SmartBuilder

This is the best part of this subject because things are getting rough as this software needed us to get used to it and we have to create a software of our own later. I discover this software is quite challenging because of variety settings insides. in order to make it run well, we need to make sure the command is right and in correct order so the things go according to sequence.

 I get it quite hard to follow the steps because sitting way back at the classroom prohibit me to keep an eye on the very tiny cursor pointed to.

 However, this software can be very useful and it is a pleasure to get revealed with it. the software can be quite easy with nice UI and good memorisation during lesson, I guess it is enough. We learned on how to link from one page to another, add pictures, do background, use roll-over button another simple stuff.



Godspeed, apple seed! ❤

Now we have hit the ver last part on Internet Technology subject, I shall say it is a huge relieve but having time learning with Madam Azidatun is such a pleasure. Thank you for assigning the quiz by end of the semester too hehehe. To be honest, I'm not a tech-savvy but my curiosity is at its best so it is fun and interesting for gaining knowledge learning this course. I have better preview on CALL topic, how to create a courseware using SmartBuilder, podcast and Powtoon. Most of the tasks given were homework so I was also struggling with time management this semester, glad I made it! Wohoo! Here's the snippet of our last task: Last but not least, thanks a bunch to Madam Azidatun for her never ending patience, guidance and kindness throughout the semester, you rock! (even though you're preggie) THANK YOU FOR EVERYTHING! xoxo Hasta la Vista, peeps! ❤

Podcast

I ever heard of podcast but never really knew what does it means. Well then, this class taught me that basically podcast is an audio or video file (mp3, mp4 etc) that is published or "broadcast" on the internet. The funny thing is I know what it is as I get engaged with the internet but the term itself I seldom used. During the lecture, I discover that it is used to promote self-study and independent learning which made it compatible material to be used with CALL.  So let's move to the advantage of using podcast. As a degree student, I would recommend using podcast for study because it is accessible as long as you have had good internet connection. Whenever and wherever you are, you still can gain knowledge and information. In addition, you possibly get extra information from what you have gotten in the class lecture, if and only if you make the effort to rely on super easy way in finding info.  Other than that, I think podcast can also be helpful for note taking.
