KMS

I just reflected on what Ms Teo said in lecture...so i decided that i should have some constructive blog entries online. So here goes....

We sort of got together in class, and discussed about the topic of e-learning activities. Well basically we went through the lecture of this topic and what was interesting about it was the word "skimming". "Skimming is obviously hugely important. But sometimes you should swim, not just skate on the surface - David Weinberger" That's what was in the quote...which is cool! lolz!

The benefits and disadvantages were obviously there. This is what we discussed in tutorial:
- It is consistent.
- Students' Response is definitely different.
- However, different teachers talk about different things.
- MAIN ADVANTAGE: Despite wherever you are, e-learning activities can be assessed as long as you have internet connection at the place you are.
- Some stuff you can do on e-learning are web conference and email.

Basically my personal view on the effectiveness of using of MEL as a tool for learning the KMS module will be justified now. I feel that MEL has indeed given us lots of opportunity to actually express our works such as our group project reports. Lectures notes and tutorials have also been effectively helpful in a sense that we dont miss details of the lecture even before it starts. However there is one thing that i feel that is not good enough is the consistency. Why cant lecturers who post the stuff on MeL standardize a format for students to follow. For example, the dates of the lecture folders could actually be shown so that it's easy for students who are "blur". Isnt that better?
