and then "check out" shortly after the end of the assigned time for the orientation, despite finishing 30+ mins before we were meant to, due to something in the system.  Checking in / out was essentially just logging into module 6 via the ONE app and then clicking green buttons to proceed, not difficult or complicated despite having no idea about how all this works.

I think it was mentioned that there are 72x videos which students need to watch, but I might have misheard.  You can start viewing the videos straight away, some of the guys who had done other modules were already upto 10 or 15 videos watched by the time we started the orientation.  From what I gather you have to play them completely, and then even maybe go back to re-watch the final 1 minute of the video to get it to count as ticked off.  They suggested it's important to get these watched early, incase you don't have time later on, and I assume you can always go back to re-watch them if you need to know the content.

Looks like applicants need to score 60%+ to pass, and there will be 4x assignments which must be completed (in addition to attending homeroom meetings + watching videos online) as well as a 2 day seminar at the end of the course, and an exam.  Breakdown of how your grade is calculated is:

30% seminars
30% assignments
30% exam
10% attendance

With watching the videos being part of these too (I can't remember which part though).

Assignments are along the lines of below:

1 - Look at your school's educational quality framework (Thai document you can get from the school), and then say what it is and whether it's appropriate for your school + why.

2 - Explain the process of your school to ensure that the educational quality standard of your school plan is met.  Then explain how you, as a teacher, can act or do as a teacher to ensure that school standards are being met.  You've then got to show them how you would do this, and how you would assess success etc.

3 - Review the results of the school's latest school assessment report and analyze the strengths and weaknesses of your school, and provide recommendations for improvement.  Then state how you as a teacher could do to improve the quality of your school.

4 - Write about your learning experiences that reveal your understanding of the quality of educational quality assurance, designing and implementing educational assurance in schools & the use of evidence and evaluation results for educational improvement.

Also registration for the next 7 modules will apparently open in October, as one of the people in the class had asked Krusapa and that's what they said (But didn't give a specific date).

One thing which seemed to be a common theme from those who have done other modules already, was that it can be a lot of work if you signup to a lot of different modules which overlap.  Some people had 3+ modules which were overlapping, because they were doing 4, 5 & 6, and although the start dates are staggered, they overlap.

Anyway, that's my experience so far.  Figured I'd post up so that others could benefit from the knowledge.

Good on you for the share. So looks like it's best to do one at a time. But what about if you work at a learning centre, not an official school? I've been offered a job at one closer to the main city (I'm currently in the middle of nowhere). Would you still be able to do these modules working in a learning centre?

Looks like a joke. Here in Siberia none of that nonsense whatsoever.

You need to have a temporary teacher's license from krusapa to register for the course.

I'm not sure if you use a teacher's license when teaching at a language school, so you might not be able to.

Yeah I need the license just checked, can't do it.

- Update - 
I've finished all of my assignments etc for Module 6, in general:
- 4x Assignments initially seemed very challenging, but they're sorta designed to be done with the assistance of AI (One of them you have to analyze a 300+ document that's all in Thai).  As a result, they weren't as tough as they initially appeared.
- Lesson Plan was relatively easy, just taught a class as I usually do, but filmed it, and then matched some appropriate theory to fit with my lesson.
- Exam was relatively difficult, but it's online and you can resit it as many times as you want, so it isn't that tough.  Also if you're only aiming for a passing mark of 60%, then that isn't too much of a problem.
- Watching the videos was easy enough, since you can just keep them open on a second monitor rather than having to actively watch.
- Homeroom classes (online) turned out to essentially just be turning up for 10-15 minutes so that the homeroom teacher could check attendance and then people would ask any questions they had about the course etc.  For those who didn't have questions, they could just go after the picture was taken.
- The main problems some people had was with their own schools, as some schools wouldn't supply the documents they needed for the krusapa assignments, or were hesitant about allowing the teachers to film a lesson.

So now I'm just waiting for the seminar at the end of the module and then I'll be finished the module.

Module 7
Just had my orientation for this today.  It looks like the university running this module is taking a very different approach, and this will involve a lot more work.  As there are 7x different assignments + the lesson plan / video.  Also it sounds like the homeroom classes will be 90 minutes long, with an expectation of active participation, although I'll find out more in 2 weeks.

Also for anyone who does the 7 modules, when you go to orientation, everyone is unsure about how to "check in" and "check out" at the start / end of the orientation.  Below is a video which shows how to check out (And it's the same process for checking in).

Well done bro, that <deleted> sounds annoying as hell though. Just got the new job at BKK finally can move out of my ****hole, but I'm gonna have to be enrolled onto a module for my new visa. What would you say is the easiest module to do? 6? Honestly, 7k bhat per module, and having to do all of this rubbish you described, I'll definitely just go home and do my PGCE for a year to cut through all this BS.

 

Appreciate you sending through the updates though, best of luck, but yeah imo, may as well just get PGCE, fight it out for a year of hell in the UK, come back laughing with a higher salary.

 

Looking forward to hearing from you soon, peace

3200 per module.  So significantly cheaper than doing a proper course.

A proper course would be exactly that though, a proper course, and likely much better as an enduring qualification which you can use internationally.
If all you want though is your full teacher's license in Thailand, then the 7 modules are pretty convenient, relatively cheap and not too much work.

Just as an update on this, I'm doing my first seminar now.
Workshop would probably be a better term for it though, as rather than listening to people speaking they have activities for us to do as well as a little bit of homework each day.

This one (Module 6) is relatively relaxed and I doubt that anyone who actively participates for the weekend would fail.
So just a weekend spent on zoom rather than doing whatever you'd have otherwise wanted to do.

Sly I gotta ask, if you don't attend these weekend seminars, what are the consequences apart from failing the module, can they revoke your visa based on your attendance?

 

It's obviously a money grab and eats into weekend time which is the only time teachers have away from work, any thoughts?

So you guys have to jump through all these hoops just to make $1500-2500 a month?

One weekend isn't a biggie.  But yes, you'd obviously fail the course.

In saying that though, from the 1x seminar I've been to, it wouldn't necessarily be that difficult to not fully attend a seminar.   E.g. If you had a couple of hours of special class to teach during the middle of it, you could likely tell your homeroom teacher and provided you still completed any associated worksheets + they knew you'd been actively involved in the course at other times, they would probably be ok with you dipping out for a bit to teach etc.  But it'd be at their discretion.

Most teachers in Thailand are essentially unqualified, with just a bachelor degree in a random subject.  That's fine for a few years, but to teach long term teachers in Thailand need to get a proper teaching license.  In order to get their teaching license within Thailand they've setup these modules which teachers can do if they didn't study education.  They're significantly less work / effort than what would be required to get qualified in a Western country.

For some it might open up higher paying jobs, as a full teaching license may allow them to teach at some of the lower to mid-tier international schools.

How often do these weekend seminars occur? Every Saturday?

Once per module.

I'd probably recommend doing the 7x modules over 2 years (Or even 3), rather than 1, as this would prevent the modules from overlapping as much which will reduce the pressure on you significantly.  If doing the modules over 2 years, then that'd just 3-4 weekends a year (For 2 years), which is pretty relaxed.

Just signed onto module 1, how do you get through it with the least amount of investment? Im gonna go home in a year and just do PGCE

That's interesting, as when I saw your post just now I went to check and none of the modules were showing as available for registration (And aside from your post, I haven't heard anyone say that registration is open, although it is meant to open up sometime this month).

But if you're going to do a PGCE in your home country next year, then you don't need to bother with a module unless you need an teaching license extension and they'll only grant one if you show proof of signing up for the modules.

Exactly this, I just got granted my Non-B application just by showing I tried the register lol, got my cake and ate it for once

For anyone who wants to register for the 7 modules, registration opens on the 20th of October

https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1AtfiUyGrH/?mibextid=wwXIfr

The English version of Module 1 filled up in about 3 hours after registration opened at 10am.

For anyone who does want to register for one of the upcoming modules, try and follow the Krusapa facebook page (In the link above), so that you can see the announcements prior to future module registration.  Also the registration is via https://khuruplatform.ksp.or.th/en/ now, instead of the ONE platform that was used over the past 12 months.

To register on the Khuruplatform.ksp.or.th site you can watch the video below to help you, as a lot of the registration process is in Thai.
