Introduction

Salam w.b.t [-o<
I'm Nurul Hazianti Muda. From Terengganu. I'm the 3rd child in the family. My favourite past time is chatting. ahaks! Alright stop that crap Gee, this is an academic blog. huhu ~_~ Other than that, I do know how to format a laptop if that could be call a computer skill. :D However, I could say that I'm a semi-pro in using the microsoft office software. Well, most probably because that's the basic in computer skills I guess. I'm still improving myself in those field, however.

In answering about experience in learning via the computer, I could say that I'm not that lucky person. I did not know anything about computer only after my father bought me a computer when I'm in form 1. At that time, I only know how to use the Print Artist software because that's the easiest software that my father had tought me. I did not have any chance in learning about the computer while in the primary school. My school did not even have any computer lab at that time. *poor Gee* In in lower secondary school, I did have a chance in learning about the computer and I did learn a lot during those years. Only in the upper secondary level, I'd created my first e-mail account (WHAT?) Yes. Only in form 4 I'd created my first e-mail account. *again, poor Gee*

During my practicum last semester, I did use technology in my lesson. I noticed that my students will be more interested in my teaching if I show them something animated like videos and power point slideshows. I also incorporated the lesson with songs in which they could enjoy the songs while actually learning new things. Students are more cooperative whenever I utilize the technology in my lesson.

In my opinion, the use of computer or technology in language teaching is indeed is a must. Students will be more interested to learn and plus, they could also absorbed better when all their senses are stimulated. I am lucky because my practicum school is equipped with the LCD projector in each class. Thus giving me the opportunity to use this technology as my teaching aids.

My expectation form this course would be to gain more computer knowledge and skills in which i use in the future. Especially in blogging world as well as web designing and html. I'm looking forward for this course and hope that I would pass this course with flying colours.
