E-learning part 2
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.

e-learning?
Recently our English for Science unit’s lecturer posted an issue about e-learning at the college’s “e-learning” system (which is actually a blackBoard Learning System that is also used by many other colleges) and we are required to write a response to that issue. She also provided a link to a page that clearly explains about “e-learning”. Until now, I have really no idea on this issue since I am still reading that webpage while I am posting this.
If only looking at my college’s so called “e-learning” system, I really don’t like it much because it is not as useful as I expected. Blackboard Learning System is no doubt a good system handling “e-learning” things but it is not being well used at my college. I myself prefer looking for information at another websites rather than the e-learning system because there are almost nothing provided by our lecturer through the system except for some lecture notes / tutorial questions / assignment questions etc. I have a friend studying at another college and I heard from him that he can get a lot more things through their college BlackBoard System besides notes / assignments etc. And the participation of his lecturer is much better compared to my college. I found that sometimes it is very rare to see any lecturer to join in our discussion in the discussion board and probably this is why Blackboard System is not popular in my college.
But these are only some problems that only occur in my college, and this doesn’t mean that they will happen in other colleges as well. Therefore these cannot be the only points in my response to the issue, *sigh*. Now I would need to start thinking what to write and post them this Friday since I do not have much spare time because the units I took in this semester are quite tough (at least 4 credit hours) and I am definitely don’t wish the same thing happened as the “Introductory to Discrete Mathematics” unit last semester.

意念致殲 第五章 （上）
『深呼吸，然後想想你正坐在一片綠油油的草原上的一張躺椅。』
這是個熱得讓人受不了的午後，就算開了空調但這房間裡的人的臉上還是都沁出了汗珠。這房間甚是空曠，四周還靜謐得讓人有種無比鬆懈的感覺。舉目望去四周都是雪白的牆壁，這也讓本來就感覺很大的空間變得無比廣闊。在指引下男人癱坐在房中央的躺椅上，然後開始調節自己因為緊張而變得急促的呼吸。

復忘
“復國的希望，眼下看來也只能落在公主身上了。”
眼看魔軍即將來襲，一眾皇族人等聚集在祭壇上思考着接下來要怎麼做。祭司突而起來的這句話，使得所有原本焦慮的目光，頓時間變得熾熱，然後一起投向不知所措的公主身上。面對着整群人那種滿懷希望的眼光，這時的公主卻只能不由自主得往後退了幾步。誰知一個踉蹌，卻撞上了身後守護着祭壇的侍衛。可能是撞擊衝擊過大的關係，結果兩人就一起跌倒了。怎麼會是我呢？公主還來不及細想，眾人就在祭祀的指示下扶起了二人，然後送到祭壇上。

你可不可以……
我应该有少少透露过我的实习内容，到了这个阶段，我应该开始收拾task 1 的手尾然后准备我的2nd Task了。今天是第一次验收的日子，我今天为我的同事们demo了整个system的flow，结论是……^.^|||。一来是状况连连，二来由于系统的缺陷，所以让我一直很手忙脚乱去处理一些突发事件。由于我并没有决定权，在讨论一些细节上流程安排的时候，让我几乎想扯头发，然后把衣服撕掉裸身跑下街道，然后被抓，然后被枪毙……很夸张吼？我也是这么觉得……

原來，夢還沒醒
“你覺得，六十塊參加兩天的活動會貴嗎？”
如果說從話中聽不出憂慮，那我一定是騙人的。當然在此因爲身份的關係（嗯，個人今年參與一些籌備的工作），所以評論這部分交給其他人比較好。在這裏，還是回到主題說說即將要辦的這個活動好了。就這麼一晃眼，
七八年就過去了。相隔兩年後，這一次的回歸老實說沒有人知道迴響會有多大。當然，我對這個沒有概唸的另一個原因，是我徹底跟整個圈子脫節脫離不了關係。 -
製作特輯之心灵导师與男主角（二）
饱读诗书的老师从来不吝啬于给于他或跟他分享任何的知识，于是在老师不一定有空见他的时候，他就拿着老师开给他的书单到图书馆看书。当他开始养成阅读的习惯后，他总体的成绩也跟着提高，大跌了全校老师的眼睛，尤其是以前曾经以为他笨在课堂上公然奚落的老师们。难得的是，开始因为成绩变好而人缘变好的男主角并没有因此而感到骄傲，对于以前欺负他的人也从不为难，很快地他跟全班的同学都成了朋友。
