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.

分组结束
分组的事情暂时算告一段落了，我也不要再这样激心了，就不管他们自己怎么分，我就和另一个我信得过的组员组成一组就算了。至于本来蓝组的另外一个，就自己去join了绿组。结果就成了2-2-4的局面啦。暂时来说我算是满意的，不过后来接踵而来的功课就真的要吐血了。首先是道德的presentation，是关于Sexuality，然后主要集中在婚前婚后性行为。婚前性行为很容易，但是婚后性行为要我们呈现些什么呢？接着是VB.NET的系统编写，这次写的是诊所系统。

迟了两天的生日快乐
很久没浮上来写写比较贴近自己内心的文字了，这阵子在这里已经几乎不想是个人在经营的网站，毕竟整个情绪的表达都变得很平面。本来想很high来写点什么，但发觉自己好像在过去一年除了工作上让我感觉我还生存着外，其实个人根本就冷感到跟一张纸一样。最近自己再度让自己私底下的生活投入在很多事情上，比如床头目前已经排着三本不同课题需要短期内消化的书本，手上的玩具project也终于在整个想法已经成熟后开始投入开发。

爆谷电影小summary
出了上一部Angels and Demons外，本人最近也看了两部爆谷电影，分别为趁生日月死去看的免费电影——Fast and Furious 4和自掏腰包的Wolverine。到这里为止，大家想必也知道为什么这么久后的现在本人才发观后感吧，嗯，就是因为这两部有点普通。
