10th Week

Continuation of Module 2

This week is the continuation of Module 2. Everyone is given extra time to complete the module, I can see there are a lot of happy faces hanging on our faces. I guess everyone is glad with this. For me, I have finished almost most of the tutorials, I can temporary switch to relax mode for the moment. I need to have a rest 1st before continuing the tutorials. hehe....


So far, what I have covered for the modules are editing photos by using Photoshop, Photoscape and ACDsee. I really enjoyed the moment where I could crop the pictures, resize the pictures, remove blemishes on the pictures, remove red eye of the pictures, add special effect for the pictures and etc. The most exciting part is I can crop out my picture and put myself in a beautiful background, for example: North Pole, Sahara desert, Paris, Japan....haha...It is very fun and enjoyable.

9th Week


Raya Mood

Selamat aidil fitri
Kepada saudara serta saudari
Setahun hanya sekali
Merayakan hari yang mulia ini

Di masa bulan Ramadan
Kita berpuasa hingga sebulan
Pabila Syawal menjelma
Hari raya disambut dengan gembira


"Wishing all my Muslim friends Sela
mat HariRayaAidilfitri"

For this week, I guess everyone is still in Raya mood and some are still in holiday mood. I can see that not everyone is well prepared for the class yet. Haha....By hook or by crook, we still need to go f
or classes in UM.


When I fist stepped into the door of the computer lab, Haiqarl told me that today is the day for Module 2. So, I have to switch off my holiday mode and turn on the working mode. I guess I need the Energizer batteries. haha...


Okok...Back to business. Module 2...hmhm...quite thick too but not as thick as module one. I guess I still can manage it. Hopefully. Previous week, we had done computer, internet skill and audio editing skill, this week the focus is on photo editing using photoshop CS3, Photoscape and ACDsee and etc. I love photo editing as I can edit my pictures according to my preference. Therefore, with these tutorials provided by Pn Foziah, I manage to upgrade to a higher level in terms of my technology skill. hehe.....


Well, that's all for this week entry. Gonna off to work now..... Adeus......

8th Week

Here Come Another Assignments

This week we were not having class but we were given some tasks to do........Pn Foziah said this would be the task which we needed to complete during the Raya break. Every year, my holiday is filled up with lots and lots of assignments. This goes the same for this year too. Well, I was quite used to it and I was ready to face the challenge. Nothing can turn me down as I will always stay strong to face the challenge.

For the assignments, we need to complete Module 3, Teaching Aids and Lesson Plans during the holiday.

Module 3:
This module is on audio editing by using Audacity. Thank God that this time the module is not as thick as Module One. At least I can still manage with the other assignments. With Audacity, we can use it to record sound and add in other sound effects to make the recording more interesting.



Teaching Aids:
In this assignment, we need to create interesting and attractive teaching aids (technology and non-technology) from Year 1 to Year 3. The teaching aids can be in the form of picture cards, video, power point slides, stick puppets, task sheets, songs, video clips and etc. With the use of these interesting teaching aids, this can help to enhance the teaching and learning process.


Lesson Plans
:
For the lesson plans, we need to plan 4 lesson plans based on the chosen topic. (3 Lesson Plans for 30 minutes and 1 Lesson Plan for 1 hour) My group had chosen year 3 - Fun times and each of our lesson plans focus on the 4 main skills which are listening skills, speaking skills, reading skills and writing skills.

From the assignments given by Pn Foziah, I realised that it is important to have a good time management in order to complete the required task. With this, we can always make sure that we can finish the work within the time given. Do not procrastinate. Start to do now and don't wait until last minute.

7th Week

Continuation of Module One

For this week, we were allowed to continue our module one during the class. With this, we are able to complete the assignment within the time given. Really thank Pn Foziah for letting us to complete our module during the class. Still, I had a lot of steps which were not completed. I need to work harder on this in order to complete the task given.

6th Week

Surprise and shock were the two words which I can use to describe my feeling when I received the 1st module from Pn. Foziah. Oh my god, it is such a think module. A lot of questions keep on wondering in my head. Am I am able to complete the task within the time give? Am I ready for this challenge? Can I do that? I was quite worry at the first time. After Pn Foziah gave us some motivation and moral support then only I could stay clam to complete the task given.


In this module, we were required to focus on computer and internet skills. With this, we need to print screen the steps of completing the task, for example: how to download a song from 4shared.com. After going through the module, I found that there are a lot of things which I do not know. This has definitely widen my horizon in the world of technology.

Besides learning the steps given by Pn Foziah, we were allowed to put in extra information regarding computing and internet skill. This provides a golden opportunity for me to explore and learn more on computing and internet skill.
