Power rangers can never beat power point,no doubt~

Dear blog

So, here I am again, this kid is now bigger but not necessarily better, haha!

18th of July, I woke up in the morning (not so morning since it is almost 11am), kiss my pa n ma, and started to drive to UM with one question keep on banging in my mind, ‘how will Prof Maznah excites me this time? Entering the lab with people crowded just to get a seat is like a bless in disguise. I will need to ‘work my muscle’ for a seat but will later rewarded with ‘a song of technology’ by Prof Maznah.

But, I was later discovered that Prof has got something to do and will come in later by the day. I was quite disappointed. Then, a serene Ms Chin walked in and asked us to form groups of 5 because we are to be set a task on power point presentation. I formed a group of not so 5 with Soddiq, Muhafiz and Caroline. (sorry Ms Chin, we disobeyed your simple order, bad boys + a girl!)

OH CAROL! (+ine)

Let me tell you about Caroline, she is a student from Switzerland and learn English as 4th language (as foreign language) after German, Spanish and France and was previously studied in Indonesia. She came here financially supported by her parents. She has a small book of Malay dictionary and she frequently asked us what is this and that called in Malay. To a certain extent, she also asked us a favour of checking her sentences in which she wrote in Malay. She is a soft spoken lady, a well behave foreigner and a cooperative friend. The interesting fact about her is even though she is from Switzerland, major manufacturer of branded watch called ‘swatch’, but she is wearing a watch made in Malaysia, nice right? Lesson of the story, proud of our Malaysian product!

Ok, so back to business again. Other groups were assigned different topics to be presented such as ‘hotmail’,’ google mail’ and digital camera. We are given a topic on ‘video camera’ and were assigned to make a power point presentation about the topic. We have optimized the advancement of technology by using Yahoo Messenger in connecting with each other and discussing about what should we include in our presentation. By doing this, we make less noise, and doing more works, efficiency at its best, congratulations! We are good boys once again!yahooo!

While all the groups discussing the topics, Ms Chin went to group by group and check out on progress. Ms Chin has helped us in preparing a good power point presentation (she is so power (point) ful!). She guided us by giving tips of how a good power point should look like, some dos and don’ts of power point and choose of colours.

Later, presentations began and most of the groups have managed to come out with interesting and nice power points. However, due to lack of time, not all groups managed to present their slides, including my group. By not presenting, I don’t think it is a waste of effort, instead, I believe it gives us more time to improve on our slides. (i’m a believer...)

Today’s class is not much about input giving session but more to group works and independence learning. I am proud of the fact that my group manage to complete the task in the time given even though there is only 4 people in our group compare to other which in group of 5’s and more. I learned a few important things regarding power points. I also learnt new things from the presentation such as MSN messenger, which shares some common features with Yahoo messenger, digital camera and hotmail (another type of internet mailing).

I cannot say much about this class since not everyone in the same lab, we were divided into 2 labs, one with Ms Chin and one with Mr Shahril in order to save time and produce better works. Credit goes to Ms Chin and Mr Shahril who have made a dull afternoon becoming another interesting ICT class! Till then, see you in my next post, cheers!
