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.

婚•灭
才踏出安的家门，泪流满面的安就疯狂地奔了出来从背后紧紧抱住森，任由因止不住哭泣而抽慉不已的身躯牢牢地贴住他的背。一面把满脸眼泪擦在森的背后，她一面哭求着森不要离开，说是没有了他就活不下去。很是心疼的森忍着快要决堤而出的泪水，慢慢地把安的手握着，强压着哽咽的语气要求着安把手放开，说这样对大家都好，可是天晓得做了这样的决定森也已经辗转难眠了好几天。

是不是投了X黨就會有這樣的馬來西亞
跳坑進行了數月，這幾個星期已經有幾位戰友快寫無可寫了。於是，有人就開始出來呼籲說是不是能出個命題作文之類的活動。想想其實設立了題目也沒關係，所以自幾個星期前開始就嘗試在跳坑戰友的幫忙下每星期出一個題目。延續這活動的歡樂元素，雖然說是“命題”，但是其實也從來沒強迫說參與者一定要寫。不寫其實也沒關係，反正雖然我揪跳人偶爾會出題，也不見得有那個時間和篇幅寫出來。

黃色的街頭公民課
說起淨選盟發動的遊行，我就想起前一次聽到的一些言辭。先說第一段，第一段的主角是兩個在咖啡店高談闊論的安哥。這段對話讓我記住的，只有兩句。當然確切用詞我不可能記得，所以這裏只說大意。簡單來說就是甲問知不知道某日遊行的事情，然後乙回答哎呀就是馬來人打馬來人啦。當然事情的最後跟阿伯的想象很不一樣，但是這是後話。

幸運不幸運
這陣子開工了，所以我又再次經歷在車裏聽廣播的生活了。昨天在轉臺中聽到的話題，是關於健康意識之類的。剛開始聽得有點煩厭，大概是因爲主持人剛好接到的叩應一直在迂迴地宣傳自己吃的保健品多棒什麼的。所以聽沒兩分鐘我又轉走了。後來兜兜轉轉之後，我又轉回這個頻道。間接直銷的內容沒了（其實剛才說的聽衆也在主持人的把關下沒辦法說出品牌名字就是），換成了個罕媽打電話進去。

频尿的死仔包
我不敢把自己称为小王子，或者什么公子哥儿之类的，所以勉为其难之下，就自称死仔包好了（明明就是很享受的样子，还在装的死仔包）。没有啦，这次只是要记录一下自己原来也是可以如此频尿。如此频尿，算是我这么大个人以来，第一次，接近天天都在重复又重复，重复又重复，我为K迷着想，还要repeat，再repeat，这旋律才算最强……离题了，刚才说到重复，就是天天都在重复一直上厕所的……不知道应该说是习惯吗？
