Saya tahu sudah lambat tapi apa yang nak dirisaukan
hari-hari pun hari guru (ayat cover). Kecuali hari Sabtu dan Ahad. Eh tak, cikgu pun
kena bertugas hari minggu sebab ada koko, mesyuarat, mesyuarat, mesyuarat lagi,
LADAP (latihan dalam perkhidmatan), hari sukan, hari carnival keusahawanan,
hari yang-saya-pun-tak-tahu-apa-namanya dan lain-lain. APA-APA pun saya ingin
mengucapkan SELAMAT HARI GURU kepada
guru-guru seantero dunia dan lebih-lebih lagi kepada guru-guru di Tadika Seri Ayu, SK Taman Sri Gombak, SK
Seafield 3, SK USJ 12 (banyak pindah sekolah sebab nakal… tipu je) SMK USJ 13 dan pensyarah di Universiti Multimedia. Tanpa didikan,
herdikan, teguran, belaian, pukulan cikgu-cikgu semua siapa lah saya. I think I
turned out okay cikgu. So no worries… hahaha. Terima kasih tak terhingga saya
pun tak mampu membalas jasa cikgu selama ini mengajar dan mendidik saya. Semoga
cikgu-cikgu tabah menghadapi cabaran mendidik anak-anak bangsa dan mengurus dan
mentadbir sekolah.
It ain’t easy I know (my mom is a teacher herself so that’s
how I know). Balik rumah bersedialah untuk mendengar aduan penuh emosi dari
mama saya. Curse the 40-annoying-students-in-a-class-times-a-few-other-numbers!!!
(Owh I used to be them). HAHAHAHHA… and
there’s the paperwork (at one time it seems pointless), and the struggle to
keep up school’s performance both academic and co-co and to achieve ‘sekolah
kluster’. My mom complained that now that she feels that she work to impress
people (to show the school is great) not because she wants to do it sincerely
or for self satisfaction. Not that it is a bad thing but somehow you work for
the reward not to get the reward. Get what I mean? Let me show you:
Work à
Self satisfaction à
Happy à Perform
well à
Reward
This how things should be, not:
Work à
Reward à (in
this case, not happy) à
Not performing well àStress
Lebih kurang macam tu lah. I know it’s not as exact as what
is written in management/human resource text book but good enough. And what’s with the management problem and
dispute among teachers, being teacher is not easy. To all the teachers
going-to-be I just want to say good luck, be strong and be creative in your way
of teaching. Owh, my dad once dreamed of becoming a teacher (never know that
before). Anyways, dear teachers, I’m sorry if I’ve ever annoy, upset and disappoint
you before. You know being a teenager, I’m not always sane and perfect all the
time. Teenagers have those moments when we grow up and think
that ‘why on earth I did that at school?’…hahaha :D
So yeah, teachers, keep striving in your profession. You are
one of the best individuals in the world!!!

Your student
Hmm.. looks like somebody is dabbling with motivational theories :P hahaha! doing something for the sake of others is a form of extrinsic motivation which is not a very good thing. because then that behaviour becomes externally regulated and as time goes by may cause reduction in intrinsic motivation which is when all love for the behaviour or activity is lost. this can also be related to the flow theory whereby it is stated that if the challenge is equivalent to the skill possessed, one would feel enjoyment when doing that task. however, if the skill possessed is unequal to the task difficulty, one would either end up frustrated because he/she is unable to perform the task or feel bored because it is simply too easy. therefore, in order to maintain a healthy flow the task difficulty must match with one's skills and slowly increase so that the person is more motivated to pursue the behaviour for his/her own enjoyment and betterment :D
