my fiRSt bLoG

July 2,2007 ( Tuesday)

1. What are the new learnings/discoveries that I had learned?
* There are many things thatI had learned in my Computer IV this first quarter. I had learned the important events, personalities and discoveries in the history of Internet and the services and tools that the Internet can offer to us. I had known the steps and procedures in finding a website and using the different search engines. I had discovered the hole in the wall by Sugata Mitra, a chief scientist at the NIIT and the significant findings and the implications of the experiment during our hands-on.
2. What are the problems/challenges that I had encountered?
* There are some problems that I had faced in this subject. One is in memorizing the dates and events in the history of Internet. In minding the Internet, it was so hard because we were three in one computer and we only had a short time in doing it. We took too long in in searching the meaning of tundra and the reasons why bush Administration so interested with it. We don't know whether that tundra is a type of soil or a car.
3. How did I address the challenges?
* To overcome this problems , I'd studied and analized well the dates and events in the history of of Internet every night. Everyone in the group cooperated and helped in doing the activityand we did it fast. We just chose the type of soil in tundra and copied the findings.
4. Moving on, I will........
* I will continue my very best in studying my lessons and be more active during class discussion and activities. Presence of mind is neede in times of challenges.
