::Week 11::

Hi there..

Here we meet again in this 11th entry.Remember the video editing task that I have mentioned before?Now it was done!Hurray!My partner and I have worked and gave our best effort in completing the video. It felt so good to see the outcome of it. Hehe. This week was kind of surprising week for us. We knew that we need to do video editing, but waht we did not know that we have to upload the video that we have created in madam's folder in the fromt computer because madam said that we are going to watch all the videos that has been created and give our comments on it. And I was like "Oh..my..God!". I was so embarassed that the video that my partner and I have produced will be viewed by the rest of my coursemates. Haha. Actually, all of us felt the same though. Luckily my friends gave some comments and told me how to improve on it. I really enjoyed watching others' video because I knew that all of us had put in a lot of effort in completing this task..yippee~~

::Week 10::

Hi there..

Today not many people came for the class. I was not sure whether it was due to the workloads given or they were just merely lazy to come to the class. Well, even though not many of us were present, but the class still going on as usual. We did presentation on the article taht we were assigned to. My group's article was about the internet and the use o it among teachers in eduation. During the presentation, I cameto realize that form the statistics, we can clearly see that the use of technology especially the internet still not an option for the teacher to use it in the classroom.The teachers should be exposed of the use of the technology to enhance the learning, not replacing the teacher's role in educating the pupils. Apart form that, I also got the chance to hear from other groups' presentation of different articles which contributed to my general knowledge. I was so relieved that the presentaion was over.Phiew! Now my partner and I can focus on editing the video(video editing task).Can't wait to see the outcome of it...:-)

::Week 9::

Hi there..

After done with the eBook and audio editing, this week we were assigned to do a video editing. This task is a pair work task. Once we have decided our partner, madam showed us several videos from our seniors as an example for us and also to give us some ideas on how we want our video to be. Next, in pairs, we were to discuss and create a storyboard about our video. It was easy to think of an idea but the hard part was to create a storyboard out of it.Both my partner and I were blurred at first but we managed to come up with the making the nature as our theme.We consulted madam about our idea but did not get approval from her as there were some weaknesses in our idea. So, both of us worked on our idea to improve it. We have planned on what software to be used in making the video and how we want to do it. Hopefully, the outcome of it was fine..:-)

::Week 8::

Hi there..

Huhu.There were lots of things to do to complete the assignments given by the lecturer. As for the assignments, we were asked to do audio editing (individual and group), photo editing, and e-Book. This time we need to compile everything in one. Double work for us as we need to do the tutorial in both format, powerpoint and also words. The challenge came when we need to edit the audios(group work) because I am not familiar with those audio editing software. Besides, our task was to remove the background noise and improve the audio quality. I started to get headache already, luckyliy my friends were there to support me. I took it as a challenge and I dare myself to do it. I am more than satisfied to know that at the end of day, what I did was worth it. I am so happy..:-)

::Week 7::

Hye there..

Here we met again after a wonderful one week break. Hehe. During the holidays,I was struggling myself to complete two tasks : photo editing and E-book. As a person who is not a "techno-savvy" person, I faced some problems when it came to photo editing as I was not very familiar with the software Adobe Photoshop. Luckily my lecturer gave us about one week to re-do everything. So I took the chance during the holiday to understand and learn more about Adobe Photoshop. It was very interesting. Unfortunately, I could only download the trial version of the software. So sad.Huhu. Well, on the E-book side, the problem came when I wanted to present the idea to the lecturer. Although mine was rejected, Madam did give me helpful tips on how I could my ideas. Thank you, ma'am! :-). I have uploaded my E-book. Personally, I think that E-book is one of the resources that the teachers orr educators can use in order to enhance the teaching and learning process. E-book can be an interesting and meaningful tool for the teachers because it is up to the teachers' creativity on how he or she wants it to be like. For me, it is like a digital storybook. Very practical and convenient..:-)

::Week 6::

Hi there..
Here we meet again. Last week I put my knowledge of photo editing into practice. Hehe. Being a person who was not into this techno-savvy before, I only knew the basic things on how to edit a photo. But this time, our lecturer gave us the freedom and room to explore our own creativity and blend it into the photo. It was not as easy as I thought. Huhu. The first thing that we were asked to do was to explore the software which was “FxFoto”. Personally, I found that this software was not as user-friendly as the other photo editing software such as Adobe Photoshop or Photoscape. There were limited features in the software but it still can be considered as good software that we can use in photo editing. I am still in the mode of exploring these photo editing software and learn new things regarding technology..:-)

::Week 5::

Hi there...
Everything seemed to be in a fast pace now as we need to prepare read and prepare the slides for chapter 2, 3, and 4. Three in a row! Of course, lots of work needs to be done now so that when the exam is coming around the corner, we have fewer things to do. Hehe. What I like about Pn.Foziah is, she made it compulsory for us to change the group after finished doing a task. Unlike the previous presentation, this time I worked with new group members who I rarely got a chance to work with back in IPIK. This way is good, in my opinion because we can have the chance to feel how to work with other people, and at the end of the semester, we have worked with everyone. It is a good strategy!
