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.
哇……终于考完了第一张,有点解脱但是不是完全解脱的感觉,呵呵呵呵。今天考的是最没把握的英文啦,其实难也不会很难,但是整张纸对我来说并不是很简单,哈哈哈哈。不过反正对这张纸的期望不高,所以并没怎么失落。所以呢,嗯,总之加油吧!
不过考试前却不是那么顺利了,塞了一个小时半车后,竟然发现我的车爆胎了。而发现的情况也不是太早,是在我载了同学,然后在添油站添油的时候才发觉到的。哇哈哈哈,我竟然迟钝到连自己的车已经爆胎了也不知道,真的是一流咯(而且还不是第一次)。要换的时候却忘了整个步骤,因为我老豆第一次教我的时候已经是两年前,而这两年来我都不太记得,只是大概记得要做什么,步骤则忘光光。在这里要感谢Regina的老公啦,不过Regina,不要以身相许的吼……
下个星期就是大牌考卷的开始,希望自己能够顺顺利利,而且出来的成绩不要跌破3.84啦……,不然我会很伤心的,虽然3.85是不太可能的了。
在被罵之前,首先我得承認我是標題黨員。是這樣的,前陣子在網絡上,看到有人揪去聽聽看台灣的同志出版社(基本書坊)的社長(邵祺邁先生)暢談當地同志運動發展的二三事。想說有個素未見面的blogger也曾經在這家出版社出過書,所以便去問問看(其實是想要盧他現身,是的我很八卦)。結果抵達Jalan Panggung的時候(是說Moontree house的所在也太隱秘其實是我眼睛長錯地方),在這條一百米不到的街道上我還時花了五分多鐘的時間找這家café(我竟然還到在六號門牌和月樹在底層的招牌前翻開相關通告找地址)。
「快點啦,車來了!」
「剪刀、石頭、布!」,還沒看清楚對方出什麼,女孩得臉頰就突然一陣燙。一個淺淺的吻,就這樣如同蜻蜓點水般稍縱即逝。那一下來得如此之快,叫人根本來不及反應。呆在當下的她,此刻顯得全然不知所措也完全不懂如何反應。伴隨著那一吻的,是男孩立刻逃走的一陣風。此刻站在長長的階梯底端的這位同學,整個臉脹紅成了一大片番茄般的顏色。一直到接送的鄰居安娣抵達了,同車的夥伴找了半天才找到仍然愣在原地,手掌還維持著張開出拳為「布」的這位同學。
有时候我也不晓得我到底真正要的是什么,我想很多人会陷入如此的痛苦想必也是拥有同样的疑惑。这几天,除了星期六日,我都在忙着去面试。说忙也不算很忙,基本上我的面试都在半小时到一小时内结束。最让我意想不到的,是星期五的那个面试。我记得他问了我一个问题——“你到底要的是什么?你的兴趣到底在那里?”。这个问题可能当时我还不能了解背后隐藏的涵义,但是我想经过了这两天的面试我的确应该好好给它想一想。我目前的状况,很庆幸的是我不像我的朋友五份interview四份要请他。我找工作的方向都是专注在网页开发这一个范围内,所以以下的全部都是web-development公司,姑且以ABC代号著称。
