Contributions Of Technologies

I am sure you can understand what I intend to say in the title of this post... Yes!!! You are right... Thanks to the modern technology, we can keep on touch with people who are far away from us.

With technology, I can keep in touch with my parents who are far away at Penang. Imagine if its 20 years back, without handphones, I'll need to carry a huge box of coins hunting for a public phone on the street. I wont be able to call them late at night as it is not that save to move around PJ late at night.

With these inventions, I can keep in touch with friends who are far away, upload and share photos, blogs via Friendster and Facebook. By doing this, they don't seems to be that far away from me. Just a click on the keyboard and I can see how is life getting on over that side of Malaysia or even over seas!!

I do hope that one day all these technology can reach all schools in Malaysia including those in the rural areas. Smartboard, a very good tool to assist teaching and learning but till now there are still some of the rural areas in Malaysia that do not have this kind of facilities... Every children in Malaysia should have a equal opportunity to be exposed to the same teaching and learning materials and tools to ensure the effectiveness of their learning.

BRING SMARTBOARD TO RURAL AREAS IN MALAYSIA!!!

Still Trying Hard...

I am still trying very hard to cope with the different style of teaching and learning in UM especially courses that involves ICT skill such as technology and resources.

Checked on ADEC again few days ago and was surprised to see that we were required to upload a post test for the SMARTboard training session and a review on our video assignment... Sad to tell, i miss both the deadlines... Sorry to the person in-charge of this...

Maybe I am just bad in coping with new things, but I hope i can get use to checking the webpage as often as possible and the new style of learning. Pray for me that i will cope with all this and be the first to update info on ADEC next time before the semester end.

Learning is a life long learning process... See, now I am learning to do everything online and try my best to be techno savvy!!!

Wish me luck!!!

My video is on youtube!!

Finally, after working so hard ( or laughing so hard) on my video, I get to see it on youtube. This is my first video in my life that was made by myself and uploaded onto youtube!!!! Excitement are unable to be described with words.

Watched the video with a couple of my coursemates and nobody recognize the main character of my video!!! A success for me cos i am not suppose not embarrass anybody with my assignment.

No comments yet so far... I still i hope to get some comment on how to improve on my video because this is only my first time doing something as such...

Sharing is caring... Do care for me n share some ideas with me that can help me do better...

I love the bear in my video!!! EXTREMELY CUTE!!!

Still not done with my video assignment!!!! HELP!

Arghh!!!

Help me!!! My assignment is still not done yet....

So know i realize how important is it to be techno savvy. I suffered while trying to work my assignment out on windows media maker. Though i know what software is Window Media Maker is all about but still I don not have enough experiences on how to make a very good video out of it.

By now i can only tell that i am done with my recording of my video. Thanks to my dear senior for willing to appear silly in my video but i am still having doubts whether to hand in this version of my video that is half way done. I still feel that I might ruin my dear senior's life by getting this video uploaded onto youtube. How? Still i had a great time recording the clips with my temporary roommate Connie and my senior. The atmosphere was filled with laughter until all of us were so tired after I had got all my clips done. THANKS to both of you, Con and Jarrod!!! Love you guys a lot!!!

Windows Movie Maker, a very unstable software as i need to safe the project after every changes that i had made. My laptop goes 'not responding' almost after every changes i had done to it. I can hardly remember whether this is the 10th or 20 th time redoing the whole thing. Sob...

Any how, i had great fun with the process of making this video 'English with Prof. Sio-- Fruits'(video name not confirmed yet)... Those who watch the 'making of' of this video will surely laugh until you get stomach ache... HAHAHA!!!

A stressful assignment done with lots of joy and laughter... Loving it!
