Week 2

DATE: 20th JULY 2010

PLACE: cOMPUTER LAB 1


This is my SECOND WEEK in UM. There are so many things to catch up and to get use to. I am still adjusting myself so that i will be able to adapt the new environment in UM. The most crucial thing is i have to get myself updated with the technology tools because every day, we will be engaged with computers.

During the resources class, Puan Foziah asked us to select a LEADER and a TREASURER for our respective group which is group 2. Unfortunately, NOBODY ARE WILLINGLY to volunteer herself/himself to be a leader.
HAZWAN was dominated as a leader and DOMINIC was volunteer himself to become a treasurer.Dominic was asked to collect the money for the book.

Puan Foziah explain to us about the skills in using the keyboard. This was a new experience for me as I did not know that, if we used a correct way of using keyboard, we could type faster than before. Actually, if we take a look at the keyboard, the letter "F" and "G" was the center of the keyboard. The left hand was responsible for "F" territory only, meanwhile the right hand side was only for "G" area.

the correct position


Puan Foziah told us that our right hand is more stronger compared to the left hand side. This is why right hand covered large area so that, we will not get fatigue when typing. The position when typing also important where we must be comfortable. Our hand need to be at the same level with the keyboard in order to avoid from fatigues.

Week 1

DATE: 13 JULY 2010

PLACE: cOMPUTER LAB 1
SUBJECT: INTRODUCTION WEEK( week 1)
LECTURE BY: PUAN FOZIAH


We were having a short briefing about this subject by Puan Foziah.She gave us some introduction and tried to make us feel comfortable with her. For the first class, we were combined with both groups before we were divided into two groups. It was difficult for her to handle us, 75 students in one class. But, I think it was not a big deal for her to brief us because she have many experience before .
First and foremost, she told us what we were going to do regarding to this course. I thought that we are going to prepare some resources/material for the lesson just like the name of the subject. But, after the briefing, actually,we have to do all the resources by using IT and of course I have to learn more on how to get use to ICT.

The first thing, we were asked to create was our OWN BLOG for this course.Then email the link to the lecture's email.
We were asked to Photostat some books that we are going to make it as our revision.We were also asked to install Adobe Photoshop CS3, Seriously, I don't know how to use this software. I DON'T KNOW many things actually!hmm. And lastly, the most important thing, we were told to have a THUMBDRIVE at least 8GB. And we have to get all that ready by the following week!!Seriously, I'll take all these as a challenge .I hope everything will be ok;p



I think that's all for this moment. I hope the next week , I will become more interested towards this subject and I will become more energetic in class!huhu;p
