最近剛入手了一整套哆啦A夢的玩具,所以死死下清掉了家裏共用書櫥的一個空間用來擺放。可是空掉了一個櫥格卻發現代價如此之大————一堆童書無家可歸。經過一輪的思前想後(明明決定得很爽快),就決定要將之全部送出去。畢竟我跟我妹都二十好幾了,這個年紀再去看這些童書說實在有點不甚適宜。所以想着放着也是放着,不如就乾脆全部拿出去送人好了。首先是看看家裏有誰人要,如果沒有人要,就乾脆放上這裏看有沒有人有興趣。
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.
不知不覺在這裡已經寫了快七八年,可是發佈文章的頻率卻越來越低。這樣下去總不是辦法,死死下也要找個方法繼續寫下去,不然可能撐得過今年就撐不到明年,這可不好。於是,在剛過去的元旦本人心血來潮,想起去年很喜歡的blogger跳坑玩一星期三篇的活動,於是想想自己大概應該可以完成,就開始到大馬部落在某社交網站的群組揪人。揪人的主要目的,是為了可以找一群人互相鞭策,然後跳坑這回事自然要越多人陪死才越有趣不是?老師都說過了獨樂樂,不如眾樂樂*開心轉圈圈*~
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。
(今天的语调要比较严肃)今天除了调整一下我的Final Year Project的程序流程外,今天做得最多的,就是更新本blog的界面。自从前几天放了13 pt的字体让大家眼睛受罪后,经过几天的调整后,目前的字体大小为11 pt。一些比较次要的讯息,比如说以前大家大概看到一头雾水的流量统计,Spam Blocker讯息目前一律隐藏起来了。首页的排版也经过稍微的调整,目前只是列出一篇最新的文章,其他比较旧的就在下面列出来。另外还有一大堆证明我是Web2.0网络人的一些东西,比如说我的Flickr、歌单、造访的朋友们等等。配色方面目前有些单调(虽然有一点撞色的情况出现,在调整中),而且很多blocks目前还是很四方。这一些希望在接下来的周末可以把它们一次过弄好。
认识我的人都知道我很喜欢把快乐建筑在大家共同的尴尬上,而最直接的方法是耍嘴皮子。与我同窗四年的同学们应该领教过我故意用词不当的坏习惯,比如说当我看到一个人很快乐,很兴奋的时候,与其说“你干嘛那么死鬼高兴?”,我会说“你为什么如此高潮?”。我说这快乐建筑在大家共同的尴尬上,是因为曾经有一次我在说这句话的时候突然间四周围真得一下子冷了下来(虽然大家会过意来的时候还是有笑一下)。
