Few days ago, I posted up my response on the e-learning issue as requested by my lecturer. I was quite shocked after found out that not more than 5 people posted their response. Is this a sign showing that even though we are studying computer science, but we still do not appreciate and utilize the internet connection wisely? Or this shows that our e-learning system has some problem because it doesn’t help attracting students to login (in other word, it sucks)?
But then, I am quite impressed that there are people who rely on the internet resources in studying in my course. This is because in my college, we are rely on the lecturer for notes. If a lecturer does not provide notes for photocopying, then he/she will be in trouble when students evaluate him/her during the end of semester. Not many who are really interested finding out more on the subject somewhere else and this is probably why not many logged into the BlackBoard and post their response.
In my response, I pointed out that constant electrical supply is a main factor in order to make e-learning a success. It is quite insulting when we are already used to electricity black-outs even in this so-called “Advanced State”. Besides that, decent broadband coverage is also another important factor because not many residents in Malaysia are able to surf online with the help of broadband. Even one can surf using broadband, if he/she is using Streamyx’s service, then he/she will probably suffer from the constantly service down. Even though there are other ISPs providing broadband connection but they cant provide low cost connection. This is because wired connection that is generally cheaper is already monopolized by Telekom. In order to use other ISPs’ services, we will need to pay more for the hardware because they use wireless technology to deliver broadband connection.
If these problems are left unbothered, then I do not expect E-learning will become a trend in Malaysia.
上个星期上电台,因为没有准备到这一题,所以被吉安问到的时候我的确是一片空白——我要怎么概括我的2009年?刚翻阅我去年的年度展望,才发觉自己要做的事情仍然还有一大票没做完,反倒是没有在计划中的做了很多。另一个很有趣的问题,就是问到我2009年要用什么字来概括,我也只是很随便用了惊涛骇浪的涛字来代表这很风风火火的年份,反正怎么说2009年绝对不是什么风平浪静的一年。
最近不知道为什么,我爱上了写blog(可以从我每天都有post看得出来)。其实,在这之前,我不是那种喜欢写很多字的人,所以有点不解为什么自己现在为什么那么多东西写。
就如昨天吧,当我渡过了这几个星期以来最倒霉的一天后,我第一时间就把过程post上来,换作之前,可能一切都只会让它过去罢了咯……其实朋友群中,“得空”写Blog的没有多少个(当然也有人不屑于写blog)。虽然是有点寂寞,但是我习惯了,所以也没什么(不要问我为什么习惯了,当你常独处你就知道……)。
不知道正在看的你抱着什么心态?我曾经作出一个假设,喜欢看人家blog的都有某种程度的偷窥的性格,呵呵,不知道你认不认同呢?
我发现我有点越来越不能坦然面对这次申请的结果,尽管之前也已经做过最坏的打算。已经两个个星期加快一天了,大学网站是说两个星期内会知道结果,可是到现在仍然了无音讯。莫名的焦虑其实早在上星期五开始(也就是满两个business weeks后开始),尤其是刚好该大学寄送了一则科系推广的广告邮件过来后开始(其实我在怀疑自己其实一直都在焦虑,到了星期五才突然间整个大爆发)。
『這次就不玩這麼大了,就他吧。』
轉眼間,這句話從女郎口中說出來已經是二十多年前的事情了。這次的見面,有點像是中場統計檢討雙方在這場賭局的勝算。這男生能如此堅強地活到了現在可說是奇蹟,儘管人生中面對了那麼多次的波折。雖然還在那麼小的時候經歷了喪親之痛,可是卻仍然無阻他走向光明的前程。
