Week 4 - Lab 2 : E-learning

• Does multi-tasking give you a real or false sense of having accomplished something? 

If you can do multi-tasking, definitely you will feel a sense of having accomplished something as it shows that you are able to complete several things in one go. However, in my opinion, being able to complete several things together doesn't means that all of the things you done are in 100% best condition. Maybe you are in a rush to complete all of them so your aim is to just COMPLETE them and might not give it all your best shot. In this way, I rather do things in focus by complete each one of them individually so that I can give 100% concentration to them. By able to complete all of them in my best form, then I will feel a real sense of accomplishment. 

• Is learning 3D and design different from learning programming, or is all learning the same?Why?

All learning is the same as we all have to have the basic learning attitude in order to learn. By saying learning attitude, I mean by focus, positive and determination, of course there is more of it but this 3 attitude are extremely when it comes to learning.

But there are two different of learning, one is the theory and the other one is practical. For theory, all we need to do is remember the contents of what we learn but practical is different. Like learning 3D and design, we all have to practice more in order to do well, not by memorizing the instructions will help us in our work. 

• The article states that “Learning is actually a very complex operation for an individual”. Do you agree with this? Do you feel that you approach your learning in the best way – if yes, how, and if no, how can you change your work style?

Yes, I agree to this as many things have to be done when it comes to learning. For example, the condition of your mood, environment, weather etc. Even the smallest things can stop you from learning, maybe the television is playing your favorite movie and you will feel might just stop your work and watch the movie instead. 

So it takes up a lot of effort in learning, you have to be disciplined and focus when it comes to learning and every one have different style of learning. For me, I prefer to do my work by my own, plug in my earpiece and listen to music as I do my work. I won't be interrupted and I can really concentrate on my work. 

• What are your thoughts about the last paragraph in the extract? 

s   I extremely agree the last paragraph in the extract. I think that communication is the most important factor in all kind of things. Without communication, we will fail in a lot of thing. For example, business. In business, communication plays a important factor as the seller have to communicate with the buyer to promote and convince them to buy their products without communication, is hard for both parties, the buyer have to judge by what the see of the product and the seller will have a have time to sell their products.

• Should your lecturers also focus on your work attitude, or just leave you to sink or swim on your own? Why?

     I think that lecturers should also focus on our work attitude as students are still young, sometimes we will be lost track and if the lecturers are there for us, they can guide us to the right direction. As lecturers are mature adult, they understand things better than students hence, they can tell where we lacking of and advise us so that we can improve ourselves better.
