This is the first time I wrote reflection in this semester. Well, first of all I would like to say “THANK YOU VERY MUCH” to my Information and Communication in Science’s lecturer, Mr Azmi. How I am going to narrate his contribution? Let us flash back into the beginning of the semester!
Suppose this course is not included in my plan to register, however due to certain reason, I forced to register in this semester, it was 21 credit hour, such a busy semester. However, the first thing come into my mind is how the lecturer look alike? Is he or she? Fierce or friendly? Whatever it is, I have to force myself to call up lecturer to ask for the available “seat” in this course. Miracle is happened, when the call was answered, I heard a very friendly voice and welcoming to his office for signature. Everything are negotiable and do not have the haughty manner like some of the other lecturer. From that moment, I know he is a good lecturer.
Well, my predictions are correct! During lecture time, he devotes all his energies to explain the contents to make sure everyone of us are understand. During the arrangement of the laboratory time table, Mr Azmi was flexible enough allow us to enter whatever session, from Monday to Friday. Mr Azmi try to be best of his ability to fit us in every session. No matter it is lecture or laboratory session, Mr Azmi manage to deliver the contents very effectively.
The only negative feeling in this course is “tired”. This is because Mr Azmi constantly assigned assignment for every 2 weeks and we have to submit 10 pages report as well as presentation. However, over a period of time, I felt it is worthy because I learned such a lot knowledge that I didn’t learn before. The simplest example is Stella software. I am sure 90% of my course-mates do not know about this at all. With the teaching of Mr Azmi, I felt myself has higher merit which not only know about the contents in books. From the first class until the last class I attended, Mr Azmi always an enthusiastic supporter in term of giving advice in each and every one of our assignment. One thing that I most appreciate is, Mr Azmi never stands on his dignity, instead he act like a friend to guide us in every assignment so that we manage to achieve the best in his subject. He never rejected to teach us!
In this course, I do really learned a lot that I never think and touch before such as discover the smart school system, problem based learning analysis, movie maker and Paint software, Stella project, blogging, data logging and so on. The smart school projects analysis exposed me such a bundle of knowledge in this direction, the advantages, disadvantages, integration of ICT in either non smart school or smart school. Maybe to certain people, blogging is the routine of his or her life. For me, this is my first time to explore the blogging, with the guidance of Mr Azmi, I manage to decorate my own blog, upload video, insert music, graphic and etc. In the simulation project, I learned how the system simulates the experiment without wasting a bundle of time as my teacher did in traditional classroom. Furthermore, the data logging also bring benefits to me in which technologies making the lesson in the school become splendid and outstanding. Through all this experience, i know that in future I can use various way, various method to color my lesson plan in school. I can use Stella system to simulate experiment, data logging to conduct experiment, utilize the skills of making movie by using picture, edit picture using Paint and another more! This subject really brought a lot of beneficial not only me, but for each and everyone who taking this course. I hope in future we still manage to consult Mr Azmi if we facing any ICT problematic or difficulty. Last but not least, I am really appreciates for his teaching and every devotion in our class. Thank you.
