7th week


Last week’s 'fever' is still on till this week. Yes, I am still working on the module 1. As Pn Foziah said, I kept on thinking about the module wherever I go and I spent a lot of time working on it.


While working on the tutorials in the module, I realised that there are many things that I am unaware or do not know about internet and internet skills. The module was an eye-opener for me into the world of technology especially internet skills. Through the module, I was exposed to many software and also websites which will be useful for me as a future teacher.

The software such as Audacity which is used for the encoding tutorials is amazing. YES, there are a lot of things that we can do with this software. Since this is the first time I am using this software, I was really excited to explore the software and learn new things from it.

The websites such as ‘Photobucket’, ‘4shared’ and ‘esnips’ are totally new and unfamiliar to me but with the examples given by Pn. Foziah, I managed to sail through the tutorials with very less difficulties.

There was some confusion while doing the tutorials but it was not a big deal as I still managed to complete the tutorials. The confusion may be due to some changes in the websites as they upgrade the websites. Whenever we face any difficulties or confusion we were required to write comments beside the slide and I did so. The comments will be very useful to improvise the tutorials in the future.


The only part where I found most difficulties was the file conversion part. In this part, we were required to convert files into different formats such as MS WORD to PDF, PDF to PPT and so on using software and also some online conversion websites. This was a real new experience for me; I do not know anything about these till the time I did the tutorials. Besides that, some of the conversion could not be done exactly as in the examples given by Pn. Foziah which makes me to look for different alternatives to convert those files. At last I managed to complete the tutorials.


Although the module took a lot of time to be completed, when I look back at the completed module, I feel so happy. I can see my hard work on each and every slide. WOW that’s really amazing.
